AFFAIRS AT THE NEW HAVEN POST
 OFFICE.

The building in New Haven which does duty for the accommodation ef the post office and the United States courts was erected thirty years ago. While not as magnificent as some of the later and more costly government edifices, it is solid and convenient. It was we'll adapted to the purposes for which it was built. But in recent years the business transacted within its walls has increased to such an extent that much more room was found necessary. To this end it was decided not to pull down the present building and build 8 larger one, but to erect an addition. The work is now going on under the super vision of Postmaster Sperry. When com- pleted the building will be one of the most ample and commodious of all the govern ment buildings in the country.
 The Hon. Nehemiah D. Sperry has for over twenty years been postmaster of New Haven, and has performed the duties of the office with conspicuous faithfulness and marked success. No man is better known or more highly esteemed in social, financial or political circles.
 One of our correspondents, called on him s few days ago to learn what he had to say about rheumatism. Said Mir. Sperry: "Yes, indeed, had rheumatism, and had it for some time. It was principally in my shoulder, and for long time the pain was very severe. About two years ago heard that the new medicine, Athlophoros, had done much good to many who had suffered from rheumatism, and concluded to try it. The result was exceedingly gratifying. It drove my rheumatism entirely away. Other medicines had only given me partial relief But the relief afforded me by this was complete. Since that I have had no return of rheumatism worth mentioning.
 "My daughter was laid up with rheuma- tism, and suffered much. Athlophoros did for her what other medicines seemed pow erless to accomplish. have very high opinion of this remedy, and I hear it very highly spoken of among my friends"
 From the post office our correspondent went to the store of Messrs. Thomson & Co.,, whose fre-proof safes are famous throughout the New England States. MT. G. G. Thomson, the head of this firm, narrated his experience substantially as follows:
 "For a dozen years, at least, was great sufferer. Rheumatic neuralgia would frequently attack me, generally in the legs and feet, and for the most part very suddenly. Sometimes the attacks were by day and sometimes by night, destroying all hope of sleep or rest. I was often compelled to remain away from my business for days at time, for walking was so painful as to be almost an impossi- bility. To get rid of my excruciating pain, I tried many of the medicines adver- tised for the relief of such things. When | look over the list of all that I took, I wonder that am still alive.
 "At last I took Athlophoros. None of the other things had done me any good. Here was novel experience. must say that I had no faith in it, and that I tried it merely as an experiment. Two doses of Athlophoros had a marked effect in removing my pain. continued taking the medicine for about ten days, according to directions, and by that time the pain was entirely gone. I could now sleep in peace and rest in comfort"
 "Since that time, MT. Thomson, have you had any more trouble with neu ralgia"
 "None to speak of, except in occasional returns, which are altogether different from the old torments I used to suffer. Sometimes I find myself sort of barometer in changeable weather. A few twinges of neuralgia pain remind me of former times. have found that Athlo- phoros gives me relief from these tempo rary attacks. I am told that Athlophoros has done great deal for others; but am particularly concerned in what 1t has done for me. It is now nearly two years since it first gave me relief, and very cheerfully say that I believe Athlophoros s the best medicine know of for rheuma- .ism and neuralgia"
