A Hundred Years a Hero
HOW SETH WARNER WON WIFE AND
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 authorities obtained
an edict of the King of England in their
favor. The settlers were stung bv 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 outlawed and price put on their
! headsI
To circumvent New York, it was neces-
sary that some one should 90 into that
state and gain required information. Col.
| Warner, assuming for safety the name
of CDR. Howard" 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-bound. The father
/ lCil III anu CuC CuIIeu upon COl.
| Warner, who, with his wide knowledge
of SIMPLE remedies, successfully treated
| the sold man." and he finally won this
| devoted woman for 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 unpro-
feSSional friend verSed in the use OF SIM
pie herbs and roots The health of early
settlers and their power of endurance con-
vince 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 of simple
remedies and their power over 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 hundred years has
shared with Ethan Allen thee admiration
of the American people.
Colonel Seth Warner belongs to fam
members thereof won fame in the regular
practice of medicine.
Looking to the adoption by the people
of this generation of the old time simple
remedies, his direct descendant, H. HI.
Warner, the well-known proprietor of
Warmers safe cure, for many years has
been experimenting with old time roots
and herbs formul9 and, his search having
been finally rewarded with success, he
gives the world the result. These reci-
pes and formula in other days accom-
plished 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 Cab
in remedies, using as a trademark an
old-fashioned American cabin. We under
stand that he intends to put forth ''sar-
saparilla," for the blood, the SarsapaIilla
itself being but one of number of simple
and effective elements; ''Log Cabin hops
and buchu," general stomach tonic and
invigorator; LOG Cabin cough and con-
sumption remedy, " ''Warner's Log Cabin
hair tonic;" a preparation for that uni
versal disease catarrh, called LOG Cabin
rose cream; :" "Warner's Log Cabin plaS-
ters;" and Warmers Log Cabin liver
pills" which are to be used in connection
with the other remedies, or independent
ly as required.
Warmers safe remedies are already
standards of the most pronounced scien-
tific value in all parts of the world, and
we have no doubt the Log Cabin RENE
dies, for the diseases they are intended
to cure, will be of equal merit, for Mr..
Warner has the reputation of connecting
his name with no preparation that is not
meritorious.
