America.
If the alliance of the three emperors,
of Austria, Russia and Germany, holds
out, what can the rest of Europe do?
The Balkan and other eastern and south
eastern provinces have been led into the
combination, giving- three emperors, it
is estimated, a fighting force of little
short of 12,000,000 men. It6eemstobea
, combination of eastern Europe against
western Europe and western Europe
has the weakest end of the continent.
France, Italy and England together
have a fighting strength of hardly 8,000,
000 men and France has not been on the
best of terms, historically at least, with
either Italy or England. The disposi
tion of Spain and Portugal and Holland
and Belgium and Norway and Sweden
and Denmark in event of an outbreak of
a general European war would be prob
lematical. They would try to remain
neutral, probably, if that should be pos
sible. Spain hns enough to do to put
down the insurrections in her colonies.
Norway and Sweden are practically
isolated from the rest of Europe and
could profit by their situation end loca
tion. Holland and Belgium would be
right between the contending powers
in northern Europe. The natural affilia
tions of those two little but populous
countries would be with western Eu
rope. Belgium is half French and Hol
land has no love for Germany, for Ger
many is generally suspected of having
designs on that country.
At home England might have trouble
with Ireland, the Irish leaders would de
mand large concessions or give the rul
ing island a great deal of trouble. On
the sea, France, Italy and England com
bined have two-thirds of the naval
strength of Europe and could sweep
everything before them, but tht great
war would not bo fought on water, but
cn land and that land in the. vicinity of
the Mediterranean. In the divisipn of
the spoils, for it would be a war of
spoliation, Russia and Germany and
Austria would belp-themselves and the
rest would get nothing. .
Such might be the course of a general
European war, which, according to
many statesmen versed in foreign
affairs, now seems probable. It would
be the most destructive war the world
has ever seen.. France and Germany
could not fight on the same side and
Germany and England could get along
no better together, for the anti-German
feeling in England has become acute.
Germany and France have contended
and may contend again for territory,
but Germany and England may in the
future contend for the commerce of the
world. Such at least are the hopes and
ambitions of the Germans, who have
already gone everywhere with their
wares. In- the general European war,
Greece and Turkey, who would have
been the cause of it, would be lost sight
of.
What effect would a European war
have on America? At first the effect
would be increased prices for all-American
products and manufactures. Eu
rope would eat everything that this
continent could raise. Millions of men
would be taken from the producers and
added to the consumers. Prices in this
country would go up with a bound and
stay upw This is no doubt alluring to
some Americans. But in the end would
it be a blessing to this country? We
think not. The increased prices would
be a benefit to some, but a hardship to
others. We have oonsumers as well as
producers, in this country, and if the
former receives more for what he has to
sell, he would also pay more for what
he has to buy. And after the great war
was over would come a period of de
pression, sooner or later, the steady
consumption of American products
would be interfered with, because of
the disturbed industries '. and condi
tions. It is now generally recognized
that action and reaction ere equal. f
America's position in event of at
great European war would be that of
strict neutrality. "It would be a strug
gle in which we could take no sides,
and in which our affections would be
greatly divided, although the prepon
derance of sympathy would be with
the nations of western Europe, both be
cause they are nearer to us geographic
ally and nearer to us by race and
blood. There would be plenty of
work for the American navy, however,
to protect our ports from marauders,
and to protect the rights of Americans
abroad. Iowa State Register.

In a Glasgow car was an aged Irish
man, who held a pipe in his mouth. The
conductor told him he could not smoke
but he paid no heed. Presently the
guard came into the car and said; with
a show of irritation: "Didn't I tell you
you couldn't smoke in this car?" "Well,
Oi'm not smoking." "You've got a pipe
in your mouth." "So Oi have me feet
in me boots," replied Pat, "but Oi'm not

SKINNING RATTLERS ALIVE.
The Process Necessary to Take Off the
Skin in the Best Condition.
Reuben Etters, game warden for the
Spruce Run Rod and. Gun club, of
Bellefonte, Pa., lately told of experi
ences he has had with rattlesnakes.
Speaking of snakes in general, he said:
"I fear copperheads, because they do
not give warning and can strike with
out being coiled, an act not possible
with any other specimen of the reptile
family. Copper snakes are invariably
found along the water and never make
an effort to escape, no matter how good
on opportunity they may have. .They
prefer giving battle to anything that
may cross their path.
"Rattlesnakes, as a rule, are found
along the rocks away from the water,
and they never strike before giving
warning unless surprised; neither can
t hey strike unless they are in coil. Oh,
yes; I kill many rattlers every sum
mer. Last summer I slaughtered some
thing more than 200 big. fellows, and
I skinned every one' of them alive. I
always akin a rattler alive, because in
killing them first you can hardly avoid
spoiling the hides, and rattlesnake
skins are becoming quite Valuable of
late. The process I adopt is this: I
place a forked stick over the reptile's
head and hold it to the ground. Then,
placing the stick under the pit of my
arm, I catch the snake by the tail with
one hand and with my pocketknife in
the other hand I rip it open on the
belly from the tail to the head. Then
loosening the skini from the body at
the tail I place my foot on the stub
and yank the hide off in much the same
way as vou would skin an eel. X
tackled a big one last summer, and
before I could get control of its tail
the reptile succeeded in coiling itself
around my arm a third time, and came
near getting its head out from under
the forked stick; but I finally stretched
it end secured the skin without- a blem
ish." N. Y. Sum. . ..

really no trick about it. Anybody cm

neys, malaria or nervous troubles, we
mean he can cure himself right away by
taking Electric Bitters. . This medicine
tones up the whole system, acts as a
stimulant to the Liver and Kidneys, is a
blood purifier and nerve tonic. It cures
constipation, headache, fainting spells,
sleeplessness and melancholy! . It is
purely vegetable, a mild laxative, and
restores the system to its "natural vigor.
