EXCITEMENT IN ROCHESTER,.
The Commotion Caused by the
Statement of a Physician.

DR.. J, B. Henion, who is well-known
not only in Rochester but in nearly
every part of America, sent an ex-
tended article to this paper, lew
days since which was duly published,
detailing his remarkable experience
and rescue from what seemed to be
certain death. 1t would be impos-
sible to enumerate the personal en-
quiries which have been made at our Of
fee 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 representa-
tive of this paper called on DR.. Hen
ion, at his residence, when the follow
ing interview occurred: THAT article
of yours, Doctor, has created quite a
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 ad
ditiOnal ones. was brought so low
by neglecting the first and most simple
symptoms l did not think l was
sick. 1t is true had frequent head
aches; felt tired most of the time;
could eat nothing one day and was
ravenous the next; fell dull pains and
my stomach was out of order, but |
did not think it meant anything Sc
rlous.
"The medical profession has been
treating symptoms instead OF diseas-
es for years, and it is high time it
ceased. The symptoms l have Just
mentioned or any unusual action or
irritation of the water channels indi-
cate the approach of kidney disease
more than acough announces thecOm-
ing 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 diseases
are torturing people to-day. which IN
reality are Bright's disease in some OF
it's many forms. 1t is Hydra-dead-
ed monster, and the slightest symp-
! toms should strike terror to everyone
who has them. l can look back and
recall hundreds of deaths which ply
sicians declared at the time were caus-
ed by paralysis, apoplexy, heart dis
ease, pneumonia, malarial fever and
other common complaints which |
see now were caused by Brighc's dis
ease"
And did all these cases have SIM
pie symptoms at tirst?'
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 helping others to see
the facts and their possible danger
also"
Mr.. Warner, who was visited at his
establishment on n. St. Paul street,
spoke very earnestly:
at is true that Bright's disease
had increased wonderfully, and we
find, by reliable statistics, that from
20 to 80 it's growth was over
$50 per cent. Look at theprOminent
men it has carried off, and is taking
off every year, for while many aredying
apparently ofparalysis and apoplexy
they are really victims of kidney dis
order, which causes heart disease
paralysis, apoplexy, etc. Nearly
every week the papers record the
death of some prominent man IRON
this scourge. Recently, however, the
increase has been checked and at,
tribute this to the general use Of my
remedy"
"Do you think many people are at
flicted with it to-day who do not
realize it. Mr.. Warner"

Bright's disease. He had variou
