widespread Commotion Caused by the
Terrible Confession Of q Physician.

Gently, from the Rochester, N. Y, Democrat
and Chronicle, created a 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 an extended article to this
paper a few days ago which was duly pub
lished, 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 a 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 the statements about the terri
bic condition you were in, and the way you
were rescued, such as you can sustainr

"This, then, Is what you meant when you
said that more than one-half the deaths
which occur arise from Brights disease, 10

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
Brights disease"
And did all these cases have simple
symptoms at first.n at
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 l am help
ing others 10 see the facts and their possible
danger also.n
Mr. Warner, who was visited at his estab-
ment on North st. Paul street, spoke very
earnestly.
at is true that Bright's disease had in
creased wonderfully, and we find, by relia-
BILE statistics that from 20 to 80, it's 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 itl'
" A prominent professor in New Orleans
medical college was lecturing before his
class on the subject of Brights disease. He
bad 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 / 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 suddenly changed--his
color and command both left him and in
trembling voice he said: Gentlemen,
have made painful discovery; have
Br1ghts disease of the kidneys And in
less than year he was dead. The slightest
Indications Of any kidney difficulty should
be enough to strike terror to any one."
O. You know of DR.. Henion's casel"
Yes, | have both read and heard of it."
q" IL is very wonderful, is it mott"
No more SO than great many others
shat have come to my notice as having been
cured by the same means"
"You believe then that Bright's disease
can be curedW
l know it can. know e from my own
and the experience OF thousands of promi-
nent persons who were given up to die by
both their physicians and friends"
You speak OF your own experience;
what was it,"
"a fearful one. l had felt languid and
untitled for business for years. But did
not know what allied me- When, however,
found it was kidney difficulty l thought
there was little hope and so did the doctors.
l have since learned that one of the physi-
clans of this city pointed me out to gen
tleman on the street one day, saying.
There goes a man who will be dead within
year, l believe his words would have
proved true if had not providentially used
the remedy now known as Warmers Safe
Cure.n
"Did you make chemical analysis of the
case of Mr.. H. FL. Warner, some three years
ago, Doctorsn was asked DR.. S. A Latti-
more, one of the analysts of the state board
of health
ayes, sir"
What did this analysis show you?"
I" A serious disease OF the kidneys.n
"Did you think Mr. Warner could recov-
era" 's
"No, sir. did not think it possible"
"Do you know any thing about the reme-
dy which cured him!"
81 have chemically analysed it and find
It pure and harmless"

Henion, Mr.. Warner and DR.. baltimore in
the community is beyond question, and the
statements they make cannotfor 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.
Says an English paper: A gentle
man was trying a horse one day in
company with the owner, profess
sional jockey Having driven him
mile or two the gentleman, who noticed
that he pulled pretty hard, requiring
constant watching and steady rein,
said: do you think that is Just the
horse for lady to drivs?' "Well,
SIR answered the jockey, II must
confess | shouldn't want to marry the
woman that could drive that horsel"
