A nv LEASE or LIFE. When one has been suffering the agoniet ®f a severe attack of rheumatism, neural gia or sciatica, and relief comes, it seems as if a new lease of life had been granted. Such have been the feelings of thousands who, after trying physicians and number less remedies, have used Athlophoros and found to their great joy that this medicine really did cure these diseases. 867 Fulton St., Brooklyn, N. Y. After suffering for nearly two years with a continuous attack of rheumatism; after trying almost every specific, domestic and foreign, which the credulity of a wise man, or a fool, might lead one to trust in, it was a double pleasure to me to find a remedy which, originating in the famous "City of Elms"— the, home of my ancestors and its first founders—has proved so invalua ble a blessing. It is nearly six months since I was led to trace out the significance of that word Athlophoros. It has proved to me, in * good degree, a renewer of my former vigor and strength, so that I have been enabled to move about with almost yomthful activity, and to feel, while ap proaching my " three score y ears and ten," that I have a new hold on life. I believe your philosophy of the disease to be correct that it has its origin in the blood, and that your remedy touches those joints and mus cles, loosening the nodes, which have been brought into subjection to this dreadful disease, and sets them free as no other remedy that I have tried. I have been cautious for so long a time in recommend ing it to others till I had tried its efficacy in my own case; and I am now free to state the estimate I put upon it, as the safest and most efficient cure 1 have any knowledge of. A. B. DAVENPORT. Every druggist should keep Athlophoros and Athlophoros Pills, but where they can not be bought of the druggist the Athlo phoros Co.] 112 Wall St., New York, will •end either (carriage Daid) on receipt of regular price, which is SI.OO per i>ottle for Athlophoros and 50c. for Pills.
