lsyracuse Journal.J
Something Of a sensation was caused in this
city yesterday by rumor that one Of our best
known citizens was about to publish state
ment concerning some unusual experiences dur
ing his residence in Syracuse. How tho rumor
originated it is impossible to say, but reporter
Immediately sought DR.. B. g. Martin, the gem
leman in question, and secured the following
interview:
"Wha. about this rumor, doctor, that you
are going to make public statement Of some
important matters2"
Just about the same as you will find in all
rumors-some truth; some fiction, 1had con-
templated making publication of some re-
life, but have not completed it as YETI
What is the nature Of it, may I enquire p
"Why, the fact that am q human being in
stead of spirit. have passed through one
of the NEST wonderful ofdeals that perhaps
ever occurred to any man. Tho first intima-
ton had Of 1t was several years ago,
when began to feel chilly at night and rest
less after retiring. Occasionally this would be
varied by soreness Of the muscles and cram ps
in my arms and legs. thought, as most peo-
pie would think, that 1t was only cold and SO
paid as little atteneion to 1t as possible Short
ly after this l noticed peculiar catarrhal
trouble and my throat also became infamed,
Aa if this were not variety enough felt sharp
pains ia my chest, and constant tendency to
headache"
"Why didn't you take the matter in hand
and check it right where It was"
"Why doesn't every body do SO? Simply
because they thin6 it is only some tri1ing and
passing disorder. These troubles did not come
all at once and I thought it unmanly to heed
them. / have found, though, that every
physical neglect must be paid for and with
large interest. Men cannot draw drafts on
their constitution without honoring them some
time. These minor symptoms I have de-
scribed, grew until they were giants of agony.
I became more nervous; had strange lutter-
ing of the heart, an inability to draw long
breath and an occasional numbness that was
terribly suggestive of paralysis. How I could
have been go blind as not to understand what
this meant cannot imagine"
Sand did you do nothing2'
Yes, travelled. In the spring Of 1879 I
went to Kansas aud Colorado, and while in
Denver, WAS attacked with mysterious
hemorrhage of the urinary organs and lost
twenty pounds of flesh in three weeks. One
day after my return was taken with terrible
chill and at once advanced to very severe at
tack of pneumonia. My left lung soon entire.
ly filed with water and my legs and body be-
came twice their natural size. was obliged
to sit upright in bed for several weeks in the
midst of the severest agony, with my arms over
my head AID in constant fear Of suffocation."
"And did you still make no attempt to save
YOURSELF"
"Yes, made frantic efforts. tried every
thing that seemed to offer the least prospect
of relief. called a counsel OF doctors aud
had them make an exhaustive chemical and
microscop:cal examination Of my condition.
Five of the best physicians of Syracuse and
aro1 fro f1,ar ntfx r i.
Itseemed as though their assertion was true
for my feet became cold, my mouth parched,
my eyes wore fixed CLASSY stare, my body was
covered with cold, clammy death sweat, and
read my fate in the anxious expressions of
my family and friends."
.'But the .tfnale?"
"Came at last. My wife, aroused to desper-
alton, began to administer remedy upon her
own responsibility and while grew better yery
slowly, gained ground surely until, in brief, I
have no trace of the terrible Bright's disease
from which was dying, and am perfectly
well man, This may sound like romance, but
it IS true, and my life, health and what am
are due to Warmers Safe Cure, which wish
was. s.known to and used by the thousands who
1 believe, are suffering this minute as I was
originally. Does not such an experience as this
justify me in making public statement2"
"1t certainly does. But then Brights dis
ease is not common complaint doctor'
.Not common! On the contrary it is one of
the most common. The trouble is, few people
know thay have it. 1t has 80 few marked
symptoms until its final stages that person
may have it for years, each year getting more
and more in il ?ower and not suspect it. It is
quite natural I should feel enthusiastic over
this remedy while my wife is even more so than
l am. She knows Of its being used with sur
prising results by many ladies for their own
peculiar ailments, over which it has singular
power"
The statement drawn out by the above inter-
view, Is amply confirmed by very many of our
most prominent citizens, among them being
Judge Reigel, and Col. James s. Goodrich, Of
the Times, whilo Gen. Dwight II. Bruce and
Rev. Prof. ". P. Coddington, D. D., give the
remedy their heartiest endorsement. In this
age of wonders, surprising things are quite
common but an experience so unusual as that
of DIR. Martins and occurring here IN our
midst, may well cause comment and teach
lesson. 1t shows the necessity Of guarding
the slightest approach of physical disorder and
by the means which has been proven the most
reliable aud efficient. It shows the depth to
which one can sink and yet be rescued and it
proves that few people need suffer if these
truths are observed. Ei+. t9Ff7iff
