THE HAPPINESS OF EIYs1u,

EIysium was the name given by the an
cent Greeks to the resting place of the
righteous dead, where they should enjoy
eternal peace and happiness. None but
she pure in heart, thetruthful and the gen.
rrous could tread the asphodel meadows of
of the Elysian fields and it was land of
everlasting delight. When, therefore, Mrs.
Kate Sherman, of Streator, ILL.,, said re-
Gently that she had been in Elysium,
though of course she spoke fguratively, it
argued that some great good fortune and
Joy had come to her. And such, indeed,
was the truth. Mrs Sherman tells how it
was in this way:
81 have suffered from inlammatory
rheumatism for more than thirty years.
Heretofore the pain would succumb to the
application of hot wet flannel, but at my
last attack circumstances had eonspired to
aggravate the disease, and became help
less. My hands and feet were swollen
enormously, and | suffered almost mortal
agony. My physician brought me bot
tie Of Athlophoros After taking the
third dose was in Elysium, and was free
from pain. By the time | had taken
bottle and half felt so wonderfully I'M
proved that discontinued the medicine.
/ have an ungovernable dislike to all med
icine, but | willsay that Athiophoros prob
ably saved my life, as | was running down
rapidly, and could not have endured the
pain much longer 1t afforded me The
only relief ever experienced except from
hot water, and that had failed me.'
The Rev. Samuel Porter, of Crete Ill.,,
says of the effect of Athlophoros upon his
wife:
Mrs Porter was very much benefited
| by the first bottle Before she commenced
| taking it she could not walk, she was so
badly afflicted with rheumatism, but she
was soon able TO walk. She sleeps well.
Mr.. John liews, our neighbor, was very
badly ofl'with the rheumatism last winter,
and was not able TO work or even TO get out
Of his room. One hottie Of Athlophoros
cured him, but he has to keep it by him to
take when he feels his old difficulties"
| Another clergyman, the Rev. G. Hart
ley, of lIuntley, ILL.,, gives this as his ex-
perience with the remedy:
| For six months | suffered severely
from an attack of rheumatism. A friend
sent me a notice of several reliable cures
effected by Athlophoros. | procured the
medicine, and less than one bottle COM
pletely cured me, and have not had the
least indication of return of the painful
disease. have recommended it 10 Others

| \. M. Blakney, who lives at the corner o
| Union and Green streets, Decatur, I'll.
only confirms the general testimony to III,
value of Athlophoros when he says:
