Remarkable Statement Fully Con-
frmed by Three Important
Interviews.

An unusual article from the Rochester
IN. " DrntOcrnt and Chronicle was pub
lishcd III this paper recently and has been
the subject of much conversation both in
professional circles and on the street.
Apparently it caused moro commotion In
Rochester. as the following from the same
paper shows:
Dr. j. b. HenOn. who is well known not
only in Rochester, but in nearly every paft
Of America, sent an extended article to
tits paper, q few days since, which was
duly published, detailing his remarkable
to he certain death. It would be impos-
sible to cnumorate the personal enquiries
which have been made at our office as to
the validity of tho article, but they nave
been SO numerous that further lnveStIga-
ton of tho subject was deemed an editorial
necessity. . j.
With this end in view a representative Of
this paper called on DR.. Henlon at his
residence, when tho following interview
occurred:
That article of yours, doctor, has
created quite whirlwind. Are the state
mcnts about the terrible condition you
were in, and the way you were rescued,
such as you can sustain:"
Every one of them and many additional
ones. Few people ever get so near the
grave as 1 did and then return, and 1 am
not surprised that the public think it mar
vclous. 1t was marvelous."
'.How in the world did you, a physician,
come to be brought SO low"'
''By neglecting the first and most simple
symptoms. I did not think / was sick. 1t
is true | had frequent headaches; felt tired
most OF the time; could eat nothing one
day and was ravcnous the next; felt dull,
indefiuite pains. and my stomach was out
of order, but did not think it meant any
thing serious"
1.I}ut have these common ailments any
thing to do with the fearful Brlght'S
disease which took so firm a hold on
you:"
"Anything? Why, they are tho sure in
dications of the first stages of that dread
full malady. The fact is, few people know
or realize what ails them, and am sorry
to say that too few physicians do either
THAT is Il strange statement, DOCTOR
"But it is a true one. The medical pro-
fession have been treating symptoms IN
stead of diseases for years, and 1t is hlgh
time it ceased. We doctors have been
clipping off the twigs when we should
strike at the root. The symptoms L have
just mentioned or any unusual action or
irritation of the water channels indicate
the approach OF BrlghtS disease even more
than a cough announces the coming or
consumption. We do not treat the cough,
but try to help the lungs. We should not
waste our time trying to relieve the head
ache, stomach, pains about the BODY or
other symptoms, but go directly to the KID.
neys, the source of most of these ailments"
'This, then, is what you meant when
you said more than one-half the deaths
which occur arise from Bright's disease, Is
it, doctor" ,
.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 a Hydra-headcd
monster and the slightest symptoms should
strike terror to every one who has them l
can look back and recall hundreds or
deaths which physicians declared at the
time were caused by paralysis, apopieXy,
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 hrstH'
I" Every one of them, and might nave
been cured as l was by the timely use OF
the same eremedy-Warner's Safe Cure.
am getting my eyes thoroughly open 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 o. this subject. If you want to
know more about it go and see Mr. W arner
himself. He was sick the same as l, and
is the healthiest man in Rochester to-day.
He has made study of this subject and
can give you more facts than. l can. Go,
the University. If you want facts there
are any quantity of them showing the
alarming increase of Bright's disease, its
simple and deceptive symptoms, and 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 tlrat the information desired
vas about the alarming increase of Bright's
disease, his manner changed instantly and
he spoke very earnestly:
