The Brookhaven leader. [volume] (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1883-1891, 1883-07-19
Remarkable Statement Fully Con-
frmed by Three Important
Interviews.

An unusual article from the Rochester
IN. " Democrat and Chronicle was pub
lshed in this paper recently and has been
the subject of much conversation both in
professional circles and on the street.
Apparently it caused more commotion in
Rochester, as the following from the same
paper shows:
DR.. j. B. Henion. who is we'll known not
only in Rochester, but in nearly every part
of America, sent an extended article to
this paper, q few days since, which was
duly published, detailing his remarkable
experience and rescue from what seemed
to be certain death. 1t would be impos-
sible to enumerate the personal enquiries
which have been made at our office as to
the validity of the article, but they have
been so numerous that further investlga-
ton of the subjectwas deemed an editorial
necessity.
With this end in view representative of
this paper called on DR.. Henion at his
residence, when the following interview
occurred:
THAT article of yours, doctor, has
created quite whirlwind. Are the state
ments 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 l did and then return, and / am

velOuS. 1t was marvellous"
"How in the world did you, physician,
come to be brought so lowY
"By neglecting the first and most simple
symptoms. | did not think | was sick. 1t
is true | had frequent headaches felt tired
most of the time; 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 any
thing serious"
"But have these common ailments any
thing to do with the fearful Bright's
disease which took so firm a hold son
you:"
Anything? Why, they are the 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 a strange statement, DOCTOR"
"But it is true one. The medical pro-
fesson have been treating symptoms in
stead of diseases for years, and it is high
time it ceased. We doctors have baen
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 Bright's disease even more
than cough announces the coming of
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
peys, 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
ii, 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
it's many forms. 1t is Hydra-headed

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 tirstp

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 1t go and see Mr.. Warner
himself. He was sick the same as /, and
is the healthiest 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.. baltimore, the chemist, at
the University. II 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 that the information desired
was about the alarming increase of Bright's
disease, his manner changed instantly and
be spoke very earnestly;
