N. Y, Democrat and ChrpHic1e, was re
published IN this paper yesterday aud was
a subject of much conversation In thin
city during the day, both In professions
circles and on the street. Apparently II
caused even mere commotion IN Rochester
ss the following from the same paper
shews:
DIR. j. B. Henion, who is well known
not only ia Rochester but in nearly every
part of America, sent an extended article
to this paper h few days since which was
duly published, detailing his remarkable
experience and rescue from what seemed
certain death. Il would be impossible to
enumerate the personal enquiries which
have been made at our Office as to the va
hdity of the article, but they have been so
numerous that further investigation Of the
subject was deemed an editorial necessity
With this end in view a representative
of this paper called on DR. Henion, at his
residence on st. Paul street, when the fol-
lowing interview occurred THAT art.
Gle of yours, Doctor, has created quite a
whiriwind. Are the statements about the
terrible condition you were in, and the way
you were rescued such as you can sustain 2
''Every one of them aud many addition
al ones. Few people ever get so near the
grave as | did and then return, and l am
not surprised that the public think It mar

Is true bad frequent headaches; could
eat nothing one day and was ravenous the
next; felt dull indefinite pains and my
stomach was out of order, but did not
think it meant anything serious"

Anything? Why, they are the sure in
dications of the first stages of that dread
ful malady. - The fact is, few people know
or reallz3 what ails them, and am sorry
that too few physicians do either.
"'That Is strange statement, Doctor.
"But 1t is true one Tne medical pro-
fession have been treating symptoms in

clipping off the twIgs when we should
strike at the root. The symptoms have

try TO help the lungs. We should not

'Ffhis, then, is what You meant when
you said that more than one-half the deaths

Precisely. Thousands of so called dis
eases are torturing people to-day, when in
reality II is Bright's disease in some ore IF
It's many forms. 1t Is Hydraheaded
monster, 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 common complaints which see
now were caused by Bright's disease"
"And did all these cases have simple
symptoms at frstp"
''Every one of them, and might have
been cured as was by the timely use of
the same remedy-Narners Safe Kidney
and Liver Cure. | am getting my eyes
thoroughly opened in this matter and think
| am helping others to see the facts
and their possible danger also. Why, there
are no end of truths bearing On this SUBJ
ject. If you want to know more about il

sick the same as !, and is the heathiest
man in Rochester to-day, He has made a
study of this subject and can give you
more facts than [ can. Go, too, and see
DR.. Lattimore, the chemist, at the Unlver-
sity. If you want facts there are any
quantity of them showing the alarming in
crease of Bright's 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, tine reporter bade hini
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
disease, his manner changed instantly, and
he spoke very earnestly:
sit is true that Bright's disease has in
creased wonderfully, and we find. by re.
liable statistics, that in the past ten years
it's growth has been $50 per cent. Look al
the prominent men it has carried of
Everett, Sumner, Chase, Wilson, Carpen
ter, Bishop Haven and others. This Il
terrible and shows greater growth thar

must be plain to every one that something

there is no knowing where 1t may end"
'Do you think many people are afflicted
with it to-day who do not realize it, Mr.
Warntr?"
Hundreds of thousands. I have
striking example Of this truth which hal

fluids under microscopic analysis and was

of this terrible malady were. In order t
