EXCITEMENT IN ROCHESTER.

AsrAAoie statement ofa Physician.
The story published in these columns re.
cently, from the Rochester, N. Y, Demo.
crdt, created a deal of comment here as il
mas elsewhere. Apparently It caused even
more connection in Rochester, as the fol-
lowing from the same paper shows:
Dr. .. D. henion. who is we'll known not
only IN hoehecter but in nearly every part
~ america, sent an extended article to
.nis Pape., few days ago which was duly
published, detailing his remarkable ex-
Per-ence and rescue from what seemed to
re certain death. 1t would be impossible
to enumerate the personal inquiries which
have been ma1Iut-Qur otica-as to the va.
hdity of the article, but they have been so
numerous that further investigation of the
subject was deemed an editorial necessity,
with this end in view a representative
OF tbs paper called on DR.. Henion at his
lowing interview occurred: "That article
OF yours, Doctor, has created quite whirl-
wind. Are the statements about the terri

This, then, is what you meant when

Precisely. Thousands of diseases are
torturing people to-day, which in reality
are brlght's disease in some of its many
forms 1t Is hydra-headed monster, and

back and recall hundreds of deaths which
physicians declared at the time was
caused by paralysis, apoplexy, heart dis
ease, pneumonia, malarial fever and other
common complaints which see now were
caused by Bright's disease"
sand did all these cases have simple
symptoms at first!"
"Every one of them, and might have
been cured as was by the timely use of
the same remedy. 1 am getting my eyes
thoroughly opened in this matter and
and their possible danger also"
Mr.. Warner was visited at his establish
ment on North St Paul street. At first he
was inclined to be reticent, but learning
that the Information desired was about
Bright's disease, his manner changed in
stantiy and he spoke very earnestly:
els 1t true that Bright's disease had In
creased wonderfully, and we find, by reIi-
able statistics, that from 10 to 80, its
growth was over $50 per cent. Look at the
prominent men it has carried off; Everett,
Sumner, Chase, Wilson, Carpenter, Bishop
Haven, Folger, Colfax and others. Nearly
some prominent man from this scourg e.
Recently, however, the increase has been
checked, and attribute this to the general
use OF my remedy"
"Do you think many people are afflicted
with it to-day who do not realize it, MIR.
Warner"
ga prominent professor in New Orleans
medical college was lecturing before his
class on the subject of Bright's disease.
He had various fluids under microscopic
analysis and was showing the students
what the indications Of this terrible mall
ady were. And now, gentlemen he said,
will show you how it appears in a state
Of perfect health and he submitted his
own fluid to the usual test. As he watched
ihe results his countenance suddenly
changed-his color and command both left
aim, and in a trembling voice he said:
Gentlemen, l have made painful discov-
cry; have Bright's disease of the kid
neys.' And in less than a year he was
dead. The slightest indications of any
kidney difficulty should be enough to strike
terror to any one"
"You know of DR.. Henion's case?"
{ Eyes, have both read and heard of it."
! cit is very wonderful, is it not!"
"No more so than great many others
that have come to my notice as having been
cured by the same MEANS"
You believe then that Bright's disease
can be cured"
al know it can. know it from my own
and the experience of thousands of prom
inent persons who were given up to die by
both their physicians and friends"
"You speak of your own experience,
what was it?"
"a fearful one. / had felt languid and
untitled for business for years. But did
not know what allied me. When, how
ever, found it was kidney difficulty l
thought there was little hope and so did
the doctors. have since learned that one
of the physicians of this City pointed me
out to a gentleman on the street one day,
saying. lucre BOco Auuu WIZ VIZ D<
dead within year, l believe his words
would have proved true IL l had not provi-
dentially used the remedy now known as
Warmers Safe Cure"
DIR. s. A. baltimore, although busily en-
gagged upon some matters connected with
the State Board of Health, of which he is
one of the analysts, courteously answered
the questions that were propounded him:
''Did you make a chemica analysis of
the case of Mr.. H. H. Warner some three
years ago, Doctor~
"Yes, SIR"
"What did this analysis show your"
"The presence of albumen and tube casts
In great abundance"
"And what did the symptoms indicator"
"a serious disease of the kidneys"
"Did you think Mr.. Warner could re-
covert"
eNo, sir. did no think il possible"
"Do you know anything about the RENEE
dy which cured himy"
"Yes. have chemically analy zed it and
find it pure and harmless"
We publish the foregoing statements in
view Of the commotion which the publicity
of DR.. Henion's article has caused and to
