Cripple no Longer

Boston Globe

Nashua, N. H., Jan. 20.—After suffering untold agonies from muscular rheumatism Charles H. Sager of this city declares that he has been cured by Christian Science. For five years or more he has been a familiar sight on the streets of the city riding an old-fashioned tricycle to and from his home on Crown Hill every pleasant day during the warmer months. He disappeared with the first snow each season and was seen no more until spring.

All the business and professional men of the city knew him and pitied him. As he said himself hundreds of people knew him and spoke to him whose names he did not know. His tricycle was an old one with hard rubber tires, and weighed about eighty-five pounds.

In consequence his progress through the streets was slow. Last summer a well-known Concord woman presented him with a late model pneumatic-tired tricycle, and after that he was frequently seen by cyclists on the roads leading to the nearby country towns.
