HELPED THE CHIEF.
How a Loyal Engineer Did His Brother Great Service. Meadvllle. Pa., Nov. 12, 1900.—(Special.)—The Loyalty of the Members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers is proverbial. A circumstance occurred in this city some ago, which emphasizes this feeling. Frank J. Zeller is chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers No. 143. He is extremely popular amonj; his fellow railway men, and one of the best known engineers running out of Meadville. When the announcement was made a short time ago that Frank was pretty sick, it caused a great deal of regret among the boys. Soon he was missed from his engine, having had to “lay off” on account of his back. A brother of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, who had been- ill with similar symptoms some time before, and who had been pulled through, called to see Mr. Zeller, and In a brotherly way took with him a box of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, the remedy which had cured, him. He advised Mr. Zeller to try them, with the resuß that after seven boxes had been used, he was entirely well, and able to work. In an intervieV Mr. Zeller states: “I had suffered for four years with this affliction, being often kept awake at night with pains, and at times unable to work. I tried several of the advertised remedies, and found that they did me no earthly good. Finally, a member of our order, who had been cured of Kidney Disease by Dodd’s Kidney Pills brought me a box, and asked me to try them. 1 had little faith in them, but as a drowning man grasps at a straw to help him, so I took the pills. I used seven boxes, and am today as well and strong a man as there ia in Pennsylvania.” Naturally, Mr, Zeller feels very grateful, and his complete recovery has delighted his many friends, and none more than the good brother, who feels that he was Instrumental in saving the life of the chief. Dodd’s Kidney Pills never fall to cure Kidney Trouble. ■ Sold for 50 cents a box, all dealers.
