"REMINISCENCES OF ROCHESTER,,

The Fails Of the tscucsee and sam Pntch's
md its Great NISrnittmae. Iit business ih""'"'
Inc present floods, which are either devas-
tat1ng or threataning 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 10 be dreaded, and yet Amer
lea will always be troubled by these spring
overhows 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 made his final and fatal leap, be-
CAME completely blockaded by ice, forming
an impossible dam, and the water coming
down the Genesee river overllowed the
principal portion of the city. of Rochester,
Ihls catastrophe would have been repeated
the present year had not the energy and fore
sight of the city authorities prevented it.
The writer happened to be in Rochester at
that time, and was greatly interested in the
manner in which this great catastrophe was
averted. Every few moments 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 the new Warner
building, which overlooks the Genesee river
From here he was not only enabled TO see the
process uninterruptedly, but also the magnih-
cent building which has just been completed
This is unQuestionahly the finest building de-
ses in America, being entirely fireproof, eight
stories high, and containing over four and a
quarter acres of flooring. Mr.. Warner treated
your correspondent very courteously, and in
the course of the conversation said:
We are doing a 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, moro
or less, the pain and indisposition, the head
aches, colds, neuralgia, rheumatism, dull
palms, sore throats, coughs-all the 1,001 ills
that flesh is heir to come this time of the
year, if at oil. 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 new
remedyp
singular, but had forgotten that you do
not advertise to cure all diseases from one
bottle, as is done generally by many other
medicine men, but | supposed Warmers Safe
Cure was for the cure of rheumatism
!" And so it has been until our remedy
which was especially for rheumatism and
neuralgia, was introduced. We have been
three years perfecting 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 made wonderful cures in
chronic and acute rheumatism, but during
our investigation, we learned of a remarka-
bic cure at a celebrated springs, and put eX-
perts to investigate and found that the
springs did not contain any valuable proper
ties, but the course of treatment that was
being given there was performing all the ben
eft. By carefully combining the active prin-
ciples of this remedy with our Safe cure we
have produced our Safe Rheumatic Cure, and
the cures it is etfecting are simply wonderful,
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 perfect,
while physicians can only experiment with
! their hundred diseases. With the ordinary
physician, the code binds him down, so that
if he makes discovery, he is bound to give it
to the other physicians, which, of course, dis
courageS 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 notify physicians,
and 1t in a measure accounts for the great
value of our remedies, also for the remarka-
BILE success of all those doctors who make a
speciality of one or two diseases
And you find that you are curing as great
number of people as ever beforep
"Yes, a far greater number. We never
sold so much of our medicine as now and
never knew of SO many remarkable cures.n
The writer departed 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
result they are effecting are really as wonder
full as they are related to be.
