while running rs express messenger on tho
Erie and other railroads between 1S49 and
1889, although he did not feel its acute
symptoms until some fifteen years later Mr.

In the United States and recalls many inter
estins "reminiscences Of these early days. In
1876 he went to the Western frontier and
has suffered from soiatic rheumatism ever
since. Speaking OF the many efforts he had
made to get relief from this painful ailment,
he said that while in Now Mexico he visited
the Las Vegas and Hamns springs, and later
he tried those at Manitou, Col, and Little
Rock, Ark. Coming east no tried tho White
sulphur Spring. Ohio. st. Catherine, Can,
and Clifton and Avon, in New York, but

and is now on his fourth box OF tho pills Hn
