OLD RssIDENTs OF WISCONSIN.

The Oh residents who Grst settled Wis.
sonsia ai.,l lave watched it grow from a
ihinly l.a..,l,atel territory into ,ne OF the
most prosperous aul progressive States of
the C.lun a.e fast passing away. Livery
few days are printed accounts of the death
of soMe village patriarch, whose tales Of
fights with tbs Indians and of hardships
endured and overcome in carrier days have
seemed to the rising generation like chap
tiers in a;;ciel,t history. To those who still
remain all hoa,r is due. They will not
be Win US long. but while they yet tarry
their experience anS advice should be
needed. Samuel Rarstow, Of Lancaster,
Wis, is one of these old residents and is
well known, not only in the State, but be-
y0nd It's borders as we'll. In accounting
some Of his experiences recently he said:
IL have suffered more or less from rheu-
ma.lsm and general debility for number
of years. For the last year the trouble has
constantly increased and for month l
could not dress myself or get up from my
chair without help. From my head to IA.
feet every cord and muscle was stiff and
sore. During this time l used various
remedies, but all ~ no purpose, and con-
tinued to get worse. My attention was
called 10 Arh!op!ioros. 1 procured bottle
and on TIE 22d of january, 1854, began TO
use it. | took FIVE doses and then slept
easily until eight o'clock in the morning.
l then got up and dressed myself and
walked out without cane. | was aston
ished at the result and could hardly realize
that the medicine had produced such an,
effect. l AN getting to be an old mani
am now seventy-two years oid-and l
doat suppose that il will make me young
man, but it will help the lamp of life to
burn down calmly"
Mrs. H. +. Bowers, Of Racine, Wis, is
veil known in that city as one Of the old
residents, she having lived there thirty
seven years. Her present address is s02
State street. She has this to say:
Il have been troubled with rheumatism
for the last three years. did not suffer
as much pain as some do with the same
complaint, my difficulty being principally
stiffness Of the joints. The trouble was
mostly in my knee joints, and it was with
much difficulty that | could bend them,
especially in going up and down stairs.
During the time was troubled in this way
tried many medicines without any good
effects. Athlophoros came 10 my notice,
and being anxious to get soae relief I
thought would try it. After using it for
short time was able to bend my knees
easily and could 60 up or down stairs.
Mrs. I. b. Neff, Of Calamine, Wis, who
has herself been benefited by taking Athlo-
phoros for her rheumatism, tells an inter-
esting story of the improvement wrought
in her brother-i n-law, Mr.. John W. Neff,
of CaIamine, an old gentleman of seventy
five years. She says:
"Waen he got the first bottle of Athlo-
phoros, which l sent for for him, he was
% badly off with rheumatism and had
been for near :. year that he could not
step without two crutches. 1t took two or
three men to help him out of wagon or
sleigh, and he could not dress or undress
himself alone. He had paid out great
many dollars for remedies. He took
eighteen bottles Of Athlophoros, and now
he can walk three-quarters of a mile with
Just one cane, and can hoe in the garden
and chop wood"
