A "trip to Colfax Springs.

Colfax Springs, on the Chicago, Rock
1slaud aud Pacific Railroad, is a popn-
lar health resort to which many West
ern people go to try the waters, which
are noted for their healing properties.
They are claimed to be beneficial for
rheumatism and kindred troubles. Mr..
Charles T. Griffin, butcher of Stuart,
Ia, recently made trial of them and,
while they appear TO have done him
some good, he afterwards discovered a
cure which proved Infinitely more
eflicacious. He gives this account:
My attack was very severe one,
and for three months | was compelled
to close my store, as | was not able to
attend 10 business at all. NV Joints
We're swollen and there did not seem
10 be any part of my body that did not
ache. After suffering in this way
until the pain was almost beyond en-
durance ! went to Colfax Springs to
try the effects of the waters The day
left home | had TO be carried down
stairs After remaining at the Springs q
month / came back home feeling some
what better A few weeks later, how
ever, ! had i relapse which Frustrated
me the same as before. 1t was at
that time that learned of Athlophoros.
/ sent for a bottle of it, and in
fifteen minutes after | had taken the
first dose ] felt the effects of it.
and when / had finished my third
bottle was well. have not had any
rheumatism since and have attended to
my business every day, which is a
thorough test, as / am obliged to be
out all kinds of weather and at all sea-
sons Of the year. II | had known OF
Athlophoros in the first place ii would
have saved me hundreds of dollars and
the detriment 10 my business in closing
my store. | take great pleasure in
recommending it to others.
DIR. l.. ID. Rounds, dentist, for six
teen years a resident of Oskaloosa, but
for the past three years of Alba, Ia,
relates an equally pleasant experience
with Athlophoros:
rheumatism, he says, "has been
my most serious trouble until about a
year ago, when | used g bottle of Athlo-
phOros. Since that time have not had
a twinge of it. Previously had been
subject to sciatic rheumatism for several
years, many times so badly that / could
scarcely drag myself around. When
commenced with AthIophoros my legs
were so stiff that / could scarcely get
up the steps to my Office. But | am
not troubled that way now. and the
ioiuts Of my legs are as free as they
ever were. had tried so many rene
dies before that had no faith in Athlo-
pboros when ] began with it. but !
changed my mind after had taken a
few doses and found relief All / used
was one bottle. 1t is the grandest
medicine ever heard of for rheumatism
My wife has also used Athlophoros
with success equal to mine.
During the years | have been in
business, says o. +. Giyins. druggist
at Stuart, Mr. Griilin's home. - have
sold many different kinds of proprietary
medicines but none that has given such
universal satisfaction as Athlophoros
has for rheumatism. / always feel
when hand out bottle of that medi-
cine TO a customer that / am giving
him the full value of his money.
Since | have seen its wonderful effects
among my customers | gladly recon-
mend it in eyervi Instance for rheuma-
tism."
