a Popular Ex-MayOr,

Ex-Mayor Newton, of Des Moines,
Ia, is deservedly popular in the city
ovese destinies he presided, by reason
Of the many good deeds and the unos-
tentatious acts Of charity which he Is
doing. Successful as a politician, he
has also recently been playing the part
of q good Samaritan with a success
equal to his triumphs in politics. The
fainting traveller 10y the wayside, whom
he has raised up and refreshed by good
counsel in the last instance. is Mr..
George A. Crandale, the manager for
Oberne, Hosick Il Co., Second and Wal
nut streets. Mr.. Crandale, who natur-
ally feels under many obligations to
the ex. mayor tells AS follows how he
came into such a wretched plight as
to need help and how it was cheerfully
given:
Il have had an ache or pain OF
rheumatism" said he, "since | used
Athlophoros, and the medicine only
cost me 93. If any one had guaranteed
to cure me ! would willingly have paid
him 500, yes 800. My rheumatism
was intlammatory, mostly III my ankles,
but a little in the wrist. | could man
age to hObble around by the use of
canes, but felt as il | 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
attene TO my business.
Zone day, during the time | was suf.
feriDg 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 rheumatism, Whereupon he ad-
vised me TO get "A bottle Of Athlophoros.
| did not get it then, as | had no faith
IN patent mealcines and did not want
to take any. A short time after that
| wrote to IN old friend, Charles Il.
Griffin, Of Stuyrt, to inquire what had
cured him. | knew that he had been
confined to his bed with rheumatism
of the worst kind. His answer was:
Get Athlophoros. That is what cured
me- | then got some, but really had
no faith its curing IN | began TO get
relief from it in twenty-four hours. /
continued taking it until | had used
three dollars worth, when my rheuma-
tism, both the pain and the swelling,
was gone, and l have not had any re-
turn since That is now over a year
ago"
Ex-Mayor Newton based his recon-
mendation of A%thlophoros to Mr.. Gran
dale unpon the very remarkable cure it
bad effected in the case Of his wife.
That lady thus tells about it:
Il have been comparatively free
from rheumatism for the past year and
a half. Previous TO that ! had been q
great sufferer for years and had re-
sorted to many remedies, but nothing
would do what A~tnlophoros did for
me. / have had a few twinges of late,
but attribute that to myself and not
to the medicine, as | have not been so
careful as ! should have been. Athlo-
phoros took took the stiffness out Of
the joints of my fingers and gave me
the use of my hands, in which | had SO
long had trouble. | have recommended
it in.many cases and in every instance
that I know of the results have been
very satisfactory. | do not hesitate in
the least IN recommending it most
heartily to every rheumatic sufferer. +"
