WHEN DOES OLD AGE BEeIsi

Il is said, the amount of combustion which
keeps the furnace Of the human body in
blast commences to decrease and diminishes
until three score years and ten, more or
less, when the fires are drawn and the
Pickering fame dies out That is the
physiological way of looking at it. But
some men are old before they are out of
their teens, while others apparently never
grow old, though they live TO be centen-
arians. The poets way of looking at il is
the best
"Call him not old whose visionary brain
Holds DER the past its undivided reign.
For him in vain the envious seasons roll
Who bears eternal summer in his soul"
This at least seems 10 be the way in
which David Littell, of Sumner, Ia, looks
at life, for though now in his eightieth
year he has taken a new lease on Lie
and is apparently determined to hold on
TO it. Athlophoros did it for him and he
acknowledges his debt 10 it in terms of
enthusiasm. Mr.. Littell tells his own story:
i was past seventy-seven and had been
afflicted with rheumatism three years and
eight months. | had lost one-third of my
weight and could not walk, but shuiiled
me, my nerves were all shattered, and there
was no strength in my hands, wrists, knees
or feet. | could not sit down or get up out
of chair without help, and oh ! such pain,
worse at night than in the day. There was
neither sleep nor rest, and the outlook was
painful in the extreme.
But thanks be to God and Brother
Inskip for sending me paper containing
notice of the cures made by Athlophoros
and thanks be to you for sending me
bottle Ii appears to me the hand of God
Is in it all the way, and if you did not hear
me shout why then did not shout loud
enough, that is all. The medicine arrived
one Saturday night after | had gone to bed.
In the morning my son prepared me dose
of two teaspoonflls in milk. took it and
felt it at once all over. After that / took
but one teaspooninl at time until ! had
finished the bottle How did it act ? Why,
like a charm On Monday morning | rose.
dressed, and walked out into the kitchen
without orutches or cane and wished them
all happy New Year.
My pain is all gone and | rest well.
My son, seeing such great change in me,
wrote for ten bottles in order, as he says,
to make permanent cure oft. 1t is all
moro like a dream than reality. | have
written to four of my friends who are
afflicted with rheumatism about the great
medicine and ! shall write TO others, and in
this way try ts pay the debt of gratitude.
"Some fourteen months ago." says A.
Hayward, of Burlington, Ia, ~ was at
lacked with inaammatory rheumatism.
tried dozen different kinds of medicine
said to cure rheumatism, but to no pur-
pose. Finally, | procured bottle of
AthlophoroS. After using the bottle it
did nae SO much good that / bought
another, but did not have to use more than
third Of the second bottle before | was
entirely cured. From that time up to the
present | have never had anything like
rheumatic pains, and | thang Athlophoros
for the eure"
Thomas MeCue, Bushs block, Dubuque,
la, whose wife was cured by Athlephoros
If a terrible case Of rheumatism, declares
IL was truly a miracle in my wife's case"
