- Dcmocut ana ChipWctc was published
Ia this paper recently and has been the sub
iect Of much conversation both in profess
sional circles and on the street. Apparently
il caused more commotion in Rochester, as
the following from the same papor shows.
DR.. .B. Henion, who is we'll known not only
in Rochester, but In nearly every part OF
America, sent an extended article to this pa
per,,a few days since, which was duly pub
lished, detailing his remarkable experience
and rescue from what seemed to be osrtafn
death. would beiirnossible to enumerats
the personal inquiries which have been made
at our Office as to the validity of tho article,
bat they have been 30 numeroue That fufiher
investigation OK the subject was deemed an
editorial necessity.
With this end in view a representative of
this paper called on DIR. Henion, at his resi-
dence on St. Paul street. when the following
interview occurred; "That article Of yours,
doctor, has created quite whirlwind. Are
the statements about the terrible condition
you were in, and the way you were rescued
such as you can sustainl"
Every one of them and many additional
ones. Few people ever get so near the grave
as did and then return, and am not sur
prised that the public think it marvellous. 1t

most of the time, could eating nothing one

cations of the first stages of that dreadful
malady. The fact is few people know or
realize what ails them, and l am sorry to say
that too few physicians do either"
THAT is strange statement, doctor"
but il is a true one. The medical pro-
fession have been treating symptoms in
stead of diseases for years, and It is high
time it ceased. We doctors have been clip
ping of the twigs when we should strike at
the root. The symptoms l have just men,
toned or any unusual action or irritation Of
the water channels indicate the approach of
Bright's disease even more than cough an
nounces the coming of consumption. We
do not treat the cough but try TO help the
lungs. We should not waste our time trying
to relieve the headache, stomach, pains
about the body or other symptoms, but go
directly to the kidneys, the source of most
of these ailments"
"This, then, is what you meant when You
said that more than one-half the deaths
which occur arise from Bright's disease, is it,
doctorp"
Precisely. Thousands Of so-called dis
eases are torturing people to-day, when in
reality it is Bright's disease in some one Of
its many FORMS 1t is hydra-headed mon
ster, and the slightest symptoms should
strike terror to every one who has them. /
can look back and recall hundreds of deaths
which physicians declared at the time were
caused by paralysis, apoplexy, heart disease,
pneumonia, malarial fever and other com
mon complaints which see now we're caused

"And did all these cases have simple symp-

cured as / was by the timely use of the Same

Cure. / am getting my eyes thoroughly
ing others to see the facts and their possible
danger also. Why, there are no end OF
truths bearing on this subject If you want
to know more about it go and see Mr.. War
ner himself. He was sick the same as ], and
is the healthiest man in Rochester to-day. He
has made study of this subject and can give
you more facts than can. Go, too, and see DIR.

If you want facts there are any quantity ol
them showing the alarming increase OF
Brights disease, its simple and deceptive
symptoms, and that there is but one way by
which it can be escaped
Fully satisfied of the truth and force OF
the DOCTORS words, the reporter bade him
good-day and called on Mr.. Warner at his
establishment on Exchange street. At first
Mr.. Warner was inclined to be reticent, but
learning that the information desired was
about the alarming increase of Bright's
disease, his manner changed instantly and
he spoke very earnestly:
alt Is true that Brights disease has IN
creased wonderfully, and we find, by reliable
statistics, that in the past ten years its
growth has been 80 per cent. Look at the
prominent men It has carried of; Everett,
Sumner, Chase, Wilson, Carrenter, Bishop
Haven and Others. This is terrible, and
shows a greater growth than that Of any
other known complaint 1t should be plain
to every one that something must be done to
check this increase or there Is no knowing
where it may end"
"Do you think many people are afflicted
with it to-day who do not realize it, Mr.
Warner?"
Hundreds of thousands. have a
striking example of this truth which has Just
como to my notice A prominent professor
in New Orleans medical college was lee
turing before his class on the subject oI
Bright's disease. He had various fluids un.
der microscopic analysis, and was showing
the students what the indications of this
terrible malady were. In order to show
the contrast between healthy and un-
healthy fluids, he had provided via
the contents of which were drawn from
his own person. 'And now, gentlemen, he
| said, as wehaye seen the unhealthy indica-
! tions, l will show You how il appears in q
state of perfect heaIfh, and he submitted his
own fluid to the usual test. As he watched
the results his countenance suddenly changed
his color and command both left him, and
