The present floods, which are either
devastating or threatening the country
in every direction, are justly cause for
apprehension. No matter whether they
come suddenly or by slow degrees, they
are, in either case. great evil and
much to be dreaded. and yet America
will always be troubled by these spring
overfows. Probably one of the most
disastrous that was ever known, oc-
ty years ago. The Genesee river, just
his final and fatal leap, became COM
passable dam, and the water coming
down the Genesee river overfowed the
principal portion of the city of Roches-
ter. The catastrophe would have been
repeated the present year had not the
energy and foresight of the city au-
thorities prevented it. The writer hap
pened to be in Rochester at that time
and was greatly interested in the man.
ner in which this great catastrophe was
averted. Every few moments, roar
like the peals Of thunder or the boom

order to see this ice-blasting process.
the writer went to the top of the new
Warner building which overlooks the
Genesee river. From here he was not
only enabled to see the process uninter-
ruptedly, but also the magnificent
building which has just been completed.
This is unquestionably the finest build
ing devoted to business and manufac-
turing purposes in America, being en-
tirely fireproof, eight stories high, and
containing over four and a quarter
acres of flooring. Mr.. Warner treated
your correspondent very courteouslv,
and in course of the conversation said:
I've are doing a tremendous busi-
ness and are far behind in our orders.
| This is the season of the year when
people, no matter how strong their
constitution may be, feel, more or less,
the pain and indisposition, the head
aches, colds, neuralgia, rheumatism,
dull pains, sore throats, coughs-all
the l,0Ol ills that flesh is heir to come
this time of the year, if at all. 1t is ma
tural, therefore, that we should be very
busy. This is perfectly true of our
Safe Rheumatic Cure, and it is crowd
ing us very sharply for new RENE
dy."
singular, but had forgotten that
you do not advertise ty cure all dis
eases from one bottle, as is done gen.
orally by many other medicine men,
but supposed Warmers Safe Cure was
| for the cure of rheumatism"
"And SO it has been until our reme-
dy, which was especially for rheuma-
tism and neuralgia, was introduced.
We have been three years perfecting
this new remedy. Study first taught
us there were certain powerful ele-
ments in Warmers Safe Cure, better
known as Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure, that made wonderful cures
in chronic and acute rheumatism. but
during our investigation, we learned of
\ remarkable cure at celebrated
springs. and put experts to investigate
and found that the springs did not con-
tain any valuable properties, but the
course of treatment that was being Civ
en- there was performing all the benefit.
BY carefully combining the active prin-
ciples of this remedy with our Safe
cure. we have produced our Safe Rheu-
matte Cure. and the cures it is effecting
are simply wonderful, and l 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 hum
dred diseases. is necessarily compelled
TO guess at a great deal. We are ena-
bled to follow up and perfect, while
physicians can only experiment with
their hundred patients and hundred
diseases. With the ordinary physician,
the code b,nus him down, SO that if he
makes n discovery, he is bound to give
it to to the other physicians, which, of
course, discourages investigation. to a
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 a measure accounts for the great
value of our remedies, also for the re-
markable success of all those doctors
who make specially of one or two dis
eases"
"And you find that you are curing as
great number of people as ever be-
forep''
"Yes, far greater number. We
never sold so much of cur medicine as
now and never knew Of so many re-
markable cures"
The writer departed after the above
interview, but was greatly impressed,
not only by the sincerity of MIR. Warner,
