The Last Effort the Best.

"This is a world OF effort, we know,
Fanny, and we must never yield when so
much depends upon u.s." Mrs. Chick said to
Mrs. Dombey as the latter lay dying soon
after little Paul had been ushered into the
world. But Mrs. Dombey could not make
an effort and 'drifted out upon the dark
and unknown sea that rolls round all the
world" Mrs. Chick was not In agreeable
character and no words OF hers could rouse
the gentle mothers spirit.
"We will make one more effort" said
Mrs. o. Thornton, of Stuart, Ia, to her
husband when he was utterly discouraged
by sickness. Mr.. Thornton made the effort,
and why it was necessary for him to make
it he tells as follows:
81 had been subject to the rheumatism
for several years, it often combining me to
the house for two or three months at a
time. During my last attack l was entirely
helpless and could not do so much as to
feed myself. 1 had been in this condition
for six weeks and was getting very much
discouraged. as nothing 1 had already lone
had even given me relief. My wife noticed
the advertisement of Athlophoros about
the first time it appeared in our papers.
She said to me:
"'Well, here is another remedy for rheu-
matism. We will make one more effort
81 took my first dose about 6 O'Clock
and almost directly went to sleep. Not
having had any sleep for three or our
slept soundly until 9 o'clock, when my
wife awoke me to take another dose. 1 had
been for several weeks lying on a lounge.
When l awoke to take my second dose 1
found that 1 could move without pain. 1
said to my wife:
az guess l will get up and go to bed, and
I did, getting a good sound sleep. The
next day l was up and could walk around.
1 continued with the medicine init l had
used three bottles. In five days after
1 had taken my first dose OF ~Athlophoros I
went to work and l have never lost a days
work from rheumatism since. That was
over a year ago."
"You probably spent considerable money
before that in doctoring yourself with diff
ferent kinds of medicines, Mr.. Thornton?''

me much suffering and money for medicine,
as well as the time l lost in not being able
to work"
Don't you think you ran a risk in going
to work so soon after such a long sickness?"
81 did, no doubt, but l felt assured that
l now had a remedy that would soon knock
the rheumatism out of me if l had it again.
l felt anxious to go to work after being kept
from it SO long. Athlophoros has lone for
me what nothing else could do, and 1 take
pleasure in recommending it to others. It
has proved itself in my case to be all that
it is claimed to be-"
Mr.. Thornton is employedin the Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific Railway shops at
Stuart, and is well known as a hard work
ing and industrious citizen. He takes great
pleasure in telling the story Of his cure and
often says that hat "one more effort" was
the best he ever made, and that he ives
life probably to Athlophoros.
