The Narrow Escape "f Yardmaster j. T.
Elliott. He Rolled Off the Track just in
Time TO save Himself From a Horrible
Death.
Pittsburg, Pa, Nov. a-dmaster J. T.
Elliott had IA narrow escape from death in
the pennsy ylvania railroad yards which was
attended by circumstances that We're Pc
cular in more ways than one.
He had Just thrown a switch and was
crossing the track in front of an engine
when he was seen to stagger and then sud
denly to collapse. He fell almost under the
pilot but fortunately rolled off the track to
one side. He was not injured.
After that said he to a reporter, 81
made up my mind to quit work. The fall
which might have cost me my life was
caused by nervous trouble and might
occur again at any time
But you don't seem to have the trouble
now, remarked the newspaper man.
Pink Pills for Pale People brought me
around again after the doctors had pro-
nounced me incurable. The trouble began
with a severe pain in the legs and the
physician at that time said it was muscular
rheumatism. He gave me medicine which l
took for some time without seeing any i'm
provement. The pain continued and my
strength kept ebbing away. l noticed that
| was not as agile as | used to be and could
not catch and climb moving car AS readily
as once dld. lhen came my narrow escape
and gave up work.
"a different physician this time said |
had locomotor ataXia, but Only grew worse
under his treatment. | began to have at
tackS of vomiting, one of which lasted Tor
sixteen days, | grew thin as a skeleton ana
very weak. Finally had a consultation of
three Pittsburg physicians and they pro
nounced me incurable. The pain in my
body and legs continued to increase and
became 50 severe that | had to take NOR
phine sometimes to get little relief be
came Just about helpless with no control of
my legs.

MI. Elliott was in the employ o. the
Pennsylvania railroad for fourteen years as
yardmaster. He lives at No. 5Sl5 Park

proof that this is not an ordinary medicine
