"About three weeks ago 1 was taken
with severe crick in the back. For four days
was unable to turn in bed without help, and
when lifted up could not stand on my feet / was
inducedto try ATHLoPHoRos, after all the usual
remedies failed In 20 minutes after taking the
first dose could bear my weight upon my feet.
In two days was able to get about and attend
to business. In two other cases which have
come to my knowledge its use has been attended
with the same results"
A poor man in Philadelphia had to Dor
row a dollar to buy a bottle of ATHLoPHoRoS.
On account of his poverty his name shall remain
secret He had suffered terribly from Rheu-
matism. He gratefully writes:

and on Wednesday, after but seven doses, 1 had

the dose one-half and took the remainder of the
bottle. was able to be steady at work till Sat
urday, when took severe cold and was un-
able to use my left hand. purchased another
bottle and by bedtime found relief. The
medicine is all you claim for it,"

yet the fact remains, that it is doing what

little or no rain falls. At Babrin the
arid shore has no fresh water. yet q
comparatively numerous population
contrivcs to live there, thanks to tho
copions springs which burst forth from
the bottom of the sea. The fresh water
is got by diving. The diver sitting In

around his left arm, the hand grasping
its mouth; then he takes in his hand =
heavy stone, to which is attached q
strong line, and thus equipped, no

over the strong jet Of fresh wafer. he
springs up tho ascending current. 1t

hauled up. and the divcr, after taking

A 1Iiser's Folly.

A1VOA IL GACSO NoyS HOW III tu0U II
found the man who distru is National
banks and hides his money in old
clocks and shoes and under the carpet.
Last week Roger Meredith, an old
farmer out in Flint township, came
into his house after q brief visit to the
woodshed. His face was ashy pale
and his whole manner indicated in
tense excitement. He called feebly
for his wife, and when she appeared on
the scene he demanded:
Where is that old wood stove that
was out in the shed all winterp''
why. I sold il" said his wife, sit

knockin' around in the way, and q
peddler came along last week an
made me an offer for it and sold II. y
sold it?' gasped the stricken old
man, ''sold it!''
Then with q violent effort to control
himself he added:
'How much did you git fur it?"
"A dollar and quarter" replied
his wife, in tremulous tones. twisting
tho corner of her apron.
Him." said the old man, in con-
tented, satisfied way, HIM; dollar ma
quarter; good enough. Gimme the
money. got to pay my road tax this
afternoon.
And the dame shelled out the du-
cats, and as she watched her husband
make q straight shoot for the cross
roads grocery, she smiled the extrava-
gantly-innocent smile of a guileful wo-
man and said:
III pap only knew that got 1915
for that stove and 81 for the old sled
irons and the wagon-tires he wouldn't
work lick for week.
But just suppose now that old Mr..
Meredith had had 500, 900 in United
States bonds hid away in that old
stove? Would he ever have had the
heart to work again. But he didn't;
he never had SO at time in all his
life.
