A HARD FIGHT
THE STORY OF A FAILURE

The writer was called to the phone by a prominent attorney of San Fran cisco who said that friend of his was dying of Bright's disease. and that if we could dU anything to send the treatment and a physician Both were sent The doctor phoned back that the patient was at, the end of years fight with chronic Bright's Disease and was almost q skeleton. and. was In coma, and that the priests had admin istcred the last rites, and that the at tending physicians had told the patients wife that 1t was only ques- ton of hours and he declared with considerable spirit that he had prac- ticalIy been called in to sign the death certificate The patient. a San Fran cisco business man. was in charge Of the nurses. They said that nothing had passed into or out of the patients stomach for twenty-four hours: that it had ceased to act-would not hold pep tonizcd milk-and that they were wait ing for the end. Our consulting physician did not think that there was one chance in thousand. but started a hard fight for than chance. Jumping into d carriage. he went to Wakelee X Co.'S. procured a high twenty-inch tube and the necessary adjuncts and returned for an all nights fight to keep the patient alive. After four hours with emissions through the high tube the impacted feces were removed, and. as the stomach had almost ceas- ed functioninG. the patient was fed and given both treatment and food per recturn. The food and treatment were administered and withdrawn every three hours. night and day. The patient was given an alcohol and emulsion rub alternately every three hours. He was given no food by the stomach for ten days except a little champagne and cracked ice. The sec ond day he began to move a little. The fourth day he was beginning to clear mentally. In two weeks his stomach began to accept chicken and solid foods In d month he was walk ing around the room, and in two months (contrary to the strenuous ad- vice of the physlcian) he insisted on taking southern trip. He was not as strong as he thought and suffered relapse. The physician was tele- graphed for and went south to attend and bring him home. but the trip and consequent relapse was so serious that .the patient expired on arrival in san Francisco.
 This was a battle against tremen- dous odds. and it is our belief that it would have been won if the patient had followed the physician's advice and given up the trip until he was stronger
 The attorney mentioned who called us up by phone was the Hon. Barclay Henley. the exmember of congress and well-known lawyer of San Fran cisco. His offices are in the Pacific building on Market street and he will doubtless confirm these facts to any one who may be interested. We re- fer to this instance and his name in connection therewith without his con sent. We could hardly afford to do this if the above was not strictly true.
 We consider the treatment that this physician used in this case to aid the Renal Compound as so important that it was at our request written up in detail giving the various prescriptions and formulae. We will mail it to who may have critical cases like the above.
 Bright's Disease is now curable in great majority of all cases by the new emollient treatment-Fulton's Renal Compound It may be had in your city of all druggists.
