To the old resi dents, as well as to thesohool ohildren, his figure is as fam iliar as th a t of Mt. Hood or the state capital. C aptain Benson, of the F irst K en tucky battery, detaohed from the 119th Illinois infantry, is now seventy-four years old, and has taken p a rt in tw en ty-seven hard-fought battles, besides a g re at m any interesting skirmishes. H e is pensioned for in ju ry in the breast, from oonoussion of a shell, and for a w ound in the rig h t shoulder, oaused by leaping from a oar w hile be ing taken as a prisoner from Anderson- v ille to P ine Forest. For the past tw en ty years he has suffered alm ost con tin u a lly from m alaria and shortness of breath, and has been sttlioted w ith rheu m atism in the legs and shoulders to suoh an extent th a t he had not seen a w ell day in all th a t time. He was also afflicted w ith constipation and p ile s E ighteen years ago Mr. Benson removed from Illinois to Oregon, on aooount of his failing health, and since the olose of the w ar has not been able to support him self by m anual labor, and has had alm ost oonstant m edical attendance by physioians of all the d if ferent schools of praotioe. To see him now, tipping the scales a t 910 pounds, enjoying regular health, his cheeks m antled w ith a fresh, rosy complex ion, w alking off proud and erect, w ith a fresh, firm, vigorous step for a m an in his seventy-fourth year, is enough to m ake one believe in the possibility of Ponoe de Leon's fabled F ountain of Youth. C aptain Benson is not only a hero of the C ivil W ar, but a m an w orth con siderable property. He says he would p a rt w illingly w ith his interest in all his earthly possessions rather than be placed back in the debilitated oondition where he lingered for a score of years. “ I suppose,” said he, laughing, “ th a t w h at yon are after is an adver tisem ent for Pink Pills, but I w an t to say th a t I am very glad to give yon th is testim onial, as I am convinoed it w ill relieve a great deal of suffering, if it can become widely known. I am firm ly oonvinoed, after an experienoe of over fifty years w ith both patent m edicines and physicians, th a t if every fam ily oonld keep these P ink P ills in the boose they would never need a dootor. “ I have paid ont over | 1 ,000 for doo- toring w ith the best pyhsioians at Salem , but not a oent for m yself sinoe a year and a half ago. It was then th a t I first heard of P ink Pills. I got the first box a t a drug store, and had not m uch oonfldenoe in them w hen I began to take them. I took one box before I got m uch benefit, but by the m iddle of the second box the pain in m y breast began to disappear, and the rheum atism in my shoulder w ent away. The shortness of breath was alleviatod, and I began to sleep like an infant. For the first tim e in tw enty years I realized the luxury of sound sleep,and my system began to recuperate “ By the end of the th ird box it had taken aw ay all my rheum atism and stiffness in the muscles and joints, and I began to feel as nim ble as a boy, and could do as good a d a y ’s work as ever, h u t for my wounds.
