Widespread 0ommotion Caused BY that
Rsmarkab BILE Statement ofA Physioian.
The story published in these columns recent
Iy, from the Rochester, N. Y, Democrat, Gre
ated . great deal Of comment here as it
has elsewhere. Apparently it caused even
moro commotion in Rochester, as the follow
ing 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, de-
failing his remarkable experience and rescue
from what seemed to be certain death 1t
would be impossible to enumerate the psrAonal
enquiries which have been made at our Office
as to the validity 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 representative of this
paper called on DR.. Henion at his residence on
Andrews street, when tho following interview
occurred: '"That article of yours, Doctor, has
created quite whirlwind Are the statements
about the terrible condition You were in, and
the way you were rescued such as you can
sustain?"

headaches: felt tired most of the time; could
eat nothing one day and was ravenous the next;

treating symptoms instead Of diseases for
years, and it Is high time it ceased. The

''This, then, is what you meant when you
said that more than one half the deaths which
occur arise from Brights disease, is it Doctor?
precisely. Thousands of diseases are tor
turing people to-day, which in reality are
Bright's disease in some of its many forms
1t is q hydraheaded monster, and the slightest
symptoms should strike terror to every one
who has them I 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 I see now
were caused by Bright's disease.
''And did all these cases have simple SYM
ptons at first?"
Every one of them, and might have been
cured as 1 was by the timely use of the same
remedy. am getting my eyes thoroughly
opened in this matter and think I am helping
others to see the facts and their possible dan
ger also"
Mr. Warner was visited at his establishment
Oh North St Paul street At first he was in
clined to be reticeht, but learning that the IN
formation desired was about Bright's disease,
his manner changed instantly and he spoke
very earnestly:
cit is true that Brights disease had increased
wonderfully, and we find, by reliable 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,
I1dNeu, COlSof, COlldA duu otLcIs. NodI-
ly every week the papers record the death OF
some prominent man from this scourge Re-
Gently, however, the increase has been checked
and attribute this to the general use Of my rem
edy."
''Do you think many people are afaictedwith
it to-day who do not realize it, Mr.. Warner"
ga prominent professor in a New Orleans Med
ical college was lecturing before his class on the
subject of Bright's disease He had various flu
ids under microscopic analysis and was showing
the students what the indications of this terri
Bile malady were. And now, gentlemen,
indications I will show you how it
appears in state of perfect health
and he submitted his own fluid to the usual test.
As he watched the results his countenance sud
denly changed-his color and command both
left him and in trembling voice he said: Gen

than year he was dead The slightest indica-
ton 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
SIT 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"
eYou believe then that Brights disease can
be cured"
II know it can. known it from my own and
the experience of thousands Of prominent per-
sons who were given up to die by both their
physicians and friends"
"You speak of your own experience, what
was it,"
GA fearful one. 1 had felt languid and un-
fitted for business for years. But I did not
know what allied me- When, however, found
it was kidney difficulty thought there was
little hope and 80 did the doctors. Ihave since
pointed me out to a gentleman on the street one
day, saying: There goes man who will be
dead within year, I believe his words would
have proved true if I had not providentially
used the remedy now known as Warmers Safe
Cure"
Dr. s. A baltimore, although busily engaged
upon some matters connected with the State
Board of Health, of which he is one Of tho an
alysts, courteously answered the questions that
were propounded him:
f'Did you make chemical analysis OF the
case of Mr.. Il. H. Warner some three years ago,
Doctor?"
'sYes, SIR"
'sWhat did this analysis show your"
''The presence of albumen and tube casts in
great abundance"
'And what did the symptoms indicator"
ga serious disease Of the kidneys"
'sDid you think Mr. Warner could recovery"
s'No, sir. did not think it possible"
s.Do you know anything about the remedy
which cured him."
eyes. l have chemically analysed 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 meet the
protestations which have been made. The
doctor was cured four years ago and is well
and attending to his professional duties to-day.
The standing of Dr. Henion, Mr. Warner and
DR.. baltimore in the community is beyond cues
ton and the statement they make, cannot for
moment be doubted DR.. HenioD's experience
shows that Bright's disease of the kidneys is
one of the most deceptive and dangerous Of
all diseases, that it is exceedingly common, and
that it can be cured
The city is full of adventurers who
claim to be professionals, journalists,
and all sorts of people from all parts of
