losing it through rheumatism. Athlo-
phoros saved it for him however, and for
that Invaluable remedy he now cherishes
An almost equal regard. The story is
well told by Mr.. Schrock in his own
words
During the Spring of 1884 l was
stricken with rheumatism in its very
worst form, and was confined to my bed
entirely helpless 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 at

sling was fastened. | could rest my leg
in this, changing the height, and in tina;
manner managed to obtain some little
relief During the four weeks l lay in
bed tried many remedies without avail
Finally | made change and employed
physicians. They tried their very best
to give me relief, but could not. Instead
of getting 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 q marked I'M
provement in my condition from that
operation that amputation Of my leg
would be required. This, as you may
well imagine, discouraged and disheart
ened me beyond measure. About this
time my wife noticed in Richmond

the name of personal friend who had
been cured by the use of Athlophoros
She called my attention to it, and | said

How much Athlophoros did you use

"Don't you think it was very quick

answered Mr.. Schrock, "but wonderful,
