1t is to this last class that Mr.. NJ. P.
Schrock, Of h72 West Lake street, Chicago,
belongs. Mr.. Schrock is a wcll-known
dry goods merchant, and counts himself
fortunate in having a 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, and for
that invaluable remedy he now cherishes
an almost equal regard. The story is
well told by Mr.. Schroct in his own
words:
During the Spring Of 1854 I wa

My doctor finally decided that it would

How much Athlophoros lid You use
