Ilohart Taylor, the proprietor
of Chicago's mest value 1 weekly
paper, America, is stiil a very
oimg man, yet he has already
develoiied humorons traits of a
subtile aud pungent ehaiater.
Last week he prayed a practical
joke on his editor, Slason
Pr. Oliver "Wendell Holme, on
t'in;; asked when the training of a
child should begin, replied, "A hun
t!r;d years before it is borne."
Are we to infer from this that this
veneration is responsible for the con
dition of tho race a hundred venra
from now?
Is this wonderful :eaeration tho
natural" result of the proper diet ant!
medicines of a hundred years ano?
It is conceded in other lands that
most of the wonderful discoveries oi
the world in this century have come
from this country. Our ancestors
wore reared in log cabins, and suffered
hardships and trials.
But they lived antl enjoyed health
to a ripe old ivc. The women of those,
days would endure hardships wit hen t
apputeiit fatigue that would fctaitUi
those of the presenUure.
"Why was it?
One of the prop.ietoin of tho popu
lar remedy kuov.n as Warner's wife
care, has been faitheillv investigating
the cause, and h:n culled to his aiU
scientt.-t.s as well
impref-s:ng upon tin m the fact that
there cannot be an ei'tel without
a cause. This inveMig:.l:cmdisc:hsed
the fact that in the olden times
simple remedies v. ere administerud,
comiH.mu-.lcd of htibt :v.ul roots,
which were gathei etl and tturcd in
the lofts of the log cabins, and wiran
sicklier came on, ihcse romedien
from natuie's laluralerv were ued
with the kt etrtcis.
What weie these icnicdies?
What were they r.sed for? After un
tiring and diligent search they have,
obtained the formulas so generally
used for various disorders.
Now the question is, how will
the olden time preparations affect tho
people of this age, who have hem
. i . l t .
iroaieu.untier modem metlual school
anil codes, with poisonous and in
jurious drugs. This teit has been
carefully pursued, until they are con
vinced that the preparations thov
now call Warner's Lo-; Cabin reme
dies are what our much abused
systems require.
Among them is what is known as
Warner's Log Cabin sarsaparilla,
and they frankly announce that thev
do in t consider the sarfapr.rilla of so
niucn vaiue m ilsell as it is in thu
combination of the various ingredi
ents which together work mnrveloitelv
upon the system. Thov also Imvo
prepura'ions for other diseases. Mich
as"W:irner'K Log Cabin cough ami
cnuMimption rcmedv," "Loir Cai)iii
hops andbuchu rcmedv," "Warner'H
Log Cabin hair tonic' Thev havo
great confidence that they have' a euro
for J ho common d'sense of catarrh,
which they give tho name of 'Lop
Cabin rose cream." AIfo a "Log
Cabin jdaster," which thev are con
titknt will supplant all others, and
a liver pill, to be used separately or
in connection with the other remedies.
We l one that the public will not
b- disappointed in these remediestmt
will reap a benelit from the investi
gations, and that the proprietors will
not be embarrassed in their introduc
tion by dealers trying to substituto
remedies that have been so familiar
to the shelves of our druggists. This
line of remedies will be used instead
t f others. Insist upon vour druggist
getting them for you if he hasn't thorn
yet in stock, and we feel confident
that these new remedies will rcceivo
approbation at our reader's hamlg,
as the founders have used every euro
in their preparation.
