AcLAIM TO HUMAN GRATITUDE.

AcLAIM TO HUMAN GRATITUDE.
Charlotte Corday, thesad-faced, tender
hearted peasant girl Of Normandy made
great history by one desperate act!
Sickened y.the saturnalia Of the French
revolution, and moved to desperation as
Robespierre and Marat were leading the
flower of France to the Ruillotine, she
determined that she would put an end
to Marat's bloody reign.
Marat had demanded two hundred
thousand victims for the guilotine!
He proposed to kill off the enemies of
the Revolution to make it perpetual
Horrible thought!
No wonder it fired the blood of this
patriotic peasant maid!
Gaining access to his closely guarded
quarters by subterfuge, she found him
giving written directions for further
slaughter!
He asked her the names of the inimical
deputies who had taken refuge in Caen.
She told him, and he wrote them down.
"Ihat is we'll! Before week is over
they shall all be brought to the
guillotine.''
1T these words, Charlotte drew from
her bosom the knife, and plunged it with
supernatural force up to the hilt in the
heart Of Marat.
ttCome to me, my dear friend, come
to me-" cried Marat, and expired under
the blow!
In the Corcoran gallery at Washington
is q famous painting of Charlotte, repre-
sented as behind the prison bars the day
before her execution.
It is thrilling, sad picture, full of
sorrow for her suffering country, and of
unconquerable hate for her country's
enemies.
What lesson in this tragic story! Two
hundred, nay: five hY2dEs,s, !, 5,S;;esnG
peeS's S6nld Marat have sacrificed to
his unholy passion of power!
Methods are quite as murderous and
inexorable as men, and they number their
v'.t;ms by the millions.
+, page of history is full OF murders
=, authority and by mistaken ideas!
In the practice Of medicine alone how
many hundreds Of millions have been
allowed to die and as many more killed
by unjustifiable bigotry and by bungling!
But the age is lettering. Men and
methods are improving. A few years ago
it was worth ones professional life to
advise or permit the ,,se Of a proprietary
medicine. To-day there are not two
physicians in any town in this country
who do not regularly prescribe some form
Of proprietary remedy!
II. H. Warner, famed all over the3world
as the discoverer of Warmers safe cure,
began hunting up the old remedies Of
the Log Cabin days; after long and
patient research he succeeded in secur-
ing some of the most valuable, among
family records, and called them Warmers
Log Cabin remedies-the simple prepara-
tions of roots, leaves, balsams and herbs
which were the successful standbys of
our grandmothers. These simple, old
fashioned sarsaparilla, hops and buchu,
cough and consumption and other rem
edies have struck popular chord and
are in extraordinary demand all over
the land. They are not the untired and
imaginary remedies of some dabster
chemist intent on making money, but
the long-songht principles Of the healing
art which for generations kept our ances-
tors in perfect health, put forth for the
good of humanity by one who is known
all over the world as philanthropist-
a lover of his fellow man,-w,,ose
name is a guarantee of the highest
standard Of excellence.
The preparations are OF decided and
known influence over disease, and as in
the hands of our grandmothers they
raised up the sick, cured the lame, and
bound up the wounds cf death, SO in
their new form but olden power as Log
Cabin remedies, they are sure to prove
the "healing of the nations"
Corday did the world an incalculable
service in Kidding France Of the bigoted
and murderous Marat, just as this man
is doing humanity service by re-intro-
ducing to the world the simpler and bet
ter methods of our ancestors.
