EXCITEMENT IN ROCHESTER.
Widespread Commotion Caused by that
Remarkable Statement of a Physician.
The story published in these columns re.
Gently, from the Rochester, N. Y, Demo-
crdt, created a deal of comment here as il
has elsewhere. Apparently it caused even
more commotion in Rochester, as the fol-
lowing from the same paper shows:
DIR. j. B. Henion, who is well known moi
only in Rochester but in nearly every part
of America, sent an extended article to
this paper, q few days ago which was duly
published, detailing his remarkable ex.
perlence and rescue from what seemed ia
be certain death. 1t would be impossible
to enumerate the personal inquiries which
have been made at our Office as to the Va.
idity of the article, but they have been Sc
numerous that further investigation of the
subject was deemed an editorial necessity.
With this end in view q representative
residence on Andrews street, when the fol-
lowing interview occurred: "That article

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
are Bright's disease in some of its many
forms. 1t is HYDRA headed monster, and
the slightest symptoms should strike ter
ror to every one who has them. / can look
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 l see now were
caused by Bright's disease"
'And 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. am getting my eyes
thoroughly opened in this matter and
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:
SIS it true that Bright's disease had in
creased wonderfully, and we find, by reli-
able statistics, that from 20 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
every week the papers record the death of
some prominent man from this scourge.
Recently, however, the increase has been
checked, and I attribute this to the general
use of my remedy"
ssDo 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. sAnd now, gentlemen he said,
'as we have seen the unhealthy indications
l will show you how it appears in state
of perfect health and he submitted his
own fluid to the usual test. As he watched

changed-his color and command both left
him, and in a trembling voice he said:
Gentlemen, have made a painful discOv.
cry; have Bright's disease of the kid
neys.' And in less than q year he was
dead. The slightest indications of any
kidney difficulty should be enough to strike
terror to any one"
"You know of DIR. Henion's case:"
ayes, have both read and heard Of it."

"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"
"I 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"

untitled for business for years. But did

of the physicians Of this city pointed me

saying: There goes a man who will be
dead within a year. l believe his worda

DIR. S. A. baltimore, although busily en-
gagged upon some matters connected with
the State Board of Health, of which he IL

made. The doctor was cured four years
