A few weeks ago we copied into our col.
umns, from the Rochester, N. Y, Democrat
and Chronicle, ga Remarkable Statement"
made by ]. B. Henion, M. D., o gentleman
who is well known in this city. In that arti-
Gle DR.. Henion recounted wonderful expert
ence which befell him, and few days there
after we published from the same paper q
second article, giving an account of the EEK
element in Rochester," caused by DR.. Hen
ions statement. In the first article DR.. Henion
stated that for number of years, up to last
June. he had been afflicted with what seemed
at first a most mysterious trouble. He felt
unaccountably tired at frequent intervals; he
had dull and indefinite pains in various parts
Of his body and head. and was very hungry
one day and entirely without appetite the next.
However, as a physician he thought, and so
did his fellow physicians, that he was suffering
from malaria.
But yet he grew worse, and was finally
obliged to give up large and lucrative prac-
tice. Still he was not conscious Of his dan
ger, nor that monstrous disease was becoming
fixed upon him, although all his organs had
become gradually weakened. The symptoms
above described continued, accompanied by
others OF an aggravated nature, and he noticed
a peculiar color and odor about the fluids he
was passing: that they were abundant one day
and very scanty the next, and were covered
with froth, or filled with brick dust sediment.
But even then he did not realize his real and
alarming condition. At last, however, he was
brought face to face with the fact that he was
victim of most terrible disease, and he
made heroic efforts for recovery. He travelled
extensively and consulted the best physicians,
but they could give him only temporary
relief, and that Principally in the form of
morphine. And SO he grew constantly and
steadily worse until his life became torture.
HIS pulse was uncomfortable. He lived
wholly by injections, and for six days and
nights he had the hiccoughs constantly,
which are considered the sure Indications of
coming death.
When hope and life were nearly exhausted
his pastor, the Rev, DR.. Foote, rector of St..
Paul's church, strongly urged him to try a
means which the reverend gentleman had seen
used with remarkable results. He objected at
first, bnt finally consented. and was conscious
of an improved condition the first week. His
pains gradually disappeared; his stomach re-
sumed digestion; his heart became regular;
his headaches disappeared; he had no more
chills and fever, or acidity of the stomach; he
gained twenty-six pounds in three months,
and is a well man to-day, being entirely cured
of mostpronounced case of Bright's disease.
Although conscious of the consequences
from his professional brethren, still as duty
to his fellow men, and, according to vow he
made on what he thought was his dying bed,
he published card detailing his illness and re-
markable cure. "Since my recovery" he
saws, "I have thoroughly reinvestigated the
subject of kidney difficulties and Bright's dis
ease, and 1 believe more than one-half the
deaths which occur in America are caused by
Bright's disease of the kidneys. 1t has no dis
tinctve symptoms of its own (indeed, it often
develops without any pain whatever in the
kidneys or their vicinity,) but has the symp-
toms of nearly every other known complaint.
Hundreds of people die daily whose burials
are authorized by physicians certificate of
heart disease 'apoplexy,' paralysis 'spi-
and other common complaints when in reality
twas Bright's disease of the kidneys. Few
physicians, and fewer people realize the ex-
tent of this disease or it's dangerous and lnsidl-
GUS nature. 1t steals into the system like a
thief, manifests it's presence by the common
est symptoms, and fastens itself upon the life
before the victim is aware. 1t is nearly as
hereditary as as consumption, quite as com.
mon and fully as fatal. Entire families, in
heriting it from their ancestors, have died, and
yet none Of the number knew or realized the
mysterious power which was removing them.
Instead of common symptoms 1t often shows
none whatever, but brings death suddenly
and as such is usually supposed to be heart
disease"
The second article, entitled Excitement in
Rochester" was made up of interviews with
n svnoa uI,r oil oosI
in his card, and also with Mr.. II. 81. Warner.
The latter gentleman did not regard DR.. Hen
IONS case as particularly exceptional, because
he had known of very many such cures by the
same means in all parts of the land. Kidney
diseases, he SAID, are carrying off tens of
thousands every year, while Bright's disease
is increasing $50 per cent a decade, and yet
the people do not realize it or seek to check
it until too late He related how New Or
leans medical professor, lecturing on this
disease, thinking to show his class what
healthy fluids were, subjected some of his own
to chemical test, and although he had no
suspicion of it before, discovered that he, too,
had the dreaded disease, which proved fatal in
less than year. There was also an interview
with the celebrated chemist of the New York
state board of health, DR.. s. A. baltimore,
who said he had analysed the remedy which
cured DR.. Henion, and found that it was s'en-
substances"
We have made these condensations in order
that all the material facts may be set before
our readers. Since the publication of these
two articles, having bsen besieged with letters
of inquiry, we send communication to DR..
Henion and also one to H. H. Warner & Co.,
asking if any additional proof could be given
us as to the validity of the statements pub
lished. In answer thereto we have received
the1ollowing letters, which add interest to the
entire subject and wholly verify every state
ment hitherto made:
ROCHESTER,, N, Y. Feb. 2, 1892
Gentlemen-Your favor is received. The pub
lshed statement, over my signature. to which you
refer Ia true in every respect, and owe my life and
present health wholly to the power OF Warmers Safe
Kidney and Liver Cure, It is not surprising that
people should question the statement made, for
my recovery was great marvel to myself as TO my
J.B. HEN1,N, N. d.
ROCHESTER, N. Y, Jan. 81, 1882.
Sirs-Acknowledging your favor duly received, we
would say: The best proof We give you that the
sta emsnts made by DE- Hsnion are entirely true,
and would not have been published unless strictly 3d.
Is the following testimonial from the best citizens Of
Rochester, aud card published by Rev. DR.. Foote,
which you are at liberty to use If you wish.
