A HUNDRED YEARS A HERol
How Seth Warner Won Wife and
Became Famous,

Became Famous.
Colonel Seth Warner, of Vermont,
the famous hero of the Revolutionary
war, was a leading fighter for the
Hampshire grants.
These titles were disputed by the
State of New York, and its authorities
obtained an edict of the King of Eng
land in their favor. The settlers were
stung by the supposed injustice. This
state of thing brought Colonel Seth
Warner to the front. With Ethan
Allen and others he actively opposed
every effort of the New York state au-
thOrities to enforce possession, and fin.
ally 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 into
that state and gain required informa-
ton. Col. Warner, assuming for SAT-
ETY. the name Of "Dr. Howard" under
took this perilous and romantic jour
ney.
While on his way home he stopped
at country inn, where an old gentle
man 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 wife.
ouch 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 yersed in the use
of simple herbs and roots. The health
of early settlers and their powers of en-
durance convince us that such medici-
mes did only good and left no posion in
the blood to work as much Injury to
the system as would the diiease 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 another 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-
ton of the American people.
Colonel Seth Warner belongs to a
family of wide distinction; no less than
eight members thereof won fame In the
regular practice of medicine.
Looking to the adoption by the PEG
pie of this generation of the old time
simple remedies, his direct defendant
H. H. Warner, the well-known prop
rietor of Warmers safe cure. for many
years has been experimenting with old
time roots and herbs formulse and, his
search having been finally rewarded
with success, he gives the world the
result. These recipes and formula in
other days accomplished great things
because they were purely vegetable and
combine simply SO as to cure the disc
ase indicated. without injury to the
system. In harmony with their old
time character, we learn that he prop
oses to call them Warmers Log Cabin
remedies, using as Trademarks an old
fashioned American log cabin. We
understand that he intends to put forth
"sarsaparilla itself being but one of a
number of simple and effective ele-
ments. 'Log Cabin hops and buchu,"
a general stomach tonic and invigora-
tor LOG Cabin cough and consump-
ton remedy" warmers Log Cabin
hair tonic;;"a preparation for that uni
versal disease oatarrh, called LOG
Cabin rose cream" Warmers Log
Cabin liver pills." which are to be used
in connection with the other remedies,
or independently as required.
Warmers Safe remedies are already
standards of the most pronounced sci
entifie value in all parts of the world,
and we have no doubt the Log Cabin
remedies, for the diseases they are in
tended to cure, will be of equal merit,
for Mr.. Warner has the reputation of
his name with no prepare
ton that is not meritorious.
