How Seth Warner Won > Wifi and Became I'd.
Colonel Seth Warner, of Vermont,
the famous hero of the Reyplution-
airy war, was a leading fighter for
the Hampshire grants.
These titles were disputed by the
State Of New York, and it's authori-
ties obtained an edict of the King of
England in their favor. The settlers
were stung by the supposed injustice.
This state of things brought Colonel
Seth Warner to the front. With Ethan
Allen and others he actively opposed
every effort of the New York state
authorities to enforce possession,
and finally he, with Allen and others,
were outlawed and q price put on
their headsl
To circumvent New York, it was
necessary that some n should go
into that state and gain required
information. Col. Warner, assum-
ing for safety the name of "Dr. How
ard," undertook this perilous and
romantic journey.
While on his way home he stopped
Mt a country inn, where an old gen.
tleman and daughter were storm
bound. The father fell i'll and the
daughter called upon Col. Warner,
who, with his wide knowledge of
simple remedies, successfully treated
the "old man." and he finally won
this devoted woman for q wife.
Such incidents were not uncommon
in those years. When the doctor
was not easily reached, months of
sickness, and even life were often
saved by some unprofessional friend
versed in the use of simple herbs and
roots. The health of early settlers
and their powers Of endurance con-
vince us that such medicines did on
Iy good and left no poison in the
blood to work as much injury to the
system as would the disease itself.
In time of peace the colonel was in
constant demand for his knowledge
of simple remedies and their power
over disease. But it was left to an
other of his name of the present age
to give to the public what was then
used with such positive success.
Warnerfo fol over a hundred years has
shared with Ethan Allen the admira-
ton of the Americanpeople.
Colonel Seth Warner belongs to a
family OF wide distinction; no less
than eight members thereof won
fame in the regular practice of medi-
cine. ~
Looking to the adoption by the
people of this generation of the
old time simple remedies, his direct
descendant, Fl. H. Warner, the we'll
known proprietor of Warmers safe
cure, for many years has been ex-
~perimenting with old time roots
and herbs formul@ and, his
search having been finally rewarded
with success, he gives the world
the result. These recipes and for
mula in other days accomplished
great things because they were pure
ly vegetable and combined simply so
as to cure the disease indicated, with
out injury to the system. In har-
mony with their old time character,
We learn that he proposes to call
them Warmers Log Cabin remedies,
using as a trademark an old-fash-
Toned American log cabin: We un-
derstand that he intends to put forth
a 'sarsaparilla," for the blood, the
sa%rsaparilla itself being but one of a
number of simple and effective ele-
ments; LOG Cabin hops and buchu,"
a general stomach tonic and invig-
orator: "Log Cabin cough and con-
sumption remedy" warmers Log
Cabin hair tonic;' a preparation for
that universal disease catarrh, called
"Log Cabin rose cream;'' "Warner's
Log Cabin plasters;" and "Warner's
Log Cabin liver pills." which are to
be used in connection with the other
remedies, or Independently as re-
required.
Warmers safe remedies are already
standards of the most pronounced
scientific value in all parts of the
world, and we have no doubt the
Log Cabin remedies, for the diseases
they are intended to cure, will be of
equal merit, for Mr.. Warner has the
reputation of connecting his name
with no preparation that is not mer-
itorious.
