A Popular EX-May0f.

Ex-Mayor Newton, of Des Moines, Ia,
is deservedly popular in the city over
whose destines he presided, by reason
of the many good deeds and the unos-
tentatious acts of charity which he is
constantly doing. Successful as a poll
tician. he has also recently been play
ing the part of good Samaritan with
success equal to his triumphs in poll
tics. The fainting traveller by the way
side. whom he has raised up and re-
freshed by good council in the last in
stance. is Mr.. George A. Crandale, the
manager for Oberne. Hosick & Co.,
Second and Walnut streets. Mr.. Gran
dale, who naturally feels under many
obligations to the Ex-Mayor tells as
follows how he came into such wretch
ed plight as to need help and how it
was cheerfully given.
II have never had an ache or pain of
rheumatism, he said, 'since l used
Athlophoros and the medicine cost me
only So. II any one had guaranteed to
cure me would willingly have paid
him $50, yes 500. My rheumatism
was inhammatory, mostly in my ankles,
but q little in the wrist. could man.
age to hobble around by the use of
cancs, but felt as if were walking on
the bare bones, or in other words as if
my feet were off and was walking on
the stumps. The pain was terrible to
bear, yet managed to be about and
to attend tn nv hlSinncS
Zone day, during the time was
suffering so much, I hobbled to the
Court House to look after some mat
ter. As was struggling to get up the
steps l met ex-Mayor Newton, who
asked me what the trouble was. told
him that it was rheumatism, where
upon he advised me to get bottle of
Athlorhoros. did not get it then, as
had no faith in patent medicines and
did not want to take any. A short
time after this wrote to an old friend,
Charles P. Griffin, Of Stuart, to inquire
what had cured him. knew that he
had been confined to his bed with
rheumatism of the worst kind. His
answer was: Get Athlophoros. That
is what cured me- then got some,
but really had no faith in its curing
me. began to get relief from it in
tWenty-four hours. l continued taking
it until had used three dollars worth,
when my rheumatism, both the pain
and the swelling, was gone, and 1 have
not had any return since. That is now
over q year ago.
Ex-Mayor Newton based his recon-
mendation of Athlophoros to MIR. Gran
dale upon the very remarkable cure it
had effected in the case of his wife.
That lady thus tells all about it:
Il have been comparatively free from
rheumatism for the past year and q
half. Previous to that [ had been a
great sufferer for years and had re-
sorted to many remedies, but nothing
would do what Athlophoros did for me.
have had a few twinges of late, but I
attribute that to myself and not to the
medicine, as have not been so care
full as should have been. Athlophoros
took the stiffness out of the joints of my
fingers and gave me the use of my
hands, in which l had so long had
| trouble. | have recommended it in
many cases and in every instance that
l know of the results have been very sat-
isfactory do not hesitate in the least
in recommending it most heartily to
every rheumatic Sufferer
