Those who have travelled through the
hill country of New England must often
have been struck BY the sight of . white
church standing almost alone upon
summit of the great ridge. Once it wac
the meeting place Of some fourishing viii
lage, but when the railroads came, max
ing their way through the rough forbid
ding country by following the water
courses closely the villagers descended
into the valleys, built up towns along the
great highways of travel and left the old
church to mourn over its lost glories and
to struggle along weakly until it too had
to succumb to the new order of things.
The clergy who built up these pillars Of
orthodoxy were strong and earnest men,
and those who have succeeded them are
not less 80. Their lives are marked by
self-sacrifice and severe work. Their la
bors are carried On under many difficult
ties and hardships, and it is not surpris-
ing that many suffer from rheumatism
and neuralgia. That many of them have
found cure, however, for these diseases
may be seen from these letters. Rev.
A. s. Cooper, of WilIiston, Vt, says:
"Twelve hours use Of AthIophoros
greatly removed the pain from my sys-
TEN and rendered the muscles so supple
that could get up and down with ease,
which | have not done for long time.
] called yesterday on gentleman who
got bottle from me and who / expec-
ted would send for more through me,
but 1 found he had got the start of me
and ordered for himself, having been
much benefited by it."
Henry L. Hall, editor of Wiltimantic
(Ct.) Journal, who is well and favorably
known for miles around, says:
'Three doses Of Athlophoros relieved
me from very acnte attack Of in6amma-
tory rheumatism in nine hours. | con-
slider it an invaluable remedy in rheu-
matte affections, and esteem it pleasure
to recommend Athlophoros."
Mr.. J. b. Webster who is the carpenter
for the Willimantic Linen Co., of Will
mantle, Conn.,, and is well-known and
much respected in that neighborhood, says:
For three months / suffered with

Ouo Ichucuico iOT tuht COiupid uIltii tOoN
Athlophoros, which entirely cured me-"
Rev. s. Donaldson, Of Lyndon, VT,
writes:
"The bottle of Athlophoros helped my
wife greatly. She had up to the time Of
taking it been a great sufferer from neu-
ralgia and rheumatic difficulties, making
it almost impossible for her to walk with
any ease. These difficulties have been
about her more or less for fourteen years.
Since taking the medicine she has been
comparatively free from pain and is able
to walk better than before for several
years"
Rev. Charles f. Harris formerly of
New Haven, now of Brooklyn, says:
"Athlophoros acted like charm, and |
have been quite free from any attack of
from that time until the pres
ent. / can, therefore, with all sincerity
testify to the valuable quality of Athlo-
phoros as a rheumatic cure"
