a Well known GenIIeman's Philan.
Il throphy and the Commotion
Uaused by One OF His Letters.
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
We published in our local colnmnsye
terday morning significant letter from
q gentleman known personally or by
reputation to every person in the land
We have received q number of letters
protesting against the use ofour columns
for such spatpabie frauds and misre pre-
sentations;'' therefore to confirm beyond
doubt the authenticity Of the letter,
and the genuineness of ite sentiments, a
reporter Of this paper was commissioned
to ascertain all the possible facts in the
matter. Accordingly he visited Clifton
Springs, saw the anthor Of the letter, and
with the following result. # @ s.. s,.s.
DR.. Henry Fosfe. the gentleman in
question, is 63 or 81 years of age and has
an extre meiy cordial manner He pre-
sides as superintendent over the cale-
brated santarium which accommodates
over 500 guests and is unQuestlonably the
leading health resort of the country
Several years ago this benevolent man
wisely determined to be his own execu-
tor; and, therefore turned over this mag
nificant property worth $500 900. as q free
gift to q board Of trustees, representing
the principal evangelical denominations.
Among the trustees are Bishop A. c..
Coke, Protestant Episcopal, Buffalo;
Bishop Mathew Simpson. Philadelphia,
Methodist Episcopal; President NJ. B.
Anderson ofthe University OF Rochester;
Rev DR.. Clark, Secretary of the A. 3. c..
T. M, Boston. The benevolent purpose
of the institution is the care; lst.-of
evangelical missionaries and their fami-
lies whose health has been broken in their
work. 2nd.-of ministers, OF any de-
nomination, in good standing. 3rd.-of
members of any church; who otherwise
would be unable to secure such care and
treatment. The current expenses Of the
institution are met by the receipt from
the hundreds of distlngu shed and
wealthy people who every year crowd
its utmost capacity. Here come men
and women who we're once in perfect
health, but neglected the first symptoms
of disease. The uncertain pains they cit
a, first were overlooked until their health
became imp ired. They little realized
the danger be ore them, nor how alarm
ing even trif1ing ailments might prove.
They constitute all classes including
ministers and bishops, lawyers, judges
statesmen, milIionaires, journalists, COL
lege protessorsand officials from all parts
of the land.
Drawing the morning Democrat and
Chrorirle from his pocket, the re porter
has created a good deal Of talk, and many
of our readers have questioned it's au-
thenticity."
40 what doyou refer?" remarked the
doctor.
"Have you not seen the paper??"
eyes, but have not had time to read
it yet"
The reporter thereupon showed him
the letter, which was as follows:
CLIFTON SPRINGS SANIrAR1UM, Co.
CLIFTON SPRINGS, N. Y, Oct. II, 1883.
Dear Sir: am using Warmers Safe
Cure, and regard it as the best remedy
for some forms Of kidney disease that
we have. I am watching with great care
some cases am now treating with it,
and hope for favorable results.
wish you might come down yourself,
as won d like very much to talk with you
about your sterling remedy and show
you over our institution. Yours truly.
[Signed] HENRY FOSTER, NJ. D.
II do not see why anybody should be
sceptical concerning that letter." re-
marked the doctor.
"Isn't it unusual for a physician of
your standing and influence to commend
proprietary preparation?"
II don't know how it may be with
others, but in this institution we allow
no person to dictate to MS what we shall
use. Our purpose is to cure the sick, aud
for that work we use anything we know
to be valuable Because I know War
ner's Safe Cure is very valuable prep
aration, commend it. AS its power is
manifested under my use. so shall add
to the completeness of my commenda-
tion.''
"Have you ever analysed it, DOCTOR"
1--WE always analyze before we try
know the constituents. But analysis
you know, only gi yes the elements; it
does not give the all important proper
ii ons. The remarkable power Of War
ner's Safe Cure undoubtedly consists in
the proportions according t. which it's
elements are mixed" While there NAV
be thousand remedies made of the
same elements, unless they are put to-
gether in proper proportions, they are
worthless as kidney and liver prepara-
tons.
81 hope some day to meet Mr.. War
ner personally, and extend fuller con-
CALCULATIONS to him on the excellence Of
his preparations. have heard much of
him as the founder of the Warner OBJ
servatory, and as a man OF large benev-
olence The reputed high character Of
the man himself gave assurance to me in
the first place that he would not put
remedy upon the market that was not
trustworthy; and it was source of a
good deal ofgratificationto me to find out
by actua: experiment that the remedy
itself sustained my impressions.'
The conclusion reached by DR.. Foster
is precisely the same found by DR.. Die
Lewis, DR.. K 'oert A. Gum, Elk Surgeon
General Gallagher and others, aud
proves beyond doubt the great efficacy
of the remedy which has awakened so
much attention in the land and rescued
so many men, women and children from
