THROUGH THE FOREST.
The Old an& Young Danced All Night-O
Hardy Ancestors.

Ay
Old men live in the Past
Perhaps it would be better for the young
men of the present, if they lived a little bit
more in the past, and drew less on the fu,
ture.
The log cabins Of primitive times would
seem very cherries habitations to the people
Eho live in the finely constructed, furnace
heated mansions of ti-day. But our grand
parents took a great deal OF comfort in these
| rude homes.
They were rugged and healthy. The m n
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 to hired foreign help.
White-haired grand-sires frequently took
thelr life partners and on horseback rode
a score-p of miles through the forest to enjoy
the lively pleasures of a frontier ball, danced
till daylight, rode home again in the early
morning, then put ina goodday's work.
Middle aged folks of to-day couldn't stand
that sort of a racket.
To these mud-ohinked log cabins doctors
visits were a rarity. The Inhabitants lived
to a 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 subjected.
They found the effective remedies for the+,
Common ailments in the roots n herbs
which graw in tle ~neighburing forests and
fields. They had learned that nature has a
cure for every ill. These potent remedies
assisted their sturdy framest to quickly throw
off diseases and left no poison in the system.
The unpleasant feature of modern practice
with mineral raedicii e5 is the injurious after
effect on the system. Mas noG modern
physical degeneracy be due to this feature?
A drug saturated system is not in a
natural, consequently not in a healthy, state.

| of life is deranged and early decay of natural
| powers is the inevitable result.
There can BE- no question that remedies
from the laboratory of nature are the best.
If theyare as efficacious, they have the ad-
vantage of leaving no after sting.
Their efficacy, if properly compounded and
the proper remedy applied to the proper dis
ease, will not be doubted. The experience of
ages proves it.
Their disuso has coma about principally
through the rapid congregation of people in
cities and villages, rendering these natural
remedies difficult to obtain. Progressive
business enterprise has lately led to putting
these old time remedies within reach OF ali
classes.
The propr1etors of Warmers safe remedies
in the faith that the people of to-day would
be benefited by using the simple remedies OF
log cabin days, have caused investigation tc
be made and secured the formulas of a mum
Der of those which long and successful use
had proved to be most valuable.
They viii, we learn, be known under the
general title of '' Warmers Log Cabin Rene
dies.'' Among these medicines will be

Cabin Hops n Ruchu Remedy for the
stomach, etc "Log Cabin Cough and Con
sumption Remedy, ; a remedy called "Scalp,
ine,f' for the hair, "Log Cabin Extract

valuable discovery for catarrh, Ca led "Log
