THE NAVY YARD IN NEW LONDON.

In this quaint old city of revolutionary
memory and of historic interest one of the
questions was for some time as to whether
the Navy Yard should 20 or stay. The
Navy Yard is there yet, and for the pres
ent seems likely to stay.
But there is another question which has
from time to time occupied the attention
Of some of the New London people 1t IS
a personal one, coming much more nearly
home to them than the one about the Navy
Yard. 1t is: "Shall my rheumatism stay
or goW
There is no denying the fact that under
the old treatment it has often proved as
difficult to drive out rheumatism as to
move navy yard.
One of our correspondents while taking
a tour among the apothecaries of New
London, found that by their patrons
these maladies were no longer regarded as
tough and obstinate as formerly but were
giving way to the power of the new medi-
cine, Athlophoros Several of these apoth-
ecaries spoke of a number of cases in which
neuralgia and rheumatism had been thor
oughly cured by Athlophoros.
Visiting Mr.. j. ID. L. Strickland, the old
established coal dealer and merchant, he
found that Mrs. Strickland had been a suf-
ferer from rheumatism. Said Mr.. Strick-
land: "She had it for several years. Her
joints were painful and swollen. | don't
know much about Athlophoros, except
that she took it and it took her rheumatism
away. 1t is now year ago and she has
had no rheumatism since, except an occa-
siOnal twinge"
The house Of d. G. Stratton was then
visited. Mr.. Stratton, whom everybody in
1 New London knows is a travelling sales
man for a large New York house. He was
away from home, but Mrs. Stratton,
received our correspondent very cordially.
MIR. Stratton has no more rheumatism"
said she. "IIe had it long and painfully.
For several years he had been troubled
with dull and heavy pains and aches,
which the doctors told him were rheuma-
tic, and treated him accordingly. But they
did not succeed in drawing the pains out.
About two years ago these pains took the
form of very severe attack of regular sci
atica. We heard of Athlophoros and tried
it. Much to our establishment Mr.. STRAIT
tons pains began to leave him. The cure
was not complete ut once, but there was
enough relief to show that we were on the
right track. Mr.. Stratton felt SO much en-
couraged that he kept on, receiving benefit
all the time, until lie had taken seven bot
ties. BY this time the pain had left him.
Occasionally since that there has been a
slight return Of the pain, hut only slight
nothing like the old pains which for a
while laid Mr.. Stratton up and prevented
him from attending to business. We re-
gard his cure as complete and we give
credit entirely to Athlophoros. lie is
about as usual and is able to attend to all
his duties, which require a great deal Of
travelling and constant active eXertion.
You may quote us as most thoroughly and
heartily believing in Athlophoros"
From New London, our correspondent
went to Taunton, Mass, and called
one evening at the house of Mr.. John S.
Sampson on Harrison street Mr.. Sampson
said MY rheumatism took princi-
pally the form of sciatica, attacking me
from time to time suddenly and with acute
pain. 1t was chiefly in last August that
my attacks were the most severe. 1t may
be curious feature of such attacks that
mine have been more in the dog days
than in the spring and fall months when
most people have rheumatism. This
Athlophoros medicine finished my rheDl-
matism. had tried other medicines and
they failed to cure me. tried Athlopho-
ros and it knocked the rheumatism ont.
That is not very long story, but it is the
long and short of it."
"IIavc you had returns of the rheuma-
, tism or the scatic pain since your curc?' -
81 have not, except in very slight
degree; not enough to be any great iucon-
venience, But keep Il bottle of Atho-
phoros in the house and know what.to
do in case should have any return. !
heartily commend Athlophoros."
