THE HAPPINESS OF E1Ys1um.

Elysium was the name given by the an
Gent Greeks to the resting place of the
righteous dead, where they should enioy
eternal peace and happiness. Nonebuttbe
pure IN heart, the truthful and the generous
could tread the asphodel meadows Of the
Elysian fields and it was a land of everlost-
ing delight. When, therefore, Mrs. Kate
Sherman, OF streator, H., said recently
that she had been in Elysium, though Of
course she spoke figurativek, it argued
tina some great good fortune and joy had
come to her. And such, indeed. was the
truth. Mrs. Sherman tells how r. WIS IN
this way:
II have suffered from infammatorv
rheumatism for more than thirty yea rs.
Heretofore the pain would succumb to the
application of hot wet flannel, but at NV
last attack circumstances had conspired to
aggravate the disease, and / became helm.
less. My hands and feet were swollen n
mously, and I suffered almost mortal
agony. My physician brought me a bottle
OF Athlophoros. After taking the third
dose l was in Elysium, and was free from
pain. By the time I had taken a bottle
and q half felt so wonderfully improved
That l discontinued the medicine. 1 have
an ungovernable dislike to all medicine.
but l will say that Athlophoros probably
saved my life, as l was running down rap
idly, and could not have endured the pain
much longer. 1t afforded me the only re.
lief I ever experienced except fro, hot wa.
ter, and that had failed me-"
The Rev SamYal porfor ~ C,o4o III
says OF the effect of Athlophoros O his
wife:
Mrs. Porter wa very much benefited bv
Che first bottle. Before she commenced
taking it she could not walk, she was so
badly afflicted with rheumatism, but she
was soon able to walk. She sleeps well,
Mr.. John Hews, our neighbor, was very
badly Off with the rheumatism last winter,
and was not able to work or even to get
out of his room. One bottle of Athlopho.
o cured him, but he has to keep it by him
to take when he feels his old difficulties"
Another clergyman, the Rev. 6. Hartley,
OF Huntlcy, ILL.,, gives this as his experience
with the remedy:
For six months I suffered severely from
an attack OF rheumatism. A friend sent
me q notice of several reliable cures eff.
fected by Athlophoros. l procured the

pletely cured me, and l have not had the
least Indication OF @ return of the painful
disease. Ihave recommended it to others
and results similar to those inmy case
have followed. l regard Athlophoros as
invaluable"
A. NJ. Blakney, who lives at the corner of
Union and Green streets. Decatur, Ill.,, only
confirms the general testimony to the value
OF A%thlophoros when he says:
During the past winter I was stricken
with a very severe attack OF rheumatism-
a disease with which ! had been afflicted for
several years-and was rendered almost
helpless, and confined to my bed. / tried
various medicines, and was prescribed for
by physicians with no avail. Finally l was
induced by my druggist to try Athlopho-

that words could not tell my surprise. I
do not hesitate in recommending it to any
one suffering with that most painful com.
