The old residents who first settled Wis.
ccnsin and have watched il grow from n
thinly populated territory into one OF the
most prosperous and progressive States OF
the Union are fast passing away. Every
few days are printed accounts Of the diath
OF some village patriarch. whose tales OF
fights With the Indians and OF hardships
endured and oversone in earlier days have
seemed TO the rising ssneration like chap
tiers in ancient history. To those who stil
remain al honor due. They viii not
be with Us long, but while they yet tarry
their experience and advice should be
needed. Samuel Barstow, Of Lancaster,
Wis, Is one OF those old residents and is
web known, not only in the State, but be.
yond its borders as well. In %recounting
some OF his experiences recently he said:
Il have suffered more or less from rheu-
matism and general debility for a number
OF years. For the last wear the trouble
has constantly increased and for q month
| could not dress myself or get up from my
chat without help. From my head to my
feet every cord and muscle was stiff and
sore. During this time | used various RENE
dies, but all to no purpose, and continued
TO get worse. My attention was called to
Athlophoros. | procured a bottle and on
the 22d OF January, 1854. began to use il.
! took five doses and then slept easily IN
I'll eight O'Clock in the morning. then
got up n dressed myself and walked u
without a cane. was = tonished at the
result and could hardly realize that the
medicine had produced u an effect. |

seventy-two years old-nnd | don't sup
pose that il will make me n young man,
but it will help the lamp Of life TO burn
down calmly"
Mrs. X. +. Bowers, OF Racine, Wis, il

residents, she having lived there thirty-sev.
en- years. Her present address is 900
State Street. She has this to say:
Il have been troubled with rheumatism
for the last three years. | did not suffer as
much pain as some do with the same com.
plant, my difficulty being principally stiff
ness of the joints. The trouble was most
ly in my knee joints, and it was with much
difficulty that ! could pend them, especially
in going up and down stairs. During the
time | was troubled in this way ! tried
many medicines without any good effects.
Athlophoros came to my notice, and being
anxious TO get some relief | thought |
would try il. After using it for a short
time | was able to bend my knees easily
and could e up or down stairs"
Mrs. T. Il. Neff, Of Calamine, Wis, who
has herself been benefited by taking Athlo.
phoros for her rheumatism, tells an inter
esting story Of the improvement wrought
