Democratic Sentinel, Volume 12, Number 12, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 13 April 1888 — “Didn’t Know It Was Loaded.” [ARTICLE]
“Didn’t Know It Was Loaded.”
The young man fell dead! A Inend had pointed a revolver at him. “He didn’tknow it wae loaded!” We otten hear it stated that a man is not responsible for what he does hot know. The law presupposes knowledge, and therefore convicts the man who excuses crime by ignorance! “If I had only known” has often been an unfortunate man’s apology for some evil unknowingly wrought, but in a matter of general interest—as, for instance, that laudanum is a poison, that naphtha is a deadly explosive, that the blood is heavily charged with a winter’s accumulations of the waste of the system—it is one’s duty to know the fact and tuo consequences thereof. Our good old grandmothers knew, for instance, that the opening of spring was the most perilous period of the year. • Why? Because then the blood stream is sluggish and chilled by the cold weather, and if not thinned a good deal and made to flow quickly and healthfully through the arteries and veins, it is impossible to have good vigor the rest of the year. Hence, without exception, what is known as Warner’s Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, wm plentifully made and religiously given to every member of the family regularly through March, April, May and June. It is a matter of record that this prudential, preventive and restorative custom saved many a fit of sickness, prolonged life and happiness to a vigorous old age, and did away with heavy medical expenditures. lbs. Maggie Kerchwal, Lexington, Ky., used Warner’s Log Cabia Sarsaparilla “for nervous sick headache, of which 1 had been a sufferer for years. It has been a great benefit tome.” Captain Hugh Harkins, 1114 South Fifteenth street, Philadelphia, Pa., says “it purified my blood and removed the blotches from my skin. ” Mrs. Aarea Smith, Topton, Berks County, Pa., says she “was entirely cured of a skin disease of the worst kind,” by Log Cabin Sarsaparilla. Bad skin indicates a very bad condition of the blood. <3 If you would live and be well, go to your druggist to-day and get Warner’s Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, and take no other there’s nothing like it or as good—and completely renovate your impaired system with this simSle, old-fashioned preparation of roots and erbs. “ Warner, who makes the famous Safe Cure, puts it up, and that is a guarantee of excellence all over the known world. Take it yourself and give it to the other members of the family, including the children. You will be astonished at its health-giving and lifeprolonging powers. We say this editorially with perfect confidence, because we have heard good things of it everywhere, and its name is a guarantee that it is first class in every particular.
