A HUNDRED YEARS A HERO.
HOW SETH WARMER WON A WIFE
AND BECAME FAMOUS.

Colonel Seth Warner, of Vermont
the famous hero of the Revolutionary
war was leading fighter for the
Hampshire grants.
These titles were disputed by the
State of New York, and its 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 price put on their
heads,
To circumvent New York, it was
necessary that some one should go in
to that state and gain required infor-
nation. Col. Warner, assuming for
safety the name of CDR. Howard, y
undertook this perilious and romantic
journey.
While on his way home he stopped
at country inn, where an old gentle
man and daughter were orm-bound.
The father felt i'll and the daughter
called upon Col. Warner, who, with
his wide knowledge of simple reme-
dies, successfully treated the "old
man." and he finally won this devoted
woman for 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 pow
ers Of indurance convince us that such
medicines did only good and left no
poison in the blood to work as much
injury to the system as would the dis
ease 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 anoth-
er of his name of the present age to
give to the public what was then used
with such positive success.
Warner for over hundred years has
shared with Ethan Allen the admira-
tion Of the American people.
Colonel Seth warner belongs to
family Of wide distinction no less
than eight members thereof won fame
in the regulor practice of medicine.
Looking to the adoption Of the peo-
pie of this generation of the old time
simple remedies, his direct descedant,
II. FL. Warner, the .well-knoWn pro-
prietor of Warmers safe cure, for
many years has been experimenting
with old time roots and herbs formul@
and, his search having been finally re-
warded with success, he gives the
world the result. These recipes and
formul@ in other days accomplished
great things because they were purely
vegetable and combined simply so as
to cure the disease indicated, without |
injury to the system. In harmony
with their old time character. we learn
that he proposes to call them Warmers |
Log Cabin remedies, using as a trade
mark an old-fashioned American log |
cabin. We understand that he in
tends to put forth a sarsaparilla. ;,
for the blood, the sarsaparilla itself |
being but one of a number of SIM
pie and effective elements; "Log
Cabin hops and buchu,' ageneral
stomach tonic and invigorator;
" Log Cabin cough and consump-
ton remedy" Warmers Log
Cabin hair tonic !" a preparation
for that universal disease catarrh, cal
led Log Cabin rose cream y War
ner's Log Cabin plasters and !" War
ner's Log Cabin liver Pills, :" which are
TO be used in connection with the other
remedies, OF independently as requir-
ed. /
Warmers safe remedies are already
standards of the most scientific value
IN all parts OF the world, and we have
40 doubt the Log Cabin remedies, for
The diseases they are intended to cure,
will be of equal merit, for Mr.. War
1er has the reputation of connecting
his name with no preparation that is
not meritorious.
