Sa.n Francisco, Cal. The Chronicle
publishes in substance the following mar
vel: Captain W. F. Swasey the oldest
pioneer of the coast, makes a statement of
the intense suffering of his friend Colonel
D. J. Williamson,, an Army officer of dis
tinction, and an ex-U. S. Consul, who was
attacked in the winter of 1861-2 with vio
lent rheumatism. So great was his agony
in after years, he became a helpless crip
ple, and after trying numberless remedies,
the baths of other countries and spending
a fortune of 20,000, the disease seemed to
assume a more virulent type. Finally, he
was persuaded to try St. Jacobs Oil, the
great conqueror of pain. It worked a
miracle of cure. In a letter to the Chron
icle he confirms Captain Swasey's state
ment and adds. "I cheerfully give my un
qualified attestation to the truthfulness of
the statement, because I feel perfectly cer
tain that a knowledge of my cure by St.
Jacobs Oil, will prove the means of ra
ieving hundreds of sufferers."

ably one of the most disastrous that was
ever known, occurred in Rochester. N. Y
about twenty years ago. TheGenese rivpr.
just above the falls where Sam Patch made
his final and fatal leap, became completely
uioi-Kaueu uy ice, lorming an impassable
dam, and the water coming down the
Genesee river overflowed the nrincinal
portion of the city of Rochester. This
catastrophe would have been repeated the
present year nad not the energy and fore
sight of the city authorities prevented it.
The writer happened to be in Rochester at
that time and was greatlv interested in
the manner in which this great catastro
phe was averted. Every few moments, a
roar like the peals of thunder or the boom-

writer went to the top of the new Warner
building, which overlooks the Genesee
river. From here he was not only enabled
to see the process uninterrupted! v. but also
the magnificent building which has just
been completed. This is unquestionably
the finest building devoted to business
and manufacturing purposes in America,
being entirely nreproor, eight stories high.
and containing over four and a quarter
acres of flooring. Mr. Warner treated
your correspondent very courteously, and
in tne course 01 tne conversation said:
V e are doing a tremendous business
and are far behind In our orders. This is
the season of the year when people, no
matter how strong their constitution may
be, feel, more or less, the pain and indis
position, the headaches, colds, neuralgia,
rheumatism, dull pains, sore throats.
coughs all the thousand and one ills that
flesh is heir to come this time of the year.
if at all. It is natural, therefore, that we
6hould be very busy. This is specially
true of our Safe Rheumatic Cure, and it is
crowding us very sharply for a new reme
dy."
"Singular, but I had forgotten that you
do not advertise o cure all diseases from
one bottle, as is done generally by many
otner mecucine men, but 1 supposed War
ner's Safe Cure was for the cure of rheu
matism.
"And so it has been until our remedy
which was especially for rheumatism and
neuralgia, was introduced. We havB
been three years perfecting this new rem
euy. Diuay nrsc taugnt us tnere were
certain powerful elements in Warner's
Safe Cure, better known as Warner's Safe
ivianey ana Liiver ture. mat made won
derful cures in chronic and acute rheuma
usm, but auring our investigation, we
learned of a remarkable cure at a cele
brated springs, and put experts to investi
gate and found that the springs did not
contain any valuable properties, but the
course of treatment that was being given
there was performing all the benefit. By
carefully combining the active principles
of this remedy with our Safe Cure, we
have produced our Safe Rheumatic Cure,
and the cures it is effecting are simply
wonderful, and I do not doubt it will oe
eome as popular as our Safe Cure."
"You seem to talk freely in regard to
your remedies and appear to have no se
crets, Mr. Warner."
"None whatever. The physician with his
hundred calls and one hundred diseases,
is necessarily compelled to guess at a great
deal. We are enabled to follow up and
perfect, while physicans can only experi
ment with their hundred patients and
hundred diseases. With the ordinary
physician, the code binds him down, so
that if he makes a discovery, he is bound
to give it to the other physicians, which,
of course, discourages investigation, to a
great extent. This is why the great dis
coveries in medical science of late years
have been made by chemists and scientists
and not by physicians, and it in a measure
accounts for the great value of our reme
dies, also for the remarkable success of all
those doctors who make a specialty of one
or two diseases."
"And you find that you are curing as
great a number of people as ever before?"
"Yes, a far greater number. We never
sold so much of our medicine as now and
never knew of so many remarkable cures."
The writer departed after the above in
terview, but was greatly impressed, not
onlv by the sincerity of Mr. Warner, but
by the vastness of all he taw. Mr. War
ner's medicines are used throughout the
entire length and breadth of the land, and
we doubt not the result they are effecting
are really as wonderful as they are related
to be. -
