q Popular Ex-Mayor..

s Ex-Mayor Newton, of Des Moines,
La, 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 q
politician, ne has also recently been
playing the part of good Samaritan
with success equal to his triumphs in
politics. The fainting traveller by the
wayside, whom he has raised up and re-
freshed by good counsel in the last in
stance, is MIR. George A. Crandale,
the manager for Oberne, 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
wretched plight as to need help and
how it was cheerfully given.
81 have never had an ache or pain of
rheumatism, he said, ''since 1 used
Athlophoros and the medicine cost me
only 50. If any one had guaranteed
to cure me would willingly have paid
him $50, yes 500. My rheumatism
was inflammatory, mostly in my
ankles, but a little in the wrist. 1
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 l managed to be
about and attend to my business.
Zone day, during the time I was sui
fering so much, l 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. I told him that
it was rheumatism, whereupon he ad
vlsed me to get bottle of Athlophoros.
did not get it then, as I had nc
faith in patent medicines and did no,
| want to take any. A short time
after this l wrote to an old friend,
Charles P, 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- l then got some,
but really had no faith in its curing
me l began to get relief from it in
twenty-four hours. Icontinued taking
it until had used three dollars worth
when my rheumatism, both the pain
and the swelling, was gone, and I have
not had any return since. That is now
over q year ago.
Ex-Mayor Newton based his recon-
mendation of Athlophoros to Mr.. Gran
dale upon the very remarkable cure il
had effected in the case of his wife
That lady thus tells all about it:
II have been comparatively free from
rheumatism for the past year and a
half. Previous to that had been 8
great sufferer for years and had re.
sorted to many remedies, but nothing
| would do what Athlophoros did fol
me. 1 have had few twlnges Of
late, but l attribute that to myself
and not to the medicine, as | have
not been Sc careful as l 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. l have
recommended it in many cases and ir
every instance that I know of the re-
suits have been very satisfactory. 1 dc
! not hesitate in the least in recommend
ing it most heartily to every rheumatic
sufferer

once from us, as directed. ATHLoPHoRos
