AN UNUSUAL FURORE.
4 Recent Excitement Investigated By
tho Herald and the Results Made
Public.
(From the Cleveland (Ohio) Herald.1
few weeks ago we copied into our columns
from the Rochester On. - Democrat and
Chronicle "a Remarkable Statement" made by
]. b. Henion, M. d., a gentleman who is well
known in this city. In that article DR.. Henion
recounted wonderful experience which befell
him, and few days thereafter we published
from the same paper second article, giving an
account of the Excitement in Rochester,
caused by DIR. Henions statement. In the first
article Dr. Henon stated that for number OF
years, up to last June, he had been afflicted
with what seemed at first most mysterious
trouble. He felt unaccountably tired at fire.
quent 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
physician he thought, and 30 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 danger,
nor that a monstrous disease was becoming
come gradually weakened. The symptoms
above described continued, accompanied by
| Others Of an aggravated nature, and he noticed
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 filed 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
q victim Of most terrible disease, and he made

tensively and consulted the beat physicians, but
they could give him only temporary relief, and
| that principally III the form OF morphine And
so he grew steadily and constantly worse until
his life became a torture. His pulse was UNI
| controllable. He lived wholly by injections,
and for six days and nights he had the hic-
coughs constantly which are considered the
sure indications Of coming death.
When hope and life were nearly exhausted
his pastor the Rev. DIR. 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, but 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-slx pounds in three months, and
| is well man to-day, being entirely cured Of q
most pronounced case OF Brights 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 pub
lished card detailing his illness aud remarka-
BILE cure. "Since my recovery" he says, ~
have thoroughly renvestigated the subject Of
kidney difficulties and Brights disease, and
| believe more than one-hdlf the deaths ,ohich
occur in america are caused ty By-ig&s dis
ease Of the kidneys. 1t has no distinctive symp-
TOMS Of its own Qndeed it often develops with
out any pain whatever in the kidneys or their
vicinity, but has the symptoms of every ether
known complaint Hundreds of people die
daily whose burials are AUTHORIZED by a physi-
clans certificate OF Heart Disease Apoplexy,'
| Paralysis, Spinal Complaint Rheumatism
Pneumonia and other common complaints,
| when in reality it was Bright's disease Of the
| kidneys. Few physicians, and fewer people,
realize the extent Of this disease or It's danger
Gus and insidious nature. 1t steals into the
system like a thief, nIanifests its presence by
the commonest symptoms, and fastens itself
upon tho life before the victim is aware. 1t is
nearly as hereditary as consumption, quite as
common and fully as fatal. Entire families,
inheriting 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 it often
shows none whatever, but brings death sudden
ly and as such is usually supposed to be heart
disease"
The second article, entitled Excitement in
Rochester, )" was made up Of interviews with
DR.. Henion himself, who confirmed all said in
his card, aud also with MIR. II. II. Warner. The
latter gentleman did not regard DR.. Henions
case a. particularly exceptional, because he had
known OF very many such cures by the same
means in all parts Of the land. Kidney dis
eases, he said are carrying of tens of thousands
every year, while Brghts disease is increasing
$50 per cent. decade, and yet the people do
tiUa nr To OH until, to<,l lot
He related how q New Orleans medical pro-
fessor, lecturing on this disease, thinking to
show his class what healthy fluids were, sub
jected some Of his own TO a chemical test, and,
although he had no suspicion Of it before, dis
covered that he, too, had the dreaded disease,
which proved fatal in less than q year. There
was also an interview with the celebrated chem
list of the New York State Board Of Health, DIR.
s. A. baltimore, who said he had analysed the
remedy which cured DIR. Henon and found
that 1t was "entreiy free from any poisonous
or deleterious substances
We have made these COMBINATIONS in order
that all the material facts may be Ret before our
readers. Since the publication of these TWO
articles, having been besieged with letters of
inquiry, we sent communication to Dr. Henion
and also one to II. ii. Warner & Co.. asking il
any additional proof could be given us as to
the validity OF the statements published. In
answer thereto we have received the following
letters, which add interest to the entire subject
and wholly verify every statement hitherto
made

0xNrI.KNEN Your favor is received. The

which Won refer is true in every respect, and

1t Is not surprising that people should ques-
ton the statement / made, for my recovery

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, Jan. 81, 1882.
SIRs Acknowledging your favor duly re-
ceived, we would say The best proof we can
give you that the statements made by DR..
Henion are entirely true, and would not have
been published unless strictly So is the follow
ing testimonial from the best citizens of Roches-
ter, and card published by Rev. DIR. Foote,
