element, which the published letter
of DR.. r. A. Gum, which appeared
| in the papers yesterday, has occa-
| stoned. The prominence of the doc
| tor and the unusual nature of the
latter have both tended to add inter
| est to the subject and make it really
| the talk of the town.
Icalled upon DR.. Gum at his resi-
| dence, No. l24 West Forty-seventh
street, Yesterday afternoon. | found
| the reception room crowded, and it
| was only after an hours waiting that
/ succeeded in obtaining an inter
view. Il
DR.. Gum is a distinguished-lo look
ing man. and impressed me at once
by his manly bearing and air of sin
ceritv. i took the seat he courteous
" offered me, and said:
Are Won aware, doctor, of the
,commotion your letter has caused?"
Dr. Gum smiled, and replied:
Things out of the ordinury usually
cause comment. 1t is not common
thing for physicians to endorse and
cordially recommend medicines other
than those it the Materia Medica
History is full of instances of scien-
fists 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 today. l hope have the
manhood and courage to be true to
my convictions. and that is why | so
openly and unhesitatingly indorse
Warmers Safe Cure as being the
greatest of modern discoveries for
the cure of diseases which have baf-
fled the highest skill of the medical
profession"
| was impressed with the earnest
ness of the doctor, and saw that he
meant every word that he said.
How long have you known of this
remedy. doctor?" l asked.
Nearly ten years. he replied,
MY attention was originally called
to the Safe Cure by serious case of
bright's disease. which was consider
ed hopeless. and yet. much to my
surprise. under its use the patient
recovered. l have tried it in other
cases since then constantly, and my
original faith in its power has been
confirmed. | have seen patients re-
cover from inflammation of the blad
der. gravel and bright's disease when
all other treatment had failed, and |
have found it especially efficient in
all female troubles"
Can You specify any particular
cases. doctor?" | asked.
That is delicate thing TO do"
the doctor replied; but, as | always |
keep written record of my eases,
can accommodate YOU
Thereupon the doctor opened his |
desk and produced his record book. |
Turning over the leaves he said:
Here is a case of a gentleman who
was a great sufferer from inflamma-
ton of the bladder of long standing. |
He had consulted n number Of ply
sicians 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 bet
ter from the start. and in n few
weeks was entirely cured"
The doctor turned a few pages
further and then said:
Here is another case. 1t is that
of a gentleman who had frequent at
lacks of renal calculi, which. as YOU
know, is gravel forming in the kid
news. 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 eX-
claimed:
Here is most remarkable case.
1t is that of lady who had suffered |
some time from Bright's disease.
She became enciente, and about the
fourth month suddenly became
blind. had commissions and finally
fell into a state of coma. caused by
uremic or kidney poison. Several
physicians who saw her said she
could not live, and in this view / fully
concurred. As she could still swal-
low i said, as last resort, that they
might try Warmers Safe Cure. They
did SO. and to the surprise of every
one she recovered. She has since
given birth to living child, and is
perfectly we'll"
Those are certainly most wonder
full eases, DOCTOR" l said, land while
/ do not for a moment question their
authenticity, | would consider it
great favor if you would give me
their names. think the Importance
of the subject would fully justify it,
.'1n the interests of sufferers ]
think you are correct" DR.. Gum
finally observed after moments
thought. Both the lady and her
husband are so rejoiced, so grateful
over her recovery that / know she is
only too glad to have others hear of
it. The lady is Mrs. Eames, wife of
the well-known costumer. She was
