THROUGH THE FOREST.
The old and Young Danced All Night
 Our Hardy Ancestors.

 The log cabins of primitive times would seem very rheerless habitations to the furance heated mansions of to-day. But our grandparents took great deal of comfort iii 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 helpless slaves to hired for eign help. ot1ie~ci
 White-haired grand-sires frequently took their life partners and on horseback rode score of miles through the forests to enjoy the lively pleasures of frontier ball. danced till daylight, rode home aga,n in the early morning, then put in good days work.
 Middle-aged folks of to-day couldn't stand that sort of racket.
 To these mud-chinked log cabins doctors' visits were rarity. The in- habitants lived to 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 neigbboring forests and fields. They had learned that nature has cure for every ill. These potent remedies assisted their sturdy frames to quickly throw off disease and lett no poison in the system.
 The unpleasant feature of modern practice with mineral medicines is the injurious after elfec on the system. May not modern physical degeneracy be due to this feature?
 A drug-salurated system is not in natural, consequently not in a healthy, state. If any of the main organs are cloeged with traces of the mineral poisons used to drive out particular disease, the whole machinery of life is deranged and early decayof 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 advantage of kauing no after sting.
 Their efficacy, if properly compounded, and the proper remedy applied to the proper disease, will not be doubted. The experience of ages proves it. Their disuse has come about principally through 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 re- med es within reach of all classes.
 The proprietorsH 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 investigations to be male and secured the formulas of number of those which long and successful use had proved to he most valuable.
