An unusual article from the Rochester,
N ", Democrat and Chronicle, was re-
Gently republished In this paper and was a
subject of much comment. That the ar
ticle caused even more commotion in
Rochester, 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 par or, few days since, which was
duly published, detailing his remarkable
experience and rescue from what seemed
to be certain death. 1t would be impossi-
BILE to enumerate the personal enquiries
which have been made at our Office as to
the validity of the article, but they have
been SO numerous that further investiga-
ton of the subject was deemed necessary.
With this end in view representative
of this paper called on DR.. Henion, at his
residence, when the 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,''
Every one of them and many additional
ones. was brought so low by neglecting

ments.'
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, Doctorr'
Precisely. Thousands of diseases are
torturing people to-day, which in reality
are Brights 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 dis
ease, pneumonia malarial fever and other
common complaints which see now were
caused by Bright's disease"

symptoms at fiIstl''
Every enc 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 am helping others to see the facts
and their possible danger also"
Mr.. Warner, who was visited at his es-
Enlistment on N. St Paul street, spoke
very earnestly;
1T is true that Brights disease had in
creased wonderfully. and we find, by re-
liable statistics, that from 10 to so 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 APP
oplexy. they are really victims of kidney
disorder, which causes heart disease, par
alysis, apoplcxy, etc. Nearly every week
the papers record the death of some prom
inent man from this scourge. Recently,
however, the increase has been checked

"Do you think many people are afflicted
with it to-day who do not realize it, Mr..
Warnerr'
"a p prominent professor in New Or
leans medical college was lecturing before
his class on the sub. ect of Bright's disease.
He had various fluids under microscopic
analysis 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 1t appears in a 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 said: Gentlemen,
hare made painful discovery; l have
Brights disease of the kidncys; and in les
| than year he was Gead. Tho slightest
indications OF any kidney difficulty should
lie enough to strike terror to any one"
"Yol know of Dr. Hcnion's caser'
eyes have both rcad and heard Of it."
1T is very wonderful, is it notr1
'No more SO than great many others
that have come to my notice as having
been cured by the same means"
