both IN professlona circles and on the
street. Apparently it caused more
cOmmotion IN Rochester, as the follow
inc fIom the same paper shows:
DR.. J. B. Henlon, who is well known
not only in Rochester, but IN nearly
every part of America, sent an ex end.
ed article TO this paper, few days
since, Which was duly published, de-
failing bis remarkable experience and
rescue from what seemed to be certain
death. 1t would be impossible to
enumerlte the personal enquiries which
have been made at our cfiice as to the
validity Of the article, but they have
been so numerous that further nvesti.
CATION of the subject was deemed an
editorial necessity.
With this end in view a representa- =
live of this paper called o. DR.. Henlon
at hls residence, when the following
| luicrNleW occurred:
That article of yours, doctor, has
created quite a whirlwlnd. Are the
statements about the terrible con dltion
you were in, and the way you were
rescued such as YOU can sustain?'
Every Que Of them and many addi-
tional ones. Few people ever get so
near the grave as did and then return,
and am not surprised that the public
think 1t marvellous. 1t was marvel
ous.'
How IN the world did you, physi-
clan, come TO be brought so low?'
by neslecling the first aud most
simple symptoms. l did not think l
was sick. 1t is true l had frequent
headaches; felt tired most Of the lime;
could eat nothing one day and was
rayenous the next; felt dull, indetinite
pains, and my stomach was out Of or
der. but did not think it meant any
thing serious"
But have these common ailments
anything TO DO with the fearful BrighPs
disease which took so firm hold on
you"
Anything Why, they are the sure
indications of the first stages of that
dreadful malady. The fact is, few peo-
pie know or realize what alls them, and
| am sorry TO say that too few physi,
clans do either
That is a strange statement, DOCTOR
But it is true one. The medical
profession have been treating symp-
toms instead of diseases for years, and
it Is high time 1t ceased. We doctors
have been clipping of the twigs when
we should strike at the root: The
symptoms | have just mentioned or
any unusual action or irritation Of the
water channels indicate the approach
of Bright's disease even more than
cough announces the coming OF con-
sumption. We DO not treat the cough, |
but try 10 help tie lungs. We should
not waste our time trying 10 relieve
the headache, stomach, pains about the
body or other symptoms, but 60 direct
ly to the kidneys, the source Of most IF
these ailments
This, then. is what you meant when
you said more than one-half the deaths
which occur arise from BrlghPs dis
ease, is it doctor?'
Precisely. Thousands OF so.called
diseases are torturing people to-day,
when in reality it is Bright's disease in
some one of its many forms. 1t is a
Hydra headed monster and the slightest
symptoms should strike terror 10 every
one who has them. l 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 Brght's disease
And did all these cases have simple
symptoms at lirst?'
Every one of them, and might have
been cured as l was by the timely use
of the same remedy-Warner's Safe
Cure: 1 am getting my eyes thorough
ly 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 on this SUBJ
iect, If you want to know more about
it 90 and see Mr.. Warner himself. He =,
was sick the same as l, and is the
healthiest man III Rochester to-day. He
has made a study of this subject and =
can give you more facts than l eau.
30, TOO, and see DR.. baltimore, the T
chemist, at the University. If you
want lacts there are any quantity OF .
hem showing the alarming increase OF .
Bright's disease, its simple aud decep- q
i've symptoms, aud there is but one o.
way by which it can be escaped II
Fully satisfied Of The truth aud force II
IF the Doctors words, the reporter .,
2ade him good day and called upon
Mr.. Warner at bis establishment on
Exchange street. And at first Mr.. o.
Warner was inclined to be rehcent, but q
earning that the information desired u
vas about the alarming Increase Of L
Bright's disease, his manner changed u
instantly and be spoke very earnestly: M
1T is tue that Brighps disease has "
increased won derfully, AMI we find, by ca
eliable statistics, that in the past ten
ears its growth has been $50 per cent.
