In one Of Harper's issues is given
o very fine illustration of Roberts
celebrated painting, known as "Doc
toring Old Time" It represents q
typical old-timer, with his bellows
blowing the dust from an ancient
clock, with it's cords and weights
carefully secured. One ofthese clocks
in this generation is appreciated only
as rare relic.
The suggestive name, "Doctoring
Old Time" brings to our mind an.
other version of the title, used fol
another purpose.-"Old Time Doc
toring."
We learn, througha reliable source
that one of the enterprising proprie.
tary medicine firms of the country
has been for years investigating tile
formulas and medical preparations
used in the beginning of this century,
and even before, with q view of as.
certaining why people in our great.
grandfather time enjoyed u health
,!nd physical vigor SO seldom
found in the present generation.
They now think they have SO.
cured the secret or secrets. They
find that the prevailing opinion that
then existed, that "Nature has a
remedy for every existing disorder, u
was true and acting under this be-
lief, our grandparents used the COM
mon herbs and plants. Continual
trespass upon the forest domain, has
made these herbs less abundant and
has driven them further from civiliz-
alton, until they haye been discard
ed, as remedial agents because of the
difficulty of obtaining them.
II. II. Warner, proprietor OF
Warmers safe cure and founder OF
the Warner observatory, Rochester,
n. Y, has been pressing investiga-
tions in this direction, into the I'M
nails of old family histories, until he
has secured some very valuable for
mulas, from which his firm is now
preparing medicines, to be sold by
all druggists.
sl They win, viii, We We learn learn, y se
tie of "Warner's Log Cabin rem
edies." Among these medicines will
be "snrsaparilla," for the blood
and liver, clog Cabin hops and
buchu remedy" for the stomach,
ETC., "Log Cabin cough and con-
sumption remedy" Log Cabin hair
tonic," "Log Cabin extract" for
internal and external use, and an
old valuable discovery for catarrll,
called "Log Cabin rose cream. /"
Among the list is also a clog Cabin
plaster" and u "Log Cabin liver
pill"
From thenumber of remedies, it will
be seen that they do not propose to
cure all diseases with one prepare
ton. 1t is believed by many that
with these + NEEDLES IL new era is to
dawn upon suffering humanity and
that the close Of the nineteenth cen
fury will sec these roots and herbs, as
compounded under the title of War
ner's Log Cabin remedies, as popular
as they were at it's beginning. Al
though they come in the form of pro-
prietary medicines, yet they will be
none the less welcome, for suffering
humanity has become tired ofmod-
ern doctoring and the public has
great confidence in any remedies put
up by the firm of which II. III. War
r,n1. ic tho honI 1Nhn v,,o,,Jo have
become suspicious of the effects of
doctoring with poisonous drugs.
Few realize the injurious effects fol
lowing tho prescriptions OF many
modern physicians. These effects of
poisonous drugs, already prominent,
will become more pronounced in COM
ing generations. Therefore we can
cordially wish the old-fnshioned new
remedies the best of success.
