THE HAPPINESS OF LLY5lUI

| L!yslum was the name given by the an
cent Greeks to the resting place of the
| Righteous dead, where they should enjoy
! eternal peace and happiness. None but
the pure in heart, thetruthtul and the gen
erous could tread the asphodcl meadows of
Of the Elysian fields and ii was land of
everlasting delight. When, therefore, Mrs
Kate Sherman, Of Streator, Ill.,, said re-
Gently that she had been in Elysium,
though of course she spoke figuratively, it
argued that some great good fortune and
joy had come to her. And such, indeed,
was the truth. Mrs. Sherman tells how it
was III this way:
81 have suffered from inllammatory
rheumatism for more than thirty years.
Heretofore the pain would succumb TO the
application Of hot wet flannel, but at my
last attack circumstances had conspired to
agSfavate the disease and | became help
less. My hands and feet were swollen
enormously, and | suffered almost mortal
agony, My physician brought me bot
ne OF Athlorhoros. After taking the
third dose was in Elysilm, and was free
from pain. BY the time / had taken
bottle and half felt so wonderfully i'm
proved that | discontinued the medicine.
l have an ungoyernabIe dislike to all med
irine, but willsay that Ath,ophoros prob
ably saved my life, as was running down
rapidly, and could not have endured the
pain much longer. 1t afforded me the
only relief ever experienced except from
hot water, and that bad failed me-
The Kew. Samuel Porter, of Crete, Ill.
says OF the effect OF Athiophoros upon his
wife:
Mrs. Porter was very much benefited
by the ilrst bottle. Before she commenced
taking 1t she could not walk, she was so
badly afflicted with rheumatism, but she
was soon able to walk. She sleeps we'll.
Mr.. John llews, our neighbor, was very
badly otfwith the rheumatism last winter
and was not able to work or even to get ont
OF his room. One bottle of Athlophoros
cured him, but he has to keep it by him to
take when he feels his old difficulties"
Another clergyman, the Rev. c. Hart
ley. of Huntley ILL.,, gives this US his ex-
perience with the remedy:
For six months | suffered severely
from an attack of rheumatism. A friend
sent me notice of several reliable cures
elected by Athlophoros. | procured the
medicine, ana less than one bottle COM
pletely cured me, and | have not had the
least indication of return of the painful
disease. have recommended it to others
case have followed. lregard Athlophoros
as invaluable"
A. M. Blakney, who lives at the cornero of
Union and Green streets, Decatur, H.,
only confirms the general testimony to the
value of Athlophoros when he saws:
During the past winter was stricken
with very severe attack of rheumatism
disease with which | had been afflicted
forseveral years-and was rendered almost
helpless, and confined to my bed. | tried
various medicines, and was prescribed for
by physicians with no avail. Finally |
was induced by my druggist to try Athlo-
phoros. l was relieved and cured so
quickly that words could not tell my sur
prise do not hesitate in recommending
it to any one suffering with that most pain
inl complaint, rheumatism" >,
