EXCITEMENT IN RocHEsTER
The commotIon Caused by the
Statement of a Physician


That the article caused even moro COM
motion in Rochester, 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 since
which was duly published, detailing his
remarkable experience and rescue from
what seemed to be certain death 1t
would be impossible TO enumerate the
personal enquiries which have been
made at our Office as to the validity of
the Article, but they have been so nu-
merous that further investigation of
the subject was deemed necessary.
With this end in view a represent
alive of this paper called on DIR.
Henion, at his residence, when the fol-
lowing interview occurred: That arti-
Gle of yours, Decor. 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 addi-
tiOnal ones. I was brought so low by
neglecting the first and most simple
symptoms. I did not think was sick.
1t is true I had frequent headaches;
felt tired most of the time; could eat
nothing one day and was ravenOus the
next; felt dull pains and my stomach
was out of order, but I did not think it
meant anything serious.
1.-THE medical profession has been
treating symptoms instead of diseases
for years, and it is high time it ceased.
The symptoms have Just mentioned or
any unusual action or irritation of the
water channels indicate the approach of
kidney disease more than a cough an
nounces the coming of consumption.
We do not treat the cough, bnt try to
help the lungs. We should not waste
Our time trying to relieve the headache,
pains about the body or other symp-
toms, 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 diseases
are torturing people to day, which in
reality are Bught'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. I can look 6ack and recall
hundreds of deaths which physicians
declared at the time were caused by
paralysis, apoplexy, heart disease, pneu-
monia, malarial fever and other COM
mon complaints, which see now were
caused by Bright's disease"
s.And did all these cases have simple
SYMPTOMS at first ?"
'.EYery one of them, and might have
been cured as 1 was by the timely use
of the same remedy. L am getting my
eyes thoroughly opened in this matter
and think 1 am helping others to see
the facts and their possible danger
also"
Mr.. Warner, who was visited at his
establishment on N. st. Paul St., spoke
very earnestly:
sit is true that Bright's disease has in
creased wonderfully, and we find, by re-
liable 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 paraly-
sis and apoplexy, they are really vic
Tins of kidney disorders which cause
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 I attribute this to the
general use Of my remedy"
"Do you think many people are
afflicted with it to-day who do not real
lie it, Mr.. WarnerY'
"a prominent professor in a New Or
leans medical college was lecturing be-
fore. 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 malady were. And now,
gentlemen, he said,' 'as we have seen
the unhealthy indications, I will show
you how it 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, have made pam
full discovery; have Bright's disease of
the kidneys;' and in less than a year he
was dead. The slightest indications of
any kidney difficulty should be enough
to strike terror to any one"
''You know of DR.. Henion's case?"
eyes, have both read and heard of
it."
sit is very wonderful is it not ?"
ssNo more SO than a great many 9TH
ers that have come to my notice as
having been cured by the same means. u
You believe then that Bright's dis
ease can be cured 2"
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"
You speak of your own experience,
what was it?''
"a fearful one. I had felt Ianguid
and untitled for business for years. But
I did not know what allied me. When,
however, I found it was kidney difficult
ty I thought there was little hope and
so did the doctors. I have since learned
that one of the physicians of this city
pointed me out to gentleman on the
| street one day, saying: There goes a
man who will 10 dead within year. ]
believe his words would have proved
true if I had not fortunately used the
remedy now known as Warmers Safe
Cure"
did you make chemical analysis
of the case of Mr.. II. II. Warner some
three years ago, Doctor?" was asked
alysts of the State Board of Health.
'sYes, sir"
''What did this analysis show you ?''

''Did you think Mr.. Warner could re-
