An unusual article from the Rochester
n. Y. Democrat and Chronicle, was
re7ubished in this paper and was 9
subject of much conversation. both II
professional circles aud on the street.
Apparently it caused even more com
motion in Rochester, as the following
from the same paper shows:
DR.. J. Is. Henion, who ia well-knowu
not only IN Rochester bat in nearly
every part OF America, sent an extend
ed article 10 this paper. few days
since which was duly published. de-

rescue from what seemed to be certain

been so numerous that further investi
CATION of the subject was deemed al
editorial necessity.
With this end in view a representa-
tive of this paper called On DR.. Henlon
at his residence on st. Paul street
when the following interview occurred

Anything? Why, they are the SURF

dreadful malady. The fact is, few peo
ple know or realize what ails them, ant
am sorry TO say that too few physI
clans do either
That is a strange statement, Doc

But It il a true one. The medlca
