TRIsTRAM sHAEDY's FATHER.

Tristram Shandy, in 1.-THE humorous open
ing chapters of the book which bears his
name and purports 10 record his life and
opinions, tells US that his father was at one
time afflicted with sciatica, and that thi;
atHlcGon was indirectly the cause ofevents
which had n most baleful and uuhapp,
effect upon his own future life. Littlc
matters like these often do affect the caret--
not only of the sufferer himself, but o,
those By whom he is surrounded. and per-
haps Trisuam's subsequent misfortuues,
even more than he knew, might all be
traced TO that sciatica from which his
father, "a Turkey merchant--one of the
most regular men in everything he did,
whether II was matter of business or mat
ter Of amusements, that ever lived "-suf-
tered all December, January and Febru-
ary. Sciatica and other diseases must be
held responsible for a good deal that goes
wrong in the present day also, and even an
attack of indigestion in so august person.

An attack of sciatica, however, from
which Mr.. I. L. Chatheld, contractor
and builder of Milwaukee, Wis, has re-
Gently suffered, painful as it was, has been
attended with at least one good result, for
which Mr.. Chatiield is thankful and that
is il has shown him that there is a cure for
the disease Mr., Chatiield lives at No. 800
Eleventh avenue, and is well known in
Milwaukee. To one who called upon him
in reference to his case he told this story:

had the sciatiCa for many years and tried
many kinds Of medicine without any re-
iof. OF course, there would be times when
( would suffer worse than at others, es-
necially in damp and stormy weather.

ably the worst | ever had.
'' | vas so badly crippled that l could
not walk and | could not get any sleep,
except when the doctor would inject NOR
phine. Then would be able to doze
little while. I read about Athlophoros in
the papers and decided to try 1t in my
case. After using about two-thirds of
bottle the pain went away as if by some
magic power and in a few days | was en-
tirely well and went about my work"
Did you have any returns Of the disease
during the severe winter?"
No; nothing to speak Of l felt little
twinge in my right leg, but attribute that
to my leaving off the medicine so soon,
got well so quickly that quit taking the
medicine and did not really give it a fair
chance to clear the disease entirely out Of
my system. If any sufferer from rheuma-
tism is made sick by the Athlophoros in
taking it according TO the directions
would advise him to take smaller doses,
but to stick to the medicine, as it will
surely cure him as it did me-"
E. L. Dimock, of the firm Of Dimock
q Hayner, insurance agents, East Mil
waukee street, GAINESVILLE, Wis, who so
seriously afflicted with rheumatism in his
hips and legs that he could not move with
out great trouble and intense pain, gives
this as hisexperience with Athlophoros:
II have now used one bottle Of Athlo-
phoros with the most satisfactory results,
being almost entirely free from pain"
