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 pa

detailing his remarkable experience and res

It would be impossible to enumerate the per

have been so numerous that further investiga-

Mr.. Warner, who was visited at his estab-

earnestly:

it has carried off, and is taking off every year,
for while many are dying apparently OF Paral,,
ysis 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 l 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 ?'
A prominent professor in New Orleans
medical college was lecturing before h1S class
on the subject of Bright'S disease. lie had
various fluids under microscopic analysis and
was showing the students what the indlca-
tions of this terrible malady were. And
now, gentlemen. he said, as we have seen
the unhealthy indications 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 a trembling voice he said :
Gentlemen, have made painful discovery;
have Brights disease Of the Kidneys And
in less than year he was dead. The slight
est indications of any kidney difficulty should
be enough to strike terror to any one"
" You know of Dr.. Henion'S case Z"
YES have both read and heard Of it,"
cit is very wonderful, is it not 2
mo more so than great many others that
have come to my notice as having been cured
by the same means"
:" You believe then that Brights disease
can be cured {"
II know it can know it from my own
and the experience of thousands OF prominent
persons who were given up to die by both
their physicians and friends"

words would have proved true if l had not

Dr. Henion was cured fire gears ago and IS
aveU and attending to his professional duties
to-day in this city. The standing of Dr.. Hen
ion, Mr.. Warner and Dr.. baltimore in the
community is beyond question, and the..state-
ments they make cannot for moment be
doubted. Dr. Henion'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, but that it can
be cured if taken in time.
