His Youth Was Returned.
From the Courier and Freeman Potsdaae. N. 7.
st. Lawrence County has nationa
reputation as the banner county of the
Empire State. Men reared in old ST.
Lawrence have achieved notoriety as con-
suls, governors and renowned jurists,
and have distinguished themselves and
the land of their nativity in every walk
of life. There is an indefinable some
thing that lends strength to manhood
there, and gives him the bone and sinew
and the mental energy that brings sue
cess In life. The winds, first blowing
from the majestic St. Lawrence River,
and then from the pine and srruce-cov-
cred mountains OF the Adirondaoks, give
a richness to the atmosphere. The out
DOR life in this climate gives a man
strong aid sturdy physique, and his free
and independent mode of living gives
him rugged character.
John Henry Henderson was man that
enjoyed all these study characteristics.
He was always strong man and had
| nevar had fever or other serious illness.
Brought up in prosperous farming
community he became one of its mental
| ly and physically strong citizens and
| gained livelihood at carpentry, as did
| Joseph in the Bible days. But at last
break came that threatened to forever
wreck his health and happiness and end
| his days of usefulness and activity.
In conversation with newspaper man,
Mr.. Henderson told his story as follows:
81 had spent two years in Minnesota
and the same length of time in Oregon,
| but the summer of '94 found me back
at my old ST. Lawrence County home,
in tue town of Hopkinton, working in
dustriously at carpentering. My home
and shop were on farm, and my income
was derived from repairing and building
for my farmer neighbors.
| sit was on Ii hot July afternoon in the
summer of '94 that one of my neighbOrS
sent for me to come out to his hay field.
| He had broken the reach to his wagon
and wanted it repaired at once so that
he would not be delayed in his haying.
To fix the wagon had to have long.
heavy plank, and the nearest I could
find was a mile aud half distant.'
| Many man would shrink from
shouldering II heavy plank on hot af-
| ternoon and walking mile and half,
hut Mr.. Henderson said 81 didn' t
| think much about it: had always been
strong and so l carried the plank into the
field and mended the wagon. Before the
afternoon was over | found that 1 had
done wrong, that I had hurt my back
and had to lie down, while sharp pains
darted through my back. head and neck.
"That was the beginning of my
4rouble. I found that / couldn 4
straiehten up after that and | had to
quit work. The pains troubled me al
moss constantly, and after sitting still q
few moments / would have to get up and
move around in hopes Of finding relief.

"When I tried to work my nose would

down. Linlments were no good, and
nothing gave relief until began using

read one of DR.. Williams advertisements
and bought some OF the pills, which
commenced using, and after l had used

with my complaint"
To-day Mr.. Henderson is we'll man,
strong, erect, Observation-Disclosures and with
a ruddy complexion, notwithstanding his
sixty eight years of age. He worked

Pink Pills were truly a God-send tt
MIR. Henderson, and he thoroughly ap

to know how wonderfully they have
benefited him. He now enjoys the vigo

for him. He says: 81 can work all da,
