tating or threatening the country in every di-
rectlon, are justly cause for apprehension.
No matter whether they come suddenly or bv
SOW degrees they are, in either case great
evil and much to be dreaded, aud yet Amer
lca VIII always be troubled by these spring
overliows Probably one of the most disas-
trous that was ever known, occurred in
Rochester, N, Y, about twenty years ago.
The Genesee river, just above the falls where
Sam Patch male his final and fatal leap, be-
came completely b.ockaded by ice, forming
an impossible dam, and the water coming
down the Genesee river overlooked the prin,
elpal portion of the city OF Rochester
This catastrophe would have been re-
reated the present year had not the en-
ergy aud foresight Of the city authorities
pre- gented it. The writer hap ened TO be in
Rochester at that time, and was greatly in
terested in the manner in which this great
catastrophe was averted. Every few mo-
ments roar like the peals of thunder or the
booming OF cannon would be heard, and in
order TO see this ice blasting process, the
writer went to the top Of tine new Warner
building, which overlooks the Genesee river.
From here he was not only enabled to see the
process uninterruptedly, but also the mag
mficent building which has just been com
building devoted to business and manufac-
turing purposes in America. beng entirely
hreproof, eight stories high, and containing
over four and a quarter acres of flooring.
Mr. Warner treated your correspondent very
courteously, ard in the course of the CONVEX
saton said:
eve are doing tremendous business and
are far behind in our orders. This is the sea-
son OF the year when people, no matter how
strong their constitution may be, feel more
or less, the pain and indisposition, the heal
aches, colds, neuralgia, rheumatism, dull
pains, sore threats, coughs-all the l,00l ills
that flesh Is heir to come this time of the
year, If at all. 1t is natural. therefore, that
we should be very busy. This is specially
true of our Safe Rheumatic Cure, and it is
crowding us very sharply for a new
remedy"
singular, but l had forgotten that you
do not advertise to cure all diseases from one
bottle, as is done generally by many other
medicine men, but l supposed Warmers Safe
Cure was for the cure of rheumatism
"And SO it has been until cur remedy
which was especially for rheumatism and
neuralgia, was introduced. We have been
three years Terfecting this new remedy.
Study first taught US there were certain
powerful elements in Warmers Safe cure,
better known as Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure that male wonderful cures In
our investigation, we learned of O remark
able cure at celebrated springs, and put ex-
perts to investigate and found that the
springs did not contain any valuable prop
critics, but the course of treatment that was
being given there was performing all the
benefit By carefully combining the active
principles of this remedy with our Safe cure.
we have produced our Safe Rheumatic Cure,
and the cures it is effecting are simply won
derful and do not doubt it will become as
popular as our Safe Cure"
"You seem to talk freely in regard to your
remedies and appear to have no secrets, Mr.
Warner
"None whatever. The physician with his
hundred calls and one hundred diseases, is
necessarily compelled to guess at great
deal. We are enabled to follow up and per-
feet, while physicians can only experiment
with their hundred patients and hundred dis
eases. With the ordinary physician, the code
binds him down, so that if he makes dis
covery, he is bound to give it to the other
physic ans, which, of course, discourages in
vestigation, to great extent. This is why
the great discoveries in medical science Of
late years have been made by chemists and
scientists and not by physicians, and it in
measure accounts for the great value of our
remedies, also for the remarkable success of
all those doctors who make speciality Of one
or two diseases"
ana you ma thdV you are curing as great
a number of people as ever before ~
eyes, a far greater number. We never
sold so much of our medicine as now and
never knew of so many remarkable curesn
The writer departe after the above inter-
view, but was greatly impressed, not only by
the sincerity of Mr.. Warner, but by the vast
ness of all he saw. Mr. Warmers medicines
are used throughout the entire length and
breadth OF the land, and we doubt not the re-
suit they are effecting are really as wonder
full as they are related to be.
