A Hundred Years a Hero.
HOW SETH WARNER WON WIFE AND
BECAME FAMOUS.

Colonel Seth Warner, of Vermont, the fam
Gus hero Of the Revolutionary wal, was a lead
ing fighter for the Hampshire grants.
These titles were disputed by the State Of
New York, aud its authorities obtained an
edict Of the King Of England in their favor
The settlers were stung by the supposed in
justice. This state ofthings 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 outlawed aud price put on
their heads
To circumvent New York, 1t was necessary
that some one should go into that state and
gain required information. Col. Warner,
assuming for safety the name of "Dr How
ard, " undertook this perilous and romantic
journey.
While on his way home he stopped at a
country inn, where an old gentleman and
daughter were storm abound. The father fell
i'll and the daughter called upon Col War
ner who, with his wide knowledge Of simple
remedies, successfully treated the "old man.
and he finally won this DEVOTED woman for
wife.
Such incidents were not uncommon in
those years. When the doctor was not cas-
lily reached, months of sickness, and even life
were often saved by some unprofessional
friend versed in the use of simple herbs and
roots. The health Of early settlers and their
powers of endurance convince us that such
medicines 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 con-
slant demand for his knowledge ofsimple
remedies and their power over disease. But
it was left to another of his name of the pres
ent 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 admiration of
the American people.
Colonel Seth Warner belongs to a family
Of wide distinction; no less than eight mem
bers thereof won fame in the regular prac-
tice of medicine.
Looking to the adoption by the people of
this generation Of the old time simple rene
dies, his direct descendant, H. H. Warner,
the well-kuown proprietor of Warmers safe
cure, for many years has been experiment
ing 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 formule in other days ac-
complished great things because they were
purely vegetable and combined simply so as
to cure the disease indicated, without injury
to the system. In harmony with their old
time character, we learn that he proposes to |
call them Warmers Log Cabin remedies,
using as a trademark an old-fashioued Amer.

Warmers safe remedies are already stand |

in all parts of the world, and we haye no
doubt the Log Cabin remedies for the dis
eases they are intended to cure, will be of
equal merit, for Mr.. Warner has the reputs.
