THE CoMMoTloN CAUSED BY TIE STATE
MENT OF PHYSICIAN.
An unusual articlelfrom the Rochester,
N. Y, Democrat and Chronicle, was
published in this paper recently and has
been the subject of much conversation
both in professional circles and on the
street. Apparently it caused more
commotion in Rochester, as the follow
ing from the same paper shows:
DR.. J. B. Henion, WHO'S well known
not only in Rochester, but in nearly
every part of America, sent an extend
ed article to this paper, few days
since which was dnly published, de-
failing his remarkable experience and
rescue from what seemed to be certain
death. 1t would be impossible TO emu
merate the personal enquiries which
have been made at our office as to the
validity of the article, but they have
been so numerous that further investi-
cation of the subject was deemed an
editorial necessity.
With this end in view a representa-
tive of this paper called on DR.. Henion,
at his residence on St. Paul street,
when the following interview occur
red: 's'That article of yours, Doctor,
has created quite whirlwind. Are
the statements about the terrible con.
dition you were in, and the way you
were rescued such as you can sus
tain 7"
"Every one of them and many ad
ditional ones. Few people ever gel
so near the grave as ! did and then
return, and I am surprised that the
public think it marvellous, 1t was mar
velous' n..
"How in the world did you, ply
siclan, come to be brought SO low y
'By neglecting the first and most
simple symptoms. did not think
was sick. 1t is true l had frequent
headaches felt tired most of the time
could eat nothing one day and was ra
venous the next felt dull indefinite
pains and my stomach was out OF order
but / did not think it meant any thing
serious" .fIr...t
| "But have these common ailments
anything to do with the fearful Bright
disease which took so firm hold OF
you 7"
"Auything! Why, they are sure in
dications OF the first stages of tha
dreadful malady. The fact is, few
people know or realize what ails them
aud / am sorry to say that few physi
clans do either" s.
4. "That is strange statement Doc
tor" ....
''But it is true one. The medica
profession have been treating syml
toms instead of diseases for years, an
it is high time it ceased. We doctor
have been clipping off the twigs whe
we should strike at the root. Th
symptoms l have just mentioned Q
any unusual action or irritation of tn
water channels indicate the approach {
Bright's disease even more than
} cough announces the coming Of col
sumption. We do not treat the cou 4
but try to help the lungs. We shoul
not waste our time trying to relieve th
J, headache, stomach, pains about tt
body or other symptoms, but go direc
y ly to the kidneys, the source of most
T. these ailments"
"This, then, is what you meal
It when you said that more than one.ha
:. the deaths which occur arise fro
= Bright's disease, Is it, doctori"
e "Precisely. Thousands of so-callt
n diseases are torturing people to-da
L when in reality it is Bright's disease
NJ some one of its many forms. 1t is

N every one who has them. | can lo'
% back and recall hundreds of deaf
which physicians declared at the tin
'e were caused by paralysis, apoplex

ie which see now were caused by Brigh

"And did all these cases have siml
IN symptoms at first :"
"Every one of them, and might ha
been cured as was by the timely ,

b. Fully satisfied of the truth and 70
at of the Doctors words, the repol
to bade him good day and called on
,al Warner at his establishment on
Ite change street At first Mr.. War
was inclined to be Ieticent, but lea
