gentle hunlur anii tender rathos, is re-

her unique limb, which brought with it
80 many misioGtnnes. IN this prosaic
age good strong leg Of flesh, bone and
muscle, is much TO be preferred whether
its possessor be a professional pedestrian,
ora solid upa3suming citizen,
1t is to this last class that Mr.. NJ. P,
Schrock, of G72 West Lake stFeet, Chicago,
belongs. Mr.. SchrocI1 is q well-known
dry goods merchant, and counts himself
fortunate in having 4 pair OF good strong
legs. For one of his legs he has
= peculiar regard, as he came near
losing it through rheumatism. Athio-
phoros saved it for him however, ard for
that invaluable remedy he row ehcriahes
an almost equal regard. The story is
well told by Mr.. Schrock i'll his own
words:
During the Spring of 1884 I was
stricken with rheumatism in its very
worst form, and was confined to my bod
entirely helpless for about four week.
My leg panied me so intensely that !
could not let it rest on the bed without
some support. So l had a pulley al
tached from the ceiling and 10 that q
sling was fastened. | could rest my le1
in this, changing the height, and in that
manner ! managed to obtain some little
relief During the four weeks | lay in
bed tried many remedies without avail
Finally | made a change and employed
physicians. They tried their very hes;
to give me relief, but could not Instead
of getting better, was growing worse.
My doctor finally decided that it would
be necessary to make an incision in my
thigh, and if there was not n marked I'M
provement in my condition from that
operation that amputation of my leg
would be required. This, as you may
we'll imagine, discouraged and disheart-
ened me beyond measure. About this
time my wife noticed in Richmond
indy paper, for which we subscribe,
the name of personal friend who had
been cured by the use of Athlophoros.
She called my attention to it, and | said
at once, Get {. bottle and try it, She
bought bottle, the doctor was discharg-
ed and We began using it Immediately.
| experienced great relief in the first
few doses, In two days after ] began
with the medicine, was in my store
attending to my business, and L have not
been troubled with rheumatism since"
"Iow much Athlophoros did You use
for this remarkable cure, Mr.. Schrocs?'
about one and a thirl bottles. The
remaining two-thirds Of bottle il still
unused at my house"
"Don't you think 1t was a very quick
cure for SO bad a case2' was asked.
