was recently republished in this pa
per and was subject Of much com
ment. That the article caused ever
more commOtion in Rochester, the
following from the same paper
shows:
DR.. j. B. HeniOn, who is well-lnown
not only in Rochester but in nearly
every part of America, sent an ex.
tended article to this paper 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 enum crate the personal en-
quiries 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 represen-
tative Of this paper called on DR..
Henion, at his residence, when the
following interview occurred: "That
article of yours, Doctor, has created
quite a whirlwind. Are the state
ments 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. l was brought so
low by neglecting the first and
most simple symptoms. l did not
think / was sick. Il is true L 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 did not think it meant
anything serious.
"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 that a cough announces
the coming of consumption. We do
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 symp-
toms, but go directly to the kidneys,
the source of most OF the 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 a Hydra |
headed monster, and slightest symp-
toms should strike terror 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
| see now were caused by Bright's
disease"
"And did all these cases have SIM
pie symptoms at first"
"EVery one of them, and might /
have been cured as | was by the
timely use of the same remedy. l am
getting my eyes thoroughly opened
in this matter and think l am helping
others to see the facts and their pos
sible danger also,"
Mr.. Warner, who was visited at his
establishments on n. st. Paul street,
spoke very earnestly:
cit is true that Bright's disease has
increased wonderful, and we find, by
reliable statistics, that from 20 to 80
its growth was over $50 per cent.
Look at the prominent men 1T has

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 | at

afflicted with it to-day who do not
realize it, Mr.. Warner?"
ga prominent professor in New
Orleans medical college was lectur-
ing before his class onthe ubject of
Bright's disease. He had various
fluids under microscopic analysis and
was showing the students what the
Indications of this terrible malady Y
we're. And now, gentleman he I
said, 'as we have seen the unhealthy
will show you how it
appears in q state of perfect

iuid TO the usual test. AS he watched &
