A Trip to Colfax Springs.

Colfax Springs on the Chicago, Rock
Island and Pacific Railroad, is a popu.
lar health resort to which many vest
ern people 20 to try the waters, which
are noted for their healing prop
critics. They are claimed to be beneficial
for rheumatism and kindred troubles.
Mr.. Charles L. Griffin, a butcher of
Stuart. Ia, recently made a trial of
them and, while they appear to have
done him some good, he afterwards dis
covered a cure which proved infinitely
more etficacious. He gives this &C.
count:
"My attack was a very severe one,
and for three months | was compelled
to close my store, as | was not able to
attend to business at all. My joints
were swollen and there did not seem to
be any part of my body that did not
ache. After suffering in this way un-
til the pain was almo st beyond endur-
ance, l 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
a month | came back home feeling
somewhat better. A few weeks later,
however, l had "a relapse which pros
trated me the same as before. 1t was
at that time that l learned Of Athlo-
phOros. | 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. l have not had any rheuma-
tism 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 seasons of the
year. II | had known of A~thlophoros
in the first place 1t would have saved
me hundreds of dollars and the detri-
ment to my business in closing my
store. | take great pleasure in recon-
mending it to Others"
DR.. l.. ID. Rounds, a dentist, for six
teen years "a resident Of OSkaloosa, but
for the past three years OF Abba, Ia.
relates an equally pleasant experience
with Athlophoros:
"Rheumatism," he says, "has been
my most serious trouble until about a
year ago, when l used "A bottle Of Ath-
lOphorOs. 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 AthlophOrOs

scarcely get up the steps to my office.
But | am not troubled that way now,
a1d the joints of my legs are as free as
they eve were. l had tried so many
remedies before that l had no faith in
Athlophoros when | began with it, but
| changed my mind after | had taken a
few doses and found relief. All | used
was n bottle. 1t is the g~randest medi-
cine ever heard of for rheumatism. My
wife has also usel AthlophOros with
success equal to mine"
During the years l have been in
business" says O. e. Givins, a drug
gist at Stuart. Mr.. Grifin's home, Il
have sold many different kinds Of pro-
priety medicines but none that has Civ
en- such universal satisfaction as Ath-
lOphoros has for rheumatism. | al
ways feel when | hand out a bottle Of
that medicine to a customer that | am
him the full value of his money.
Since | have seen its wonderful effects
among my customers / gladly recon-
mend it in every instance for Theuma-
tism.
