FEARTLEss CRUELTY

IL is 10 delude a poor sufferer into the
belief that some worthless liniment will
cure rheumatism and neuralgia. Honesty
is the best policy in the manufacture OF
proprietary articles as in all other matters,
and the fact that the proprietors OF Athlo-
phoros have never claimed for it even all
its merit would warrant has not a little to
do with its wonderful popularity, and the
thousands Of grateful testimonials received
by them show that their policy has been
wise as well AS right.
Experience has amply demonstrated
that mere outward applications are worth
less. The disease has its seat in the blood,
and any remedy to be successful must deal
with the obstructive acid which poisons
and inhames it.
Athlophoros acts on the blood muscles
and joints directly. 1t takes the poison
ont of the blood and carries it ont of the
.ystem; it invigorates the action of the
,,,1scles and limbers the stiffness OF the
ats. II reaches the liver and kidneys,
II ansing them from irritating substances,
nd, if followed up after the rheumatic
conditions cease, it will restore these organs
to regularity and health.

the benefit Of the Sabine sufferers,
that will come off soon in the Fire

wings over their heads, and now
that the cry of distress is heard
from another afflicted people. they
