Our Hardy Ancestors.
Old men live in the past.
Perhaps it would be better for the young
men of the present, If they lived little bit
more in the past, and drew. less on the fut-
ure.
The log cabins of primitive times would
seem very cheerless habitations to the
people who live in the finely constructed,
furnace heated mansions of to-day. But our
grandparents took great deal OF comfort
in 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 help
less slaves 20 hired foreign help
Whte-haired grand-sires frequently took
their life-partners and on horseback rode q
score of miles through the forests to enjoy
the lively pleasures Of frontier ball,
danced till daylight, rode home again 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 inhabitants 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 subject
ed. They found the effective remedies for
| these common ailments in the roots and
herbs which grew in the neighboring for
ests and fields. They had learned that nat
| ure has cure for every ill. These potent
| remedies assisted their sturdy frames to
quickly throw off disease and left no poison
in the system.
The unpleasant feature Of modern prac-
tice with mineral medicines is the injurious
after effect on the system. May not mod
ern physical degeneracy be due to this feat

A drug-saturated system is not in a nat
ural, consequently not in a healthy, state
If any of the main organs are clogged with
traces of tho mineral poisons used to drive
out particular disease, the whole machin
cry of life is deranged and early decay Of
natural powe g 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 ad
vantage of leaOiig no after sting.
Their efficacy, if properly compounded
and the proper remedy applied to the proper
disease, will not be doubted. The expert
ence of ages proves it.
Their disuse has come about principally
through the rapid congregation Of people il
cities and villages, rendering these natnra
remedies difficult to obtain. Progressive
business enterprise has lately led to putting
these old time remedies within reach of al
classes.
The proprietors of Warmers safe rene
dies, in the faith that the people of to-da.
would be benefited by using the simpl
remedies of log cabin days, have caused in
vestigations to be made and secured tn
formulas Of apumber of those which lonl
and successful use had proved to be mos
valuable.

general title of "Warner's Log Cabin Rem
edies." Among these medicines will be
