LIKE A MIRACLE
How a. Losomotor Ataxia Sufferer
Was Cured,
, From the Evening
James Crocket, a sturdy old Scotchman,
living In Detroit, Mich., at 88 Montcalm
Street, -nasaakeAubout his wonderful cure.
"First," he mid, "I must tell you some
thing of my life before my almost fatal sick
ness. I was born in Scotland in 1822, nnd
camo to tliis country in 1848. I om a marine
engineer by trade. In 1872 I was In the
employ of tho Detroit nnd Cleveland Navi
gation Co., and for fifteen years I was chief
engineer on ono of their big passenger
steamers. My first boat was the II. N. Rice,
which wns burned at tlio jlocks. Then I
was transferred to the Ruble, which was
chartered to mako tho run between Detroit
and Cleveland.
" I brought' out tho new steamer the ' City
of tho Straits,' and for years acted ns her
chief engineer. It h a great responsibility,
the position of chief engineer on those big
passenger palncei. Thousands of lives nro
held in the keeping of tho engineer. The
anxiety causes a great nervous strain, and
the strictest attention is necessary. Not for
a moment must lie loso Ms watchfulness.
"For fifteen years I carefully watched
the big engines nnd boilers without a single
accident, nnd only noticed that I was getting
nervous. Suddenly without warning I wns
taken sick, nnd in less thnn a week I was
prostrated. I had tho best of physicians.
I grow gradually worse, and at the council
of doctors, they snld I hod nervous prostra.
tion, nnd had destroyed my whole nervous
system nnd would never be nblo to bo up
ngnin. They said I hml worn myself out by
tho long nervous strain caused by yratching
nnd worrying about tho machinery. For
three long years I wns unable to move from
inv imi without assistance, ino ciocior sum
I had locomotor ataxia, and would never be
nble to wnlWagain.
"Tho pains and suffering I experienced
during those years are almost indescribable.
