OUR ANCESTORS NERVE.
The Secret of Their Unusual Yfgor Ex-
planned and How It Can Re
Acquired.

There was something about the sturdy
vigor of former generations that
challenges the admiration of every man,
woman and child. They were no epicures
those ancient fathers. They lived SIM
ply, and successfully met and overcome
difficulties that would have discouraged
this age and generation. The rig0rs of the
frontier were supplemented by the savages;
wild beasts threatened their enterprise and
poverty was common companion. Yet
they brave1y encountered and resisted all
those things and laid the foundations of
land whose blessings we now enjoy. Their
constitutions were strong; their health un-
surpassed and yet they were forced to ex.
pose themselves continually. There GER
tainly must have been some good and ade-
quate cause for all this and for. the physical
superiority of that age over the present.
1t is well known to every one conversant
with the history of that time that certain
home compounds of Strengthening quail
ties were used almost universally by those
pioneers. The malarial evils and ex-
posures to which they were subjected
necessitated this. When their bodies
become chilled by cold or debilitated by
the damp mistS of new country they
were forced to counterfeit it by the use of
antdoteSs Medicines were few in those

the preparations above referred to. From
among the number, all of which were
compounded upon the same general prin-
ciple, one was found to be more efficient,
and hence far more popular than all the
rest. 1t was well known through the Mid
die and Western States, and was acknowl-
edged as the best preparation for mala-
rial disorders and general debility then
known. The recipe tor compromising this
valuable article was handed down from
one family and generation to another,
was known to the Harrison family and is
used as the basis and general formula for
the present Tippecanoe," the name be-
ing suggested by the battle in which Cen
eral Harrison was engaged. The manu-
facturers have thoroughly investigated
this subject in it's minuEest details, and
are certain that for mal-aSsimilation of
food, dyspepsia, tired feelings, general de-
bility, proStrations, malaIial disorders
and humors in the blood, nothing can ex-
coed in value " Tippecauoe," which was
the medicine of our foretathers and seems
destined to be the most popular prepara-
ton of the day.
"Tippecanoe" is prepared and given to
the public by Messrs. H. II. Warner & Co.,
of Rochester, n. Y, proprietors of the IA
nous Warmers Safe Cure, which is now
the most extensively used of any American
medicine. The well known standing of
this house is a sufficient guarantee of the
purity and power of this preparation which
seeks to Danish one of the greatest banes Of
the nineteenth century -mal-assimilation
of food. Any one who experiences trouble
of digestion; who feels less vigcr than for
merly; whose system has unquestionably
"run down" and who realizes the necessi-
ty of some strengthening tonic can not af-

If the farmer finds that his threshing ma.
chine does not separate the grain from the
straw he realizes that something is wrong
and tries to repair the machine. When the
food does not sustain the life; when it fails
to make blood; when it causes the energy
to depart and ambition to die, it is a GER
tain sign that something is wrong and that
the human machine needs repairing. Il is
not a question of choice; it is a matter of
duty. You must attend to your health or
your sickness and nothing will sooner over
come these evils than "Tippecanoe," the
medicine of the past, safe guard for the
present and guarantee of health for the
future,
