While suffering thus ] received call
from my pastor, the Rev. DR.. Foote, rector
of St. Paul's Church, of this city. l Ielt
that it was our last interview, but IN the
course of conversation be mentioned rem,
edv of which [ had heard much but had
never used DR.. Foote detailed to me the
many remarkable cures which had come
under his observation by means OF this
remedy, and urged me to try it. As prac-
ticing physician and graduate of the schools
cherished the prejudice both natural ana
common with all regular practitioners, and
derided the idea of any medicine outside
the regular channels being the least bene-
fetal. So solicitous, however, was Or.
Foote, that finally promised would waive
NV pre- iudice and try the remedy he SO high
ly recommended. | began its use on the

take it; the sickening sensation departed
and was able to retain food upon my
stomach. In few days l noticed a de-
cided change for the better as also did my
wife and friends. My hiccoughs ceased

also determined that would give course
of lectures in the Corinthian Academy OF
Music in this city, stating in full the symp-
tons and almost hopelessness Of my dis

l have been saved. My Improvement was

Investigated the subject of kidney difficult
ties and Bright's disease, and the truths
developed are astounding. l therefore
state. deliberately, and as physician, that
| believe more than one-half the deaths
which occur in America are caused by
Bright's disease of the kidneys. This may
sound like rash statement, bat am pre-
pared to fully verify it. Bright's disease
has no distinctive SYMPTOMS of its own, I'm
deed, it often develops without any pain
whatever in the kidneys or their ylclnlty),
but has the symptoms of nearly every other
known complaint. Hundreds of people die
daily, whose burials are authorized by {.
physician's certificate of " Heart t-Disease,"
q Appoplexy,"" Paralysis" Spinal Com
plaint," Rheumatism," Pneumonia"
and other common diseases, when in reality
it was Bright's Disease Of the kidneys.
Few physicians, and fewer people, realize
the extent Of this disease or its dangerous
and insidious nature. 1t steals INTO the
system like a thief, manifests its presence
by the commonest symptoms, and fastens
itself upon the constitution before the VIC
tim is aware. 1t is nearly as hereditary as
consumption, quite as common and fully as
fatal. Entire families, inheriting it from
their ancestors, have died, and yet none of
the number knew or realized the mysterious
power which was removing them. Instead
of common symptoms it often shows none
whatever, but brings death suddenly, and
as such is usually supposed to be heart dis
ease. As one who has suffered, and knows
by bitter experience what he says, | i'm
plore every one who reads these words not
to neglect the slightest symptom of kidney
difficulty. Certain agony and possible
death will be the sure result of such neg
lect. and no one can afford to hazard such
chances.
| am aware that such an unqualified
statement as this, coming from me, known
as l am, throughout the entire land as a
practitioner and lecturer, will arouse the
surprise and possible animosity of the
medical profession and astonish all with
whom | am acquainted, but l make the
foregoing statements, based upon facts
which | am prepared to produce, and truths
which l can substantiate to the letter. The
welfare of those who may possibly be suf-
ferers such as Twas, is an ample lnducement
for me to take the step | have, and if I
can successfully warn others from the
dangerous path in which l once walked,
am willing to endure all professional and
personal consequences.
