forgot all about it."
And SO it is with many people whosufer
withthe most aggravating pains. They hob
bic around as best they can and get very
little or no sympathy on account of their
healthful look, and from the fact that it is
only rheumatism and they always have it.
What pains are more severe than those from
rheumatism? Said w S. Hopkins, living
at No. l79 c Avenue, Cedar Rapids, Iowa:
my wife and daughter were both stricken
with infammatory rheumatism at the
same time. The lower limbs were much
swollen. The pain seemed almost beyond
endurance. Sleep was out of the question.
They suffered so much that to move or
even touch the sheet on the bed would
cause the most violent pain. They were
confined to the bed four weeks. During
that time and previously, bought many
kinds Of medicines. Then employed a
physician, but nothing gave relief until
bought some Athlophoros, which had
heard of, and / am glad to say in a very
short time the swelling was reduced, the
pain gone and they were entirely well''
'How muchdid theyt take, Mr.. Hopkins??"
| think it was three bottles in all.o
Have either of them had any return of
the rheumatism? ?"
Not in the least"
1t was rather strange coincidence
both having an attack at the same time 2"
" es, it was, but such was the case,
strange as it may seem. They were both
helpless, but are now well, and all from
the use of Athlophoros It is an ex-
cellent medicine, and we'll worth the trial
by any sufferer from rheumatism"

the work of Christ was not completed unit
he had arisen from that new, virgin toni
of Joseph, of Arimathea, and aScended int

sion was the cOnsummate flower that sprung
from Calvary, molstened by the precious
blood of the lamb that was slain :oy the re-
demption of mankind.
On such day as this it Is well TO c0nsid-
er what the religion which Christ brought
into the world has accomplished in and fol-
it. What has Christianity done for the hui
man race, in these two thousand Years?
What has it done for individuals? What
has it done for the masses? What has ii
done ior civilization? What sort of fruit
has the tree borne good or bad? Has Chris
tianity retarded OF promoted morals, intel
