one iii these days would counterfeit
a Confederate bond or note.
People who commit fraud always
do it by Stimulating the highest virtue !;
by preyiDg on the cleanest repu-
tation, by employing the fair name
OF virtue with which to give respect
ability to vice.
Let us explain: Seven or eight
years ago, so we have been informed
many times in public prints, New
York State gentleman was pro-
nounced, as many millions have
been pronounced before, incurably
sick of an extreme disorder. By
suggestions which he believed were
providential, he was led to the use of
preparation which had been for
several years employed by a select
few physicians in New York City and
one or two other prominent places.
The result was that he was cured, he
whom doctors without number, and
of conceded ability, said was incur
able. Having secured possession Of
the formula, absolutely and irFerO-
cdbIy, he determined to devote por-
ton of his accumulated wealth to the
manufacture and sale of this remedy
for the benefit of the many who suf
fer as he suffered, in apparent hope
lessness. In less than three years,
so tremendous became the demand
for this remedy, and so exalted the
reputation, that he was obliged for
his purposes to erect laboratory and
warehouse containing four and a
quarter acres of flooring, and filled
with the most approved chemical and
manufacturing devices. Probably
there never was remedy that has
won such a meritorious name, such
extraordinary sales, and has accom-
plished so much good for the race.
Unprincipled parties, tCho flourish
only upon the ruins of others, saw in
this reputation and sale an oppOr-
tunity to reap a golden harvest mot
iegitinately, not honorabiy), for
which purpose they have made i'm
itations and substitutions of it in
every section of the country, and
many druggists, who can make a
larger profit on these imitation goods,
often compromise their honor by
forcing a sale upon the unposted Gus
toner.
Yes. undoubtedly the manufact-
urers could we'll afford to ignore such
instances Of, fraud so far as the effect
upon themselves is concerned, for their
remedies have a constant and unre-
hitting sale, but they feel it to be
their duty to a00rR the public against
such limitations and substitutiOns,
non-secret and otherwise. The indi-
vidual who buys them, and the pub
lie who countenances their sale,
alone suffer in mind, body, and es
tate therefor.
The authors of some of these fraud
ulent practices have been prosecuted
and sent to prison for their crimes,
but there is another class who claim
to know the formula of this remedy,
and one Sunday-school journal, we
are told, has prostituted its high and
holy calling so far as to advertise
that for twenty-five cents it will send
all new subscribers a transcript of
the Warner formula This formula,
by the way, must be a wonderfully
Kaleidoscope affair, for there IS
hardly month passes when some
paper is not issued which pretends
to give the only correct formula
The manufacturers inform US that
they would be perfectly willing that
the public should know what the
true formula of Warmers Safe Cure
is (none that have been published
are anything like it,, but even If
every IN. n, woman, and child in the
United States were as familiar with
this formula as with their A B C's
they could not compound the remedy. |
The method of manufacture is a Sc
cret. 1t is impossible to obtain the
results that are brought by this |
remedy if one does not have the per
feet skill acquired only by years OF |
practice for compromising and assimi-
lating the simple elements which
enter into its composition.
The learned DR.. Foster, the hon.
ored head of Clifton Springs SAM
tarium, once said that having roughly
analvzed this remedy he recognized
that the elements that compose 1t
we're simple, but he attributed the
secret of its power to the method OF
its compromising, and this method
no one knows except the manufact-
urers, and no one can acquire it.
Our advice to our readers, there
fore. cannot be too strongly empha-
sized. As you would prefer virtue to /
vice, gold to dross, physical hapPl-
ness to physical misery, shun the
imit&tor and refuse thereby to lend
your aid financially to those who
sesk to get, by trading upon another's
and honesty, a sale for
wares and goods which on their
merits are fit only to be rejected as
r. vay1ast raf1se. You can neither |
