"Miss Kilmansegg and her golden Leg
will never DO forgotten so long as the
genius Of Thomas Hood, with all hi, gen.
tie humor and tender pathos is remember
ed, but i il doubtful If any one will ever
envy the heroine Of that poem her unique
limb, which brought With il SO many NILS
fortunes. In this prosaic age good strong
leg of flesh, bone, and muscle is much to
be preferred, whether its possessor be apro-
fessional pedestrian or a solid unassuming
citizen.
II is TO this last class that Mr.. M. p.
Schrock, Of 672 West Lake street. Chicago,
belongs. Mr.. Shrock is we'll known dry
goods merchant, and counts himself for
tunate in having pair of good strong legs.
For one of his legs he has peculiar re-
gard, as he came near losing it through
rheumatism. Athlophoros saved it for him,
however. and for that invaluable remedy he
now cherishes an almost equal regard. The
story is we'll told by Mr.. Schrock in his own
words
en- with rheumatism in its very worst form,
and was confined to my bed entirely help
less for about four weeks. My leg panied
me SO intensely that could not let it rest
on the bed without some support. So
had pulley attached from the ceiling and
to that sling was fastened. 1 could rest
my leg in this, changing the height, and in
that manner managed to obtain some little
relief. During the four weeks lay in bed
tried many remedies without avail. Final
" 1 made change and employed physi :
clans. They tried their very best to give
me relief. but could not. Instead of get
ting better, was growing worse.
my doctor finally decided that it would
be necessary to make an incision in my
thigh, and if there was not a marked i'm
provement in my condition from that OPP
GRAFTON, that amputation of my leg would
be required. This, as you may well imag-
inc, discouraged and disheartened me be-
yond measure. About this time my wife
noticed in Richmond, Ind, paper, fol-
which We subscribe, the name of a personal
friend who had been cured by the use OF
Althophoros. She called my attention to
| it, and / said at once, Get bottle and try
IL. one DOuBut DOttle, tne uOctOT was
discharged and we began using it immedi-
ately. / experienced great relief in the first
few doses. In two days after / began with
the medicine l was in my store attending to
my business, and l have not been troubled
| with rheumatism since"
"How much Athlophoros did you use fol-
| this remarkable cure, Mr.. Schrock?"
about one and third bottles. The re-
naming two-thirds of bottle is still un-
used at my house"
Don't you think it was very quick cure
| for SO bad case?" was asked.
| II certainly think it not only quick" an
| swered Mr.. Schrock, "but wonderful, and
| feel that cannot say too much for Athlo-
] phoros. never let an opportunity pass
when / can recommend it, as it surely die
everything for me-"
Mr.. Schrock is now in the best of health
and considers himself living example OF
what Athlophoros can do for those whom
rheumatism has brought even to deaths
| door.

| gist, we will send it, express paid on receipt Of
| regular price-one dollar per bottle. We prefer
| that you buy 1t from your druggist, but II he
