A POPULAR Ex-MAYoR.

Ex-Mayor Newton, of Des Moines, Ia, is
deservedly popular in the city over whose
destines he presided by reason of the many
good deeds and the unostentatious acts of
charity which he is constantly doing. Sue
cessful as politician, he has also recently
been playing the part of good Samaritan
with success equal to his triumphs in
politics. The fainting traveller by the
wayside, whom he has raised up and re-
freshed by good counsel in the last in
stance, is Mr. George A. Crandale, the man
ager for Oberne, Hosick & Co., Second and
Walnut streets. Mr.. Crandale, who nat
urally feels under many obligations to the
Ex-Mayor tells as follows how he came
into such wretched plight as to need
help and how it was cheerfully given.
81 have never had an ache or pain of
rheumatism" he said, "since | used Athlo-
phoros and the medicine cost me only $3.
If any one had guaranteed to cure me
would willingly have paid him $50, yes
500. My rheumatism was intammatory,
mostly in my ankles, but little in the
wrist. | could manage to hobble around
by the use of canes, but felt as if were
walking on the bare bones, or in other
words as if my feet were off and | was
walking on the stumps. The pain was
terrible to bear, yet | managed to be about
and to attend to my business.
Gone day, during the time I was suffer-
ing so much, | hobbled to the Court House
to look after some matter. AS [ was
struggling to get up the steps met ex-
Mayor Newton, who asked me what the
trouble was | told him that it was rheu-
matism, whereupon he advised me to get
bottle of Athlophoros. | did net get it
then, as l had no faith in patent medicines
and did not want to take any. A short
time after this | wrote to an old friend,
Charles p. Griffin, of Stuart, to inquire
what had cured him. | knew that he had
of the worst kind. His answer was: Get
Athlophoros. That is what cured me- L
then got some, but really had no faith in
its curing me. | began to get relief from
it in twenty-four hours. [ continued talk
ing it until had used three dollars worth,
when my rheumatism, both the pain and
the swelling, was gone, and l have not had
any return since. That is now over year
ago."
Ex-Mayor Newton based his recommen-
dation of Athlophoros to Mr. Crandale
upon the very remarkable cure it had
effected in the case of his wife. That lady
thus tells all about it:
II have been comparatively free from
rheumatism for the past year and a half.
Previous to that had been a great suf-
ferer for years and had resorted to many
remedies, but nothing would DO what Ath-
| lophoros did for me. | have had a few
twinges of late, but attribute that to my
self and not to the medicine, as I have not
been so careful as 1 should have been.
Athlophoros took the stiffness out of the
joints Of my fingers and gave me the use
of my hands, in which l had SO long had
trouble I have recommended it in many
cases and in every instance that I know
of the results have been very satisfactory.
I do not hesitate in the least in recon-
mending it most heartily to every rheu-
matte sufferer"
