Blessings come in many forms, and some
times in disguise, but Athlophoros, the new
and successful specific for neuralgia and rheu-
matism, comes to perform exactly what is
promised for ito timber stffened Joints and
reinvigorate the action of the muscles swol-

from rheumatism.

Blessed be the man who invented sleep, and
blessed be he who discoN cred Athlophoros,
for the man or woman afflicted with rheuma-
tism or neuralgia would be unable to enjoy
the benefits of sleep were it not tor the aid
of this great specific remedy. Mr.. c. S.
Starr. of 20 State St. New London, Conn
writes of friend OF his, for years sufferer
from rheumatism, who, after taking one dose
of Athlophoros, with remarkable results, re-
peated it at bedtime and was able to rest all
night long. This he had not been able to do
for years.

Advantages that AYERS SARSAPARiEEA
Possesses over all Others.

1t is composed of the most efficacious
Alternative, diuretic, and tonic drugs known
in pharmacy. among which are the
genuine Honduras SarsaFarila, Yellow
Dock. Stil,ingia, and the Iodides of Potas-
sum and Iron.
1t is a highly concentrated medicine,
scientifically and honestly compounded so
as to secure to it the highest degree of
activity and perfect uniformity.
1t has received the hearty endorsement
of the leading men in the medical profess
sion, who recognize it as a standard phar-
maceutical preparation, and prescribe it
in their practice.
1t contains no poisonous minerals or
other dangerous drugs, the use of which
for temporary effect in the many crude
and cheap mixtures sold as alternatives,
produces effects on the system often worse
than the diseases they are offered TO cure.
1t costs no more than any other, but
would still be the cheapest blood-purify-
ing medicine in the world, even were its
price three times greater, since it is the
only one that does real, lasting good"

1t has been before the public for nearly
forty years, and has constantly grown
in popular favor, both at home and
abroad. until there is hardly place in the
civilized world where it has not a host of
friends, made so by its marvellous cures.
1t has been used in. and approved by,
at least 100000 families in the United
States, and 7,0O0, 900 throughout the world.
Women have especial reasons for com
mending it.
1t has proven its potency in curing
obstinate, deeply-seated, and loug-stand-
ing diseases caused by yitiation of the
blood. 1t must net, however, be en-
pected and is not claimed that a single
bottle will cure such cases; but patients
should persevere in the use of this remedy
until a radical cure is effected.
1t is the only blood-puritier that has won
and retained the confidence of the people
of all tropical countries, where such medi-
cineS are much required.
1t is the only medicine of its class that

a petition is to be circulated among the
business men in the block bounded by
Fourteenth, Main and Water streets and
Alley 0, and presented to Council, asking
it 10 take some action towards specifying
what style Of u building the Pittsburgh,
Wheeling & Kentucky shall erect for its
rev freight depot. The ordinance is not
at MI explicit in this regard. 1t merely
states that the right is given the road to
erect another and larger freight depot on
certain grounds. The petitioners rccos=
nize the fact that q frame building will
necessarily have to be erected, but they
want it rooted with lin and such other
precautionary measures taken MS shall
guard against fire as much rs possible.
The block mentioned is one OF those on
which frame buildings nre prohibited, and
thu depot is just on the other side OF
Water street. Powder and oil is often rc-
there and n fire would endanger
the buildings in the block.
