The ENGINEERS STORY.
A TRUE AND INTERESTING NARRATIVE
FROM CASPAR, CAL.
The Remarkable Experience of Rail-
road Man-How He Was Saved.
From the San FRANCISCO Chronicle.

Away up on the California coast. 40
miles north of San Francisco, IN the beau
tiful little seaside town of Caspar, lives
man upon whom a modern miracle has
been wrought. The man is Charles L.
Hubbard, well known all over the coast
for his faithfulness and integrity. His
word in a dozen towns along California's
coast is as good as bond. according to
what leading citizens say. Mr. Hubbard
has worked for the Mend0cino Lumber
Company for the last thirteen years. He
is working tor the company now as loco
motive 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 perspiratioD, betokening
his hard labor, but his clear. blue eyes
were those of a 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 We're cured"
We'll, I'm glad to see you." said MIR.
Hubbard. I've half been expecting to
see some newspaper man from there about

attention. Eve had rheumatsm-thats
what my trouble has been-for years. |

and fog from the ocean blow in here.
but. to begin at the beginning, l must
tell you that l have been working here for
this company for thirteen years. l have
had rheumatism all the time. and think
| first contracted it at the Chicahominy
swamp in the war Of the rebellion. l suf-
fered terribly with it, especially of late
years. Why, some nights L went home all
doubled over and hardly able to walk. [

great deal in my bed. Some nights l have
walked up and found my arm outside of the
| covers. At such times l could not put il
back in bed. but had to lift it with the
| other hand and get it under the clothes
very slowly. OF course l was trying
everything. spent money for all sorts of
patent medicines. paid doctors here and in
| San Francisco for treatment and bought q
lot OF electric belts. l paid over $40 for
electric belts, got the most powerful L
could find, but they did no good. Well, sir,
my wife's sister i'll st. John, New Bruins
wick, sent us lot of papers from time to
time, and nearly all of them had remarka-
| bic stories of cures by a 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 improvement in me after taking two or
three boxes that now | wouldn't think Of
| trying to get along without them in the
! house. My wife, too, has had much nerv-
! Gus 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 l
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
S15 worth of the pills for them. and they
are doing them good for all sorts of all
recommendation. as l tried everything
before without any good effect, and these
have done wonders for me-"
Mrs. Hubbard. the wife of the engineer
was found in her pretty little home. which
is fairly embowered in flowers. She was
most cordial and corroborated all her hns-
| band had said.
The neighbors and fellow-workmen of
/ Mr.. Hubbard were most warm in their
praises of the engineer and also confirmed
the story of the improvement in his health.
