JUST AS BAD AS PAINTED.
Widespread Commotion Caused by ths
Terrible Confession of Physician.

Terrible Confession OF physician.
The story published in these columns re.
Gently, from the Rochester, N. Y, Democrat
and Chronicle, created deal of comment
here as it has elsewhere. Apparently it
caused even more commotion in Rochester,
as the following 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 un extended article to this
paper q few days ago which was duly pub
fished, detailing his remarkable experience
and rescue from what seemed to be certain
death. 1t would be impossible to enumerate
the personal inquiries 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 necessary.
With this end in view representative OF
this paper called on DR.. Henion at his resi-
dence on Andrew street, when the follow
ing interview occurred: THAT article of
yours, Doctor, has created quite whirl-
wind. Are tho statements about the terri

''This, then, is what you meant when you
said that more than one-half the deaGhs
which occur arise from Bright's disease, is
it Doctor!n
"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 terror
to every one who has them. l can look
back and recall hundreds Of deaths which
physicians declared at the time were caused
by paralysis, apoplexy, heart disease, pneu-
monia, malarial fever and other common
complaints, which see now were caused by
Bright's disease"
"And did all these cases have simple
symptoms at first?''

remedy. am getting my eyes thoroughly
opened in this matter and think l am help
ing others to see the facts and their possible
danger also"
Mr.. Warner, who was visited at his estab-
ment on North st. Paul street, spoke very
earnestly:
''It is true that Bright's disease had in
creased wonderfully, and we find, by relia-
Bile statistics that from 10 to 80, its growth
was over $50 per cent. Look at the promi-
nent men it has carried off, and is taking
off every year, for while many are dying
apparently OF paralysis and apoplexy, they
are really victims of kidney disorder, which
causes heart disease, paralysis, apoplexy,
etc. 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 ita''
" A prominent professor in a New Orleans
medical college was lecturing before his
class on the subject of Bright's disease. He
lad various fluids under microscopic analy-
sis and was showing the students what the
indications of this terrible malady were.
And now, gentlemen he said, as we have
seen the unhealthy indications l will show
you how it appears in q state of perfect
health,' and he submitted his own fluid to

his countenance suddenly changed-his
color and command both left him and in a
voice he said: Gentlemen,

less than a year he was dead. The slightest

"You know of DR.. Henion's case.'
"Yes, 1 have both read and heard of it."

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?"

"Did you make achemical analysis of the
case of Mr.. II. II. Warner, some three years
ago, Doctor?" was asked DR.. S. A. 1atti-
more, one of the analysts of the state board
Of health
"Yes, sir"
"What did this analysis show you2"
:" A serious disease of the Kidneys"
"Did you think Mr.. Warner could recov-
er?D
"No, sir. did not think it possible"
Do you know anything about the RENE
dy which cured him."

DR. Henion was cured fire gears ago and is
,oeU and attending to his professional duties
today, in this city. The standing of DR..
Henion, Mr.. Warner and Dr. baltimore in
the community is beyond question, and the
statements they make can not for moment
be doubted. DR.. Henions 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, but
that it can be cured if taken in time.
