1t would be difficult to measure the in.
terest and comment, not to say excitement,
which the published letter of DR.. r. A.
Gum, which appeared in the papers yester
day, has occasioned The prominence OF
the doctor and the unusual nature of the
letter have both tended to add interest tt
the subject and make it really the talk OF
the town.
l called upon Dr. Gum at his residence
No. 1874 West Furty-seventh street, yester-
day afternoon. found the reception room
crowded, and it was only after an hours
waiting that l succeeded in obtaining an
interview
DIR. Gum is a distinguished looking man,
and impressed me at once by his manly
bearing and air of sincerity. / took the
seat he courteously offered me, and said:
Are you aware, doctor, of the commo-
ton your letter has ausedl"
DR.. Gum smiled, and replied: "Things
out OF the ordinary usually cause comment
1t is not common thing for physicians to
indorse and cordially recommend medicines
other than those in the Mdtcril Medicd. His
tory Is full OF instances of scientists who
have Endorsed discoveries they believe to
be valuable, and have been denounced for
so doing, and yet these same discoveries
are blessing the world to-day. l hope

TO my convictions, and that is why / 80

ner's Safe Cure as being the greatest Of
modern discoveries for the cure of diseases
which have haffled the highest skill of the
medical profession"
was impressed with the earnestness Of
the doctor, and saw that he meant every
word that he said
"How long have you known of this rem.
edy, doctor." | asked.
"Nearly ten years." he replied "My at
tention was originally called to the Safe
Cure by serious case of Bright's disease,
which was considered hopeless, and yet
much to my surprise, under its use the
patient recovered have tried it in other
cases since then constantly, and nv origi-
nal faith in its power has been confirmed.
lhave seen patients recover from infam-
nation of the bladder, gravel and Bright's
disease when all other treatment had failed.
and have found it especially efficient in
all female troubles"
"Can yon specify any particular cases,
doctor" l asked.
"rhat Is delicate thing to do" the doc.
tor replied; "but, as l always keep q writ
ten record OF my cases, / can accommodate
you"
Thereupon the doctor opened his desk
and produced his record book. Turning
over the leaves he said:
"Here is case of gentleman who was
great sufferer from inflammation of the
bladder of long standing. He had consult
ed number Of physicians without benefit.
When first consulted / myself tried the
usual methods of treatment, but without
success, and finally advised him to try
Warmers Safe Cure. He felt better from
the start, and in few weeks was entirely
cured"
The doctor turned few pages further,
and then sad
"Here is another case. 1t is that of a
gentleman who had frequent attacks Of
renal calcud, which, as you know, is gravel
forming in the kidneys. He had never
been able to prevent these formations, but
after an unusually severe attack l recon-.
mended him to try the Safe Cure, which
he did, and, although it is three years since
he took the remedy, he has never had an
attack since"
The doctor continued to turn the leaves OF
his book, and suddenly exclaimed:
Here is most remarkable case. It is
that of lady who had suffered for some
time from Brights disease She became
encente, and about the fourth month sud.
denly became blind, had commissions and
finally fell into state of coma, caused by
uremic or kidney poison. Several physi
clans who saw her said she could not live.
and in this view fully concurred. AS she
could still swallow said, as last resort
that they might try Warmers Safe Cure
They did so, and to the surprise of everv
one she recovered. She has since given
birth to living child, and is perfectly well. !"
Those are cextainly most wonderful
cases, DOCTOR" l said, 'and while l do
not Tor moment question their anthem
ITCHY should consider it a great favor if
you would give me their names. / think
The Importance of the subject would fully
justify it"
"ln the interest Of other sufferers think
you are correct" DR.. Gum finally observed.
after moments thought "Both the lady
and her husband are SO rejoiced, so CRATE
full, over her recovery that / know she is
only too glad to have others hear it. The
lady Is Mrs Eames, wife of the well known
costumer. She was not only restored, but
is in perfect health to day"
/ thanked the doctor for his courteous
reception, for the valuable information i'm.
parted, and feel assured that his generous
and humane nature will prevent him from
feeling other than glad at seeing this inter-
view published for the benefit of suffering
