even more commotion in Rochester, as the fol-
lowing FROM the same paper shows:
DR.. J. B. Henion, who is well known not
only in Rochester but in nearly every part Of
America, sent an extended article to this paper
few days since which was duly published de-
failing his remarkable experience and rescue
from what seemed to be certain death. 1t
would be impossible to enumerate the personal
inquiries which have been made at our Office
as to the validity of the article, but they have
been 80 numerous that further investigation of
the subject was deemed an editorial necessity.
With this end in view representative 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 awhirlxind. Are the statements
about the terrible condition you were in, and
the way you were rescued such as you can sus-
tain 2"

DIV. The fact is, few people know or realize
what ails them, and am sorry TO say that too
few physicians do either"
"That is strange statement, Doctor"
"But it is a true one. The medical profes.
sion have been treating symptoms instead oi
diseases for years, and it is high time it ceased.

but go directly to the kidneys, the source oil

"This, then, is what you meant when you

Fully satisfied of the truth and fofss OF the
Doctors words, the reporter bade him good
day and called on Mr. Warner at his establish
ment on Exchange street. At first MIR. Warner
was inclined to be reticent, but leaning. that
the information desired was about the alarm
ing increase Of Bright's disease, his manner
changed instantly and he spoke very earnestly:
"It is true that Bright's disease has In
creased wonderfully, and we find, by reliable
statistics, that in the past ten years its growth
has been $50 per cent. Look at the prominent
men It has carried off: Everett, Sumner,
Chase, Wilson, Carpenter, Bishop Haven and
others. This is terrible and shows greater
growth than that Of any other known com.
plant. It must be plain to every one that
something must be done to check this increase
orthere ia no knowing where it may end"
"Do you think many people are afflicted with
1t to-day who do not realize it, MIR. Warner"
Hundreds of thousands. have striking
example Of this truth which has just come to
my notice. A prominent professor in New VI.
leans medical college was lecturing before hls
class on the subject Of Bright's disease. He
had various fluids under microscopic analysis,
and was showing the students what the indica-
tions Of this terrible malady were In order to
draw the contrast between healthy and un-
healthy fluids he had provided vial, the con-
tents Of which were drawn from his own per-
son. 'And now, gentlemen he said, as we
have seen ths unhealthy indications, Will
show you how it appears in state OF perfect
health and he submitted his own fluid to the
usual test. AS he watched the results MS
countenance suddenly changed-his color and
command both left him, and in trembling
voice he ssid: Gentlemen, have made pain

"You believe, then, that Bright's disease can
