AN ENGINEERS STORY.
A TRUE AND INTERESTING MARIA
TIVE FROM CASPAR, CAL.
lFtom The San Franc,sco chroniclel

Away up on the California coast, 40
miles north of San Francisco, in the
beautiful little seaside town of Caspar,
lives man upon whom modern mira
Gle has been wrought. The man is
Charles l.. Hubbard, well known all
over the coast for his faithfulness and
integrity. His word in dozen towns
along CALIFORNIA; coast is as good as Il
bond, according to what leading citizens
say. Mr.. Hubbard has worked for the
Mendocino Lumber Company for the
last thirteen years. He is working for
the company now as a locomotive engi-
neer, and more conscientious and in
dustrious man in more trying and ex-
haustive 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. "Ive half been expecting
to see some newspaper man from there
about it, for my case has attracted wide
spread attention. I've had rheumatism
that's what my trouble has been-for
years. 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 | have been working
here for this company for thirteen wears.
| have had rheumatism all the time, and
think first contracted it at the Chica-
hominy swamp in the war of the rebel
lion. | suffered terribly with it, espec-
tally of late years. Why, some nights |
went home all doubled over and hardly
able to walk. | don't know how kept
at work but suppose it was because
had to. | suffered a great deal in nv
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. | 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 nc
good. WE'LL sir, my wife's 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 a medicine called DR.. 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 i'm.
proVement in me after taking two OF
three boxes that now | wouldn't think
OF trying 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 fol-
me, and my wife thinks there is nothing
like them for nervous trouble. Oul
faith in them is so great that we recon-
mend 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, | have purchased $lE
worth of the pills for them, and they
are doing them good for all sorts of all
ments. | can give the pills the strong
est recommendation as | tried every
thing before without any good effect
and these have done wonders for me-"
Mrs. Hubbard, the wife of the engi
neer, was found in her pretty little home
which is fairly uncovered in flowers
She was most cordial, and corroborateC
all her husband had said.
The neighbors and fellow workmen o
Mr.. Hubbard were most warm in thei
praises of the engineer, and also con
tirmed the story of the improvement il
his health.
