THROUGH THE FOREST.
The Old and Young Danced All Night-Our
Hardy Ancestors,



Old men live in the past
Perhaps 1t would be better for the Young
men of the present. if they lived a little hit
more in the past, and drew less on the fu-
ture.
The log cabins of primitive times would
seem very cherries habitations to the people
who live in the finely constructed, furnace
heated mansions of tH-day. But our grand
parents took great deal of comfort in these
rude homes.
They were rugged and healthy The men
had stalwart and hardy frames and the
women were free from the modern ailments
that make the sex of to-day practically help
less slaves to hired foreign help.
Whitehaired grand slreS frequently took
their life partners and on horseback rode
a score of miles through the forest to enjoy
the lively pleasures of afrontier ball, danced
till daylight, rode home again in the early
morning, then put in good days work.
Middle aged folks of to-day couldn't stand
that sort of a racket.
TO these mud-9hinked log cabins doctors
visits were a rarity. The inhabitants lived
to a rugged and green old age.
Sometimes these log cabin old-timers were
taken i'll. They were not proof against all
the exposures to which they were subjected.
They found the effective remedies for these
common ailments in the roots and herbs
which grew in the neighboring forests and
fields. They had learned that nature has
cure for every i'll. These potent remedies
off diseases and left no poison in the system.
The unpleasant feature of modern practice
with mineral medicines is the in furious after
effec- on the system. May not modern
physical degeneracy be due to this featured
A tll saturated system is not in q
natural. consequently not in healthy, state.
If any of the main organs are clogged with
traces of the mineral pOisons used to drive
out particular disease, the whole machinery
Of life is deranged and early decay of natural
powers is the inevitable result.
There can be no question that remedies
from the laboratory of nature are the best
If they are as efficacious, they have the adj
vantage of leaUing no after sting.
Their efficacy, if properly compounded, and
the proper remedy applied to the proper dis.
case, will not be doubted. The experience of
ages proves it.
Their disuse has come about principally
throug il the rapid congregation of people in
cities and villages, rendering these natural
remedies difficult to obtain. Progressive
business enterprise has lately led to putting
these old time remedies within reach Of ali
classes.
The proprietors of Warmers safe remedies.
in the faith that the people of to-day would
be benefited by using the simple remedies of
log cabin days, have caused investigation to
be made and secured the formulas Of a mum
Der of those which long and successful use
had proved to be most valuable.

general title Of Warmers Log Cabin Rene
