careful now to keep what dooryard they
have left Your correspondent visited the
Lake recently and dropped in to see "Uncle
Billy HubbelI in his comfortable cottage
under the pines. MIR. Hubbell established
himself at the Lake before the boom COM
menced. aud has one of the prettiest loca-
tons there. a,.
Mr.. HubbelI said that this was the frs'
spring ia twenty years in which ne nau peen

He thought ne had contracted this ulsc"S'
while running rs express messenger on W.
Erie and other railroads between lS49 an

oe,inc "reminiscences of these early days In
1915 he went to the Western frontier, ana

since. Speaking OF the many efforts ne hau
made TO get relief from this painful allmeh',

tho las Vegas and Hamas springs, and !atef
he tried those at Manitou, Col, ana niltie
pocL Ark Coming cast he tried the White

and Clifton and Avon, in New YORK, ou'
without being able 10 get the slightest relie'.

him the slightest benefit he was pretty wei
discouraged. However. to please Mr.. HaI
