of Railroad Man How He Was
Saved.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.l
Away up on the California coast, 14O
miles north of San Francisco, in the
beautiful little seaside town of Caspar.
lives man upon whom modern mir
acle has been wrought. The man is
Charles l.. Hubbard, well known all over
the coast for his faithfulness and intee-
rlty. His word in dozen towns along
Calllornla's coast is as good as bond,
according to what leading citizens say.
Mr.. Hubbard has worked for the Mendo-
emo Lumber Company for the last thir-
teen years. He is working for the COM
pany now as locomotive engineer, and
more conscientious and industrious
man in a more trying and exhaustive
occupation could hardly be found.
Mr.. Hubbard was found, after diligent
questioning, in the cab of his locomotive.
His hands and face were covered with
engine grease and perspiration, betoken-
ing his hard labor, but his clear, blue
eyes were those OF happy, honest man.
The Chronicle man climbed into the cab
and said: Mr.. Hubbard, I've come
all the way from San Francisco to hear
the story OF your suffering and how you
were cured"
well, Pm glad to see you," said Mr..
Hubbard. "l've half been expecting to
see some newspaper man from there
about 1T, Tor my case has attracted wide
spread attention. I've had rheumatism
THAT'S what my trouble has been-for
years. l get it in this hot cab when the
cold wind and fog from the ocean blow
in here.
" But, to begin at the beginning, | must
tell you that l have been working here
for this company for thirteen wears. |
have had rheumatism all the time, and
| think / first contracted it at the Chick
ahominy swamp in the war of the rebell-
ion. ! suffered terribly with it, espe-
cially OF late years. Why, some nights
lwent home all doubled over and hardly
able to walk. don't know how l kept
AZ work, but suppose it was because
had to. suffered great deal in my
bed. Some nights have walked up and
found my arm outside of the covers. At
such times could not put it back in
bed, but had to lift it with the other
hand and get it under the clothes very
slowly. OF course, was trying every
thing. l spent money for all sorts of
patent medicines, paid doctors here and
in San Francisco for treatment, and
bought lot OF electric belts. paid
over $40 for electric belts, got the most
powerful could find, but they did no
good. Well, sir, my wifes sister in ST.
John, New Brunswick, sent us a lot of
papers from time to time, and nearly all
of them had remarkable stories of cures
by medicine called DIR. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. Finally my wife
got at me to try some of the pills. got
some, and there was such an improve
ment in me after taking two or three
boxes that now wouldn't think of try
ing to get along without them in the
house. My wife, too, has had much
nervous trouble, and she began to take
the pills with wonderful effect. They
proved the best thing in the world for
me, and my wife thinks there is nothing
like them for nervous trouble. Our faith
in them is so great that we recommend
them to every one. People laughed at
me at first and / laughed myself, but they
turned out to be the thing, and wouldn't
take lots of money for the good they
have done me. As for the neighbors, l
have purchased $l5 worth of the pills
for them, and they are doing them good
for all sorts OF ailments. can give the
pills the strongest recommendation, as |
tried everything before without any good
effect, and these nave done wonders for
me-"
Mrs. Hubbard, the wife of the engi-.
neer, was found in her pretty little home,
which is fairly embowered in flowers.
She was most cordial, and corroborated
all her husband had said.
The neighbors and fellow-workmen of
Mr.. Hubbard were most warm in their
praises of the engineer, and also con-
iirmed the story of the improvement in
his health.
