YOUNG AT FIFTY.
HOW A METHODIST MINISTER
CARRIES HIS YEARS.

Rev. William Young, Of Oswego, Tells
Reporter His Secret Of 6 ood Health
will Surely Benefit Everyone Who
Follows His Advice.
From the Times, Oswego, N. Y.
Probably no man is better known or
more highly respected in Oswego, N.
Y, than Rev. William Young, Of the
Methodist church. Mr.. Young has not
conference appointment, but holds
responsible position with the Oswego
City Savings bank, where he has been
trusty employe for the past twenty
years.
In the spring of 1894 Mr.. Young
looked as if his time was limited and
that he would be laid at rest with the
great majority before the snow covered
the ground. But, instead of failing as
predicted, he soon gained more
healthy look and appeared stronger.
AS the months went by this improve
ment continued, until now he ia as rug
ged and apparently as healthy as a
young man of thirty, although his
gray locks denote a more advanced age.
A Times reporter determined to find
out what had made this great, and it
might be said phenomenal change,
called upon Mr.. Young at the bank
and put the question direct and received
the following reply:
In truth am changed man, and
| owe my present good health to DIR.
Williams Pink Pills. In the spring
of 1894 l was all run down and had
commenced to think that my time
had come. l had to be prescribed for
by physicians, and although received
temporary relief, the same old trouble
came back again and was worse than
before. l had no strength or appetite,
and physically l was in miserable
condition. After my work l would 60
home, but the general lassitude which
hung over me left me without any am
bition, and when / would 60 to the
table to eat, my appetite failed me and
I would have to leave without taking
hardly any nourishment. My kidneys
were also badly affected, and was in
utter despair. One day, here at the
bank, l happened to pick up one Of the
local papers, and my eye fell on an
advertisement of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills. The advertisement gave a de-
scription of a man who, afflicted as /
then was, had been cured by using DR..
Williams Pink Pills. was not be-
lever in that kind of doctoring, but
concluded as last resort to try a box
of the pills, making up my mind that
if they did not help me certainly
would not be injured any. Going
to a drugstore. purchased box Of DR.. |
Williams Pink Pills and commenced |
taking them according to directions.
Very soon after began to feel better
and l saw l had made no mistake in |
trying the pills, and before the first
box was emptied felt so much i'm.

another. l had taken seven boxes Of |
the pills, and at the end of last sum-
mer felt was entirely cured and |
discontinued their use, but always keep
box handy if occasion requires. 4
am now entirely cured. The lassitude |
has left me, my kidneys are all right

again, and instead Of feeling like q
man of fifty, which is my age. feel
like youngster of twenty, and give

credit for this great change. / have
