The Commotion Caused by the State
ment of Il Physician,

recently republShed IN TINS paper anu
was a subject Of much comment. That
the article 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 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 inquiries which have been
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 representa-
tive Of this paper called on DIR. Henion,
at his residence, when the following in
teryiew occurred: "That article of
yours, doctor, has created quite whirl.
wind. Are the statements about the
terrible condition You were in, and the
way you were rescued such as you can

"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 its many
forms. 1t is a hydra-headed monster,
and the slightest symptoms 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 We're caused by Bright's dis
ease,
"And did all these cases have simple
| 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 am helping others to see the facts
and their possible danger ALSO"
Mr.. Warner, who was visited at his
establishment on North st. Paul street,
spoke very earnestly. ft
1t is true that Bright's disease had
increased wonderfully, and we find, by
reliable statistics, that from 20 to 80 its
growth was over $50 per cent. Look at
the prominent men il has carried off,
and is taking off every year, for while
many are dying apparentlyeof paralysis
and apoplexy, they are really victims of
kidney disorder, which causes heart
disease, paralysis, apoplexy, &c. 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 re-
alize it, Mr.. Warner?n
"a prominent professor in a New
Orleans medical college was lecturing
before his class on the subject of Bright's
disease. He had various fluids under
4 microscopic analysis and was showing
the students what the indications of this
terrible malady were. And, now, gem
tlemen,' he said, las we have seen the
unhealthy indications, | will show you
how il appears in u 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 Bright's 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.
