Remarkable Statement ola Physician.
The story published in these columns re-
Gently, from the Rochester, n. Y, Demo-
crdt, created a deal Of comment here as it
has elsewhere. Apparently it caused even
more connection in Rochester, as the fol-
lowing from the same paper shows:
DR.. j. B. Henion, who is well-known not
only in Rochester but in nearly every part
OF America, sent an extended article to
this paper, few days ago which was duly
published, detailing his remarkable ex-
perience and rescue from what seemed 20
be certain death. 1t would be impossible
to enumerate the personal inquiries which
have been made at our office as to the va
lidity 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 this paper called on DIR. Henion at his
residence on Andrews street, when the fol-
lowing interview occurred: THAT article
of yours, Doctor, has created quite whirl-
wind. Are the statements about the terri
bie condition you were in, and the way
you were rescued such as you can sus-
tain.v
"Every one of them and many additional
ones. was brought so low by neglecting
the first and most simple symptoms. did
not think was sick. 1t is true | had fire.
quent headaches; felt tired most of the
time; could eat nothing one day and was
ravenous the next; felt dull pains and my
stomach was out of order, but l did not
think it meant anything serious. The med
ical profession have been treating symp-
toms instead of diseases for years, and it
is high time it ceased. The symptoms l
have just mentioned or any unusual action
or irritation of the water channels indicate
the approach of kidney disease more than
a cough announces the coming of consump-
ton. We do not treat the cough, but try
to help the lungs. We should not waste
our time trying to relieve the headache,
pains about the body or other symptoms,
but go directly to the kidneys, the source
of the most of these ailments"
This, then, is what you meant when
you said that more than one half the deaths
which occur arise from Bright's disease, is
it Doctor?
Precisely. Thousands Of diseases are
torturing people to-day, which in reality
are Bright's disease in some of its many
forms. 1t is a hydra headed monster, and
the slightest symptoms should strike ter
ror to every one who has them. i can lock
back and recall hundreds of deaths which
phys clans declared at the time was
caused by paraly sis, apoplexy, heart dis
ease, pneumonia, malarial fever and other
common complaints VIII, h l see now were
caused by Bright's disease"
"And did all these cases have simple
symptoms at frst!"
Every one of them, and might have
been cured as was by the timely use of
thoroughly opened in this matter ard
think am helping others to see the facts
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
stantly and he spoke very earnestly:
lis it true that Bright's disease had in
creased wonderfully, and we find, by reli-
able statistics, that from 10 to 80, its
growth was over $50 per cent. Look at the
prominent men it has carried off; Everett,
Snmner, Chase, Wilson, Carpenter, Bishop
Haven, Folger, Colfax and others. Nearly
every week the papers record the death Of
some prominent man from this scourge.
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?"
"a 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,
'as we have seen the unhealthy indications
L
of perfect health and he submitted his
own fluid to the usual test. AS he watched
the results his countenance suddenly
changed-his color and command both left
him, and in trembling voice he said:
Gentlemen, have made o 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.o
"You know of DR.. Henion's case?v
Eyes, have both read and heard of it,
at is very wonderful, is it not?"
No more SO than a 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:D
"a fearful one. had felt languid and
untitled for business for years. But did
ever, / found it was kidney difficulty
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: There goes a man who will be
| dead within year, l believe his words
would have proved true If had not provi-
deptially used the remedy now known al
| Warmers Safe Cure"
DR.. 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
ibid you make a chemica analysis OF
the case of Mr.. H. H. Warner some three
I years ago, Doctor!"
ayes, SIR"
"What did this analysis show YOUR
I "The presence of albumen and tube casts
| In great abundance"
"And what did the symptoms indicator
| "A serious disease of the kidneys"
| ibid you think Mr.. Warner could re-
Govern"
mo, sir. did no think it possible"
DO you know anything about the reme-
dy which cured him?"
Yes. have chemically analysed it and
find it pure and harmless"
| We publish the foregoing statements in
view of the commotion which the publicity
| of DIR. Henion's article has caused and ia
meet the protestations which have been
made. The doctor was cured four years
| ago and Is tcelI and attending to his pro-
fessional duties to-day. The standing OF
DIR. Henion, Mr.. Warner and DR.. Latti-
| more in the community is beyond question,
and the statements they make cannot for
/ a moment be doubted. DR.. Henion's ex-
perience shows that Bright's disease Of the
kidneys is one of the most deceptive and
dangerous of all diseases, that it is exceed
ingly common, and that it can be cured.
