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

even more commotion in Rochester,
as the following from the same paper
shows: =
DIR. 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 a
few days ago, which was duly pub
lished, detailing his remarkable ex-
perience 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 in
vestigation of the subjectwas deemed
necessary.
With this end in view a representa-
tive of this paper calledon DR.. Henion
at his residence on Andrews Street,
when the following interview oc-
Cured: "That article of yours,
Doctor, has created quite a whirl-
wind. Are the statements about the
terrible condition you we're in, and
the way you were rescued, such as
you can sustain"

ditional ones. l was brought so low

simple symptoms. l did not think l

quent headaches; felt tired most
9th time; could eat nothing one
day and was ravenous the next;
felt dull pains, and my stomach was
out OF order, but did not think it
meantanything serious. The medi-
cal profession has been treating
symptoms instead of diseases for
years, and it is high time it ceased.
Thesymptoms l have just mentioned,
or any unusual action or irritation
OF the water channels, indicate the
approach of kidney disease more
than cough announces the coming
of consumption. 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
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 dis
eases are torturing people to-day,
which in reality 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 were caused by paralysis,
apoplexy, heart disease, pneumonia,
malarial fever and other common
complaints, which 1 see now were
caused by Bright's disease"
"And did all these cases have sim
pie symptoms at frst?"

have been cured as I was by the
timely use of the same remedy.
am getting my eyes thoroughly
opened in this matter, and think 1
am helping others to see the facts
and their possible danger also" g.,
Mr.. Warner, who was visited at
his establishment on North St. Paul
Street, spoke very earnestly
"It is true that Brightis 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, and is taking
off every year; for while many are
dying apparently OF paralysis, and
apople1y, they are really victims of
kidney disorder, which causes
heart disease, paralysis, apoplexy,
etc. Nearly every week the pa
pers 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" 4
"Do you think many people are
afflicted with It to-day who do not
realize it2" @ N -
"a prominent professor, in a New
Orleans medical college, was lectur-
ing 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
mslsdy were. And now, gentlemen,
he said, as We have sean the I'M
healthy indications, 1 win 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
suddenly changed-his color and
command both left him and in a
trembling voice he Eaid: Gentle

tions of any kidney difficulty should |

"No more so than q great many
others that have come to my notice
