EXCITEMENT IN ROCHESTER,.
The commo:Ion Caused by the Statement
of a Physician.

An unusual article from the Roches-
ter, n. Y, Democrat and Chronicle, was
republished in this paper and was a
subject of much conversation. both in
professional circles and on the street.
Apparently 1t caused even more COM
motion in Rochester, as the following
from the paper shows:
DR.. ]. B. Henion, who is w~ell-known
not only in Rochester but / n nearly every
part of America. sent an extended ar
ticle to this paper, a few days since
which was duly published, detailing his
remarkable experience and rescue from
what seemed to be certain death. 1t
would be impossible to enumerate the
personal enquiries which have been
made at our Office as to the validity Of
the article. but they have been so num-
erous that further investigation Of
the subject wa deemed an editorial
necessity.
With this end in view a represent
alive Of this paper called on DR.. Henion,
at his residence on st. Paul street, when
the following interview occurred: THAT
article of yours, Doctor, has created
quite a whirlwind. Are the statements

in, and the way you were rescued such

l am sorry to say that too few physic-

"Thatis a strange statement, Doc
tor"
"But it is q true one. The medical
profession have been treating symptoms
instead of diseases for years, and it is
high time it ceased. We doctors have
