AHuNpREp YEARS HERO.
How Seth Warner Won Wife aEt
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 authori-
ties obtained an edict OF The King o.
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
optlawed and a price put on their
headsl
To cIrcumvent New York. it was
necessary that some one should go into
that state and gain required informa-
ton Col Warner. assuming for
safety the name of ''Dr. Howard, I"
undertook this perilous and romantic
journey.
While on his way home he stopped
NJ 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 a 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
uuprofessional friend versed in the use
of simple herbs and roots. The health
of early settlers and their powers of
endurance convince US that such medi-
ciRes did only good and left no poison
IN the blood to work as much injury TO
the system as would the disease itself.
In time of peace the colonel was in
constant demand for his knowledge OF
simple remedies and their power oveI
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 a hundred years
has shared with Ethan Allen the ad-
miration 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 10 the adoption by the
people of this generation OF the old time
simple remedies. his direct descedant,
ii. II. Warner, the well-known proprle.
tor of Warrer's safe cure, for many
years has been experimenting with old
time roots and herbs formule 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
combined simply SO as TO cure the dis.
ease indicated, without injury TO the
system. In harmony with their old
time character, We learn that he pro-
poses to call them Warmers Log Cabin
remedies, using as a trademark an old
fashioned American log cabin. We
understand that he intends 10 pIt forth
a ''sarsaparilla," for the blood, the
sarsaparilla itself being but one of
number of simple and effective ele-
ments; LOG Cabin hops and buchu,"
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 catarTh, called LOG
Cabin rose cream" Warmers Log
Cabin plasters;" and "Warner's Log
Cabin liver pills. F." 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
entldc 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
connecting his name with no prepara-
ton that IS not meritorious.
