"DOCTORING OLD TIME"
4 Striking Pieture-A Revival of Old
Time Sim plicities.

In one of Harper's issues is given very
fine illustration or Roberts celebrated paint
ing, known Doctoring Old Time" Ii
represents a typical old-timer with his bel
lows blowing the dust from an ancient
clock, with its cords and weights carefully
.ccured One of these clocks in this genera
ZION is appreciated only rare relic.
The suggestive name, Doctoring Old
time, brings to our mind another version
Of the title, used for another purpose
Old Time Doctoring."
We learn, through a reliable source that
one of the enterprising proprietary medi-
enc firms of the country has been for years
investigating the formulas and medical
preparations used in the beginning Of this
century, and even before, with view of as
certaining why people in our great-grand
fathers time enjoyed health and physical
Nlgor so seldom found in the present geneT-
alton. They now think they have secured
the secret or secrets. They find that the
prevailing opinion that then existed, that
Nature has a remedy for every existing
disorder" was true, and acting under this
Lellef, our grandparents used the common
herbs and plants. Continual treSpass upon
the forest domain has made these herbs less
abundant and has driven them further from
civilization, until they have been discarded
rs rem ed4al agents because Of the difficulty
of obtaining them.
II. II. W hIHtT, proprietor 81 wa
safe cure and founder OF the Warner OBJ
Seryatory Rochester, \. y, has been press
ing Investigations in this direction, into the
annals Of old family histories, until he has
secured some very valuable formulas, from
which his firm is now preparing medicines,
to be sold by all druggists.
They will, we learn be known under the
general title of . Warmers Log Cabin Rem
cdieS. Among these medicines viii be
sarsaparila" for the blood ami liver
Log Cabin hops and buchu remedy" for
the stomach, etc, Log Cabin cough and
consumption remedy, " Log Cabin hair
tonic" " Log Cabin extract, for internal
and external use and an old valuable dis
Coyery for Catarrh, called g Log Cabin rose
cream Among the list is also a Log
cabin plaster" and Log Cabin liver
pill"
From the number OF remedies, it will be
seen that they do not propose to cure all
diseases with one preparation. 1t Is be-
licved by many that with these remedies a
new era is 10 dawn upon suffering human
ity and that the close of the nineteenth
century will see these loots and herbs, as
compounded under the title of Warmers
Log Cabin remedies, rs popular as they
were ut its beginning. Although they
come in the form OF proprietary medicines,
yet they Will be none the less welcome, for
suffering humanity has become tired of
modern doctoring and the public has great
confidence in any remedies put up by the
firm of which II. II. Warner is the head.
The people have become suspicious of the
effects of doctoring with poisonous drugs.
Few realize the injurious effects following
the prescriptions of many modern physi-
clans. These effects Of poisonous drugs,
already prominent, will become more pro-.
nounced in coming generations. Therefore
we can cordially wish the Old-tashioned new
remedies the best OF success.
