A SURPRISING CHANGE.

SURPRISING CHANGEs
With its broad streets and majestic
avenues adorned with stately buildings,
Detroit is one of the most magnificent cities
on this continent Its new system Of
electric lighting throws into obscurity all
the old methods, and leaves ordinary street
lamps where dingy tallow dips used to be.
The new lights are on light lattice work
towers, 1875 to $50 feet high, shedding
radiance which is like intensified moon
light. The effect of this when the city is
covered with its white robe of snow, is
strangely beautiful.
A gentleman recently spent day or two
in Detroit, pushing his researches to some
extent in the direction Of finding out as TO
the new method of curing rheumatism by
means Of Athlophoros the remedy which in
the last year or two has attained such favor
as victor over this old enemy of the
human race. Calling on Mr.. Il. &. Watson,
the well-known superintendent of the
American District Telegraph Company. he
found that gentleman cheerfully ready to
say all the pleasant things he could about
Athlophoros.
"My wife" said Mr.. Watson, twas suf-
fering terribly from rheumatism her pains
were both in joints and muscles So ex-
cruciating were her agonies when she
moved, that sometimes on assuming one
position in the morning she would remain
in that position all day rather than endure
the torment of being moved. procured a
bottle of AthlophoroS, and the effect on my
wife was as surprising as it was gratifying.
We had no idea that any medicine could SO
speedily remove such an obstinate disease.
She was soon cured, and the cure was com.
plete. Since that she has had no return of
the disorder. We speak freely among our
friends OF the good work of AthlOphoros,
and have no hesitation in saying how highly
we esteem it."
Visiting nearly all the leading drug
stores in the city, it was found that all who
had kept Athlophoros had received from
their customers marked commentator of
its efficacy. One lady had taken six bottles
of it with the result of complete cure.
At Frizele's, on Michigan Avenue, one of
the clerks had taken it with excellent effect.
This young man, Mr.. Cohen, had suffered
greatly with rheumatism. Though sur
rounded by medicines of every description,
they did not reach his case. Mr.. Cohen
tried Athlophoros, and found that it did for
him what nothing else had been able to do.
/ From Detroit to Chicago is but days
ride, and.in the latter city Athlophoros has
also accomplished some wonderful results.
In Chicago, at sos West Twelfth street,
lives Mr.. William W. Summers, of the
well-known firm of Summers, Morrison d
! On commission mnrpha 1Td Spnfb
( Water street Mr.. and Mrs. Summers gave
substantially the following facts:
"When Robbie was taken sick some
weeks ago we thought at first that it was
only an ordinary cold, but it proved TO be
something much more severe. The pains
were evidently those of rheumatism. We
wrapped the boy in cotton and gave him a
number of the remedies such as are gem
orally given. His agony was dreadful.
We had to hold him in the bed, his agony
was so great. We had two physicians, who
did not succeed in making him any better.
The poor child'S torture was so intense that
he asked for pistol, so that lie might put
himself out of the way and thus end his
sutferings. When he was at his worst we
thought of Katie Gill, who was well known
to us, and the medicine that had cured her.
We sent to Mr.. ellis to know the name of
The medicine and where to get it. They
happened to have some left in a bottle
AthlOpholos the name is-and they kindly
sent it to us. 1t is surely a very strange
and powerful medicine, for it stopped the
boys pain very soon and very etfectually.
He took but little of it, for there was
only enough for about three doses in the
bottle Mr. Gill sent us. This was only a
few weeks ago. The boy has had no return
of rheumatism. You see him now as hearty
and as happy as any other boy"
If you can not get ATHLoPHOROs of your
! druggist, we will send it express paid, on re-
Ge:pt OF regular prlce-one dollar per bottle.
but if he hasn't it, do not be persuaded to
| try something else, but order at once from
us, as directed. ATHLoPHoROS Co., IL Wall
