Ex-Mayor Newton, of Des Moines,
Ia, is deservedly popular in the city
over whose destinies he presided, by
reason of the many good deeds and the
transformations acts of charity which he
is constantly doing. Successful as a
politician, nc has also recently been
playing the part Of a good Samaritan
with a success equal 10 his triumphs in
politics. The fainting traveller by the
waysidc, whom he has raised up and re-
freshcd by good counsel in the last in
stance, is Mr. George A. Crandale,
the manager for 0berne, Hosick & Co.,
Second and Walnut streets Mr..
Crandale, who naturally feels under
many obligations to the Ex-Mayor
tells as follows how he came into such
a wretched plight as to need help and
how it was cheerfully given.
Il have never had an ache or pain of
rheumatism, he said, ''since / used
Athlophoros and the medicine cost me
only IS. If any one had guaranteed
to cure me | would willingly have paid
him $50, yes 800. My rheumatism
was lhAdlAlAlidbOl1y Apoll1 III my
ankles, but a little in the wrist. ]
could manage to hobble around by the
use of canes, but felt as if were walk
ing on the bare bones, or in other
words as if my feet were off and l was
walking on the stumps. The pain was
terrible to bear, yet / managed to be
about and attend to my business.
zone day, during the time l was suf-
fering so much, hobbled to the Court
House to look after some matter. AS /
was struggling to get up the steps
met eX-Mayor Newton, who asked me
what the trouble was. l told him that
it was rheumatism, whereupon he ad
vIsed me to get a bottle of Athlophoros.
l did not get it then, as / had no
faith in patent medicines and did not
want to take any. A short time
after this | wrote to an old friend,
Charles +, Griffin, OF Stuart, to inquire
what had cured him. / knew that he
had been confined to his bed with
rheumatism of the worst kind. His
answer was: Get Athlophoros. That
is what cured me- | then got some,
but really had no faith in its curing
me. l began to get relief from it in
twenty-four hours. continued taking
it until l had used three dollars worth,
when my rheumatism, both the pain
and the swelling, was gone, and l have
not had any return since. That is now
over year ago"
Ex-Mayor Newton based his recon-
mendation of Athlophoros to MIR. Gram
dale upon the very remarkable cure it
had effected in the case of his wife.
That lady thus tells all about it:
Il have been comparatively free from
rheumatism for the past year and
half. Previous to that | had been a
great sufferer for years and had re-
sorted to many remedies, but nothing
woHld do what Athlophoros did for
me. | have had few twlnges of
late, but | attribute that to myself
and not to the medicine, as 1 have
not been so careful as ] should have
been. AthlophorOs took the stiffness
out of the joints of my fingers and gave
me the use of my hands, in which
had so long had trouble. | have
recommended it in many cases and in
every instance that | know of the re-
suits have been very satisfactory. | do
not hesitate in the least in recommends
ing it most heartily to every rheumatic
sufferer.
