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 to
the subject and make it really the talk OF
the town
called upon DR.. Gum at his residence,
No. 1874 West Forty seventh street, yester-
day afternoon. found the reception room
crowded, and it was only after an hours
waiting that l succeeded in obtaining an
intervisw.
Dr. 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 caused,"
Dr. Gum smiled, and replied: "Things
out of the ordinary usually cause comment
1t is not q common thing for physicians to
indorse and cordially recommend medicines
other than those in the Mdteria Medica 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
openly and unhesitatingly indorse War
ner's Safe Cure as being the greatest OF
modern discoveries for the cure of diseases
which have baf1led the highest skill Of the
medical profession.
l 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, doctor1" asked
"Nearly ten years." he replied. my at
tention was originally called to the Safe
Cure by a serious case Of Bright's disease
which was considered hopeless, and yet
much to my surprise, under it's use the
patient recovered. have tried it in other
cases since then constantly, and my origi.
nal faith in its power has been confirmed.
Ihave 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
doctorl" asked.
THAT Is delicate thing to do" the doc
tor replied; "but, as l always keep writ
ten record OF my cases. can accommodate
you"
Thereupon the doctor opened his desl
and produced his record book. Turning
over the leaves he said:
"Here is case of a gentleman who wa,
great sufferer from Inflammation of the
bladder of long standing He had consult
ed number Of ply sicians without benefit
When first consulted l 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 said:
"Here is another case. 1t is that of
gentleman who had frequent attacks O.
renal calculi, which, as you know, is grave
forming in the kidneys. He had nevel
been able to prevent these formations, bu
after an unusually severe attack / recon
mended him to try the Safe Cure, which
ne did, and although it is three years sine,
he took the remedy, he has never had al
attack since"
The doctor continued to turn the leaves O
his book, and suddenly exclaimed
"Here is most remarkable case. 1t 1
