THE FALL RIVER STRIKES.

One of the busiest of all the manufactur- ing cities of New England is Fall River, famous for it's many mills, its enterprising manufacturers, and its hosts of steady-go- ing operatives. Once in a while a strike takes place at Fall River which brings the place into more than usual prominence. But these strikes are less and less frequent, and the relations between capital and la bor are now so we'll understood that strikes are regarded as improbable waste of time.
 One of our editorial writers went to Fall River few days ago, not to see the mills, nor to study as to strikes and strikers, but to learn about the case of Mrs. Lawton, who for many years was a sufferer from rheumatism. Mrs. Lawton is a lady well known in Fall River, and living at No. AZ Third Street. Calling on her, our friend found her at home and very cheerfully dis posed to talk about her experience in get ting rid of her rheumatic troubles.
 Said Mrs. Lawton: {" I had rheumatism for fifteen years, and it was of the most painful kind, too. The pain was mostly in my feet, which were sometimes badly swelled. My joints were exceedingly pain night. Sometimes in the day time would be taken with sudden pains so that could not stand. Just before change of weath- CT my sufferings would sometimes be ln- tense. We'll, of course, tried everything that gave me any hope of recovery from this disease. From time to time had sev- eral doctors sometimes of one school and sometimes ofanother. Sometimes I thought I experienced relief with the evarious things they gave me, but the relief would be only partial and would last only a short time. rheumatism is, but whatever it is, it was in me, and all the medicines took for fifteen years failed to get it out"
 '"Well, madam, how did you get rid of it at last? You seem to be entirely free from it now"
 "Free from iti Yes, guess am. No more rheumatism for me since took Attn lophoros, this new medicine that there is so much talk about. In the fall of 'S4 I saw this Athlophoros advertised in paper l was reading, and I heard some of my friends talking about it. At that time I didn't believe that there was anything that could cure rheumatism, for the doctors had so entirely failed to cure mine.
 "But thought would try bottle of this new medicine just to see what it would do. I sent for bottle. There was none to be had in town at that time, and so I got one of our druggists to send for it for me. I an told the druggists all keep it now, though, for it has done so much good that great many people are asking for it.. As soon as I had taken the medicine felt queer buzzing in my head. It twas not un- pleasant exactly, but it made me wonder what was coming next. We'll, what came next? Why, just what I wanted-that was relief from my pain. The first night after had taken the medicine slept as I had not slept for years. do not say that my pain all went away at once. But with in few days it all went away, and the best of it is that it has not come back again. 1 speak very gratefully of the Athlophoros, for it did a great deal more for me than could have expected"
 And how about your friends, Mrs. Law ton Were some of them benefited by Athlophoros
 "Yes. There is lady who lives on Main street who had rheumatism severely in her arms. The doctors tried in vain to do her good, and Athlophoros cured her. A lady who lives in the next house re- ceived a great deal of good from it. Then my daughter-she has had infammatory rheumatism lately, and she has begun to take Athlophoros. It has done her much good, although she is not yet entirely cured. A gentleman who was here from Westport got bottle for his wife. At first she was afraid of it, but she took it, and found that it did her great deal of good. And there are others around here, too, who say it is the best medicine they ever knew"
