A JOYFUL NEW HAVEN TAILOR.

There are no "misfts' at the establish
ment of Kraft Brothers, the tailors, of Cen
tire street, New Haven. Everybody in
Connecticut knows the reputation of these
gentlemen for good work and for reliable
ity. Cheerful and busy men they are and
closely attentive to their business.
To look at Mr.. Henry Kraft as he is
now, briskly and busy, attending to the
details of store affairs, nobody would sup
pose that he had been great sufferer from
rheumatism. But such is the case. He is
now a perfectly well man, and therefore
his story may be of interest to those who
have felt the tortures of rheumatism as he
did. One of our writers spent an hour
with. him not long ago, and listened to the
narration of his experience.
az have had several severe attacks of
rheumatism, which were SO bad as to lay
me up, and have had great number of
lesser attacks of it. It is cruel disease,
and assure you am glad to be rid of it.
NV first attack was about six years ago.
Ny last attack was somewhat over two
years ago. It was q big one. had taken
a severe cold, and the rheumatism came on
suddenly and with great sharpness. In
the previous attacks l had never used
Athlophoros, for had never heard of it.
But now had heard that there was such
a medicine and sent for Mr.. Searles who
makes it, and 1 asked him to be my doc
tor. Mr.. Searles said he did not attend
anybody as physician, but he sent me
bottle of the Athlophoros medicine with
directions how to take it. Oh what
sweat / had when / took that medicinei
Why, 1 sweat all night. My pain had
been chiefly in my side and the calf of my
leg, and when it took me suddenly it would
knock me over. In this attack the pain
had extended pretty much all over my
body. In the morning after took the
Athlophoros 1 had no pain above my
waist. With towels my perspiration was
wiped off, keeping the upper part of me
cool and dry. 1t seemed as if the pain was
going out by the way of my feet Now it
was in the lower part of my body. Within
forty eight hours after had taken my first
dose of Athlophoros the pain was all gone.
1t left for while sort of a tingling in my
toes, but before long that was gone, too.
"Well, in my joy at being rid of the
pain suppose came out of the house too
soon. Tell people they ought to be care
full about that. I had more pain, although
not nearly as severe as what l had suffer
ed. / went home again and stald for two
or three days, taking more Athlophoros.
When l came back to the store l was per-
fectly well, and since that have had none
of the trouble, except some sharp pains
which catch me once in while, just for a
moment. feel bit of a twinge, and then
it is all over. These pains are not severe
enough to make me feel the need of any.
more medicine, though 1 keep the Ath-
lophoros and would take it if my pains
were to return with any severity. 1 be-
ieve the great cause of the pain is gone,
and know that the Athlophoros made it
"Do I believe in Athlophoros, then?
Well, you may say do; and you would be
sure of it if you could hear me recommend
ing it to my friends. There is one man
over at the Court House, can't think of
his name now-but everybody knows him
there. He had rheumatism so bad that he
couldn't stand up. One night / met him
in street car. I told him about Athlo-
phoros and he got some, and got rid of his
rheumatism entirely. There are good
many more, too, that were cuI ed in the
same way and have been cured by this
medicine. I never heard so much talk
about any other medicine as I have heard
about this"
It is worthy of consideration in regard
to the work of Athlophoros that where it
is best known it is most highly priced. The
words which are spoken in its praise come
from people who are most widely known
in the communities where they reside. In
quire among any of the druggists who sell
Athlophoros, and the result of the inquiry
will be the information that Athlopf-oros
is in growing favor and increasing demand
among the people, and that those who have
used it are most earnest in speaking of the
good it has done them.
