Y-, is of so strikiig a nature, and e nanates from ao reliable a source, that is herewith re-published eLtire. In addition to the valuable matter it con tains, it will be found exceedingly in teres tin^. To the Editor of the Democrat a nd Chronicle: . g«a : _My inotivi s for the publica tion of the'most unusual statements which follow are, 6: st, gratitude for the fact tbat I have 1 een saved from a most horrible death, and, secondly, a desire 4o warn all who read this state ment against some of the most deceptive influences by which they have ever been surrounded. It iB a fact that to day thousands of people are within a foot of the grave and they do not know it To tel! how I was caught away from just this position and to warn others against nearing it, arc my ob jects in this communication. On the firetday of June, 1881, I lay at my residence in thii* city surrouDd ed bv mv friends and waUing for my death Heaven only knows the agony I then endured, for words can never describe it. And yet, if a few years previous any one bad told mc that was to be brought so low, and by so terrible a disease, I should have scoffed at the idea. I bad always been un commonly strong and healthy, bad weighed over 200 pounds and hardly knew, in my own experience, what pain or sickness were. \ ery many people who will read this statement realize at times that tbey arc unusually tired and cannot account for it They feci dull and indefinite pains in various parts of the body and do not understand it. Or they are exceedingly hungry one day and entirely without appetite the next. This was just the way 1 felt when the relentless malady which bad fastened itself upon me first began Still I thought it was nothing ; that probably I bad taken a cold which would soon past away. Shortly after this I noticed a doll, and at times a neuralgic, pain in my bead, but as it woald come one day and be gone the next, I paid but little attention to it. However, my stomach was out of order and my food often failed to digest, caosing at times great inconvenience Yet I bad no idea, even as a physician tbat these things meant anything serious or that a monstrousdisease wa.- beeoming fixed upon roe. Candidly, 1 thought I was suffering from Malaria and so doctored myself accordingly. But I got no better. I next noticed a peculiar color and odor about the fluids j was passing—also that there were large quantities one day and very little the next, and that a persistent frotb and aenra appeared upon tbc surface, and a sediment settled in the bottom And yet I did not realize my danger, for, indeed, seeing these symptoms continually, I finally became accustom ed to them, and my suspicion was wholly disarmed by the fact that I had no pain in the affected organs or in their vicinity. Why I should have been so blind I cannot understand. There is a terrible future for all physical neglect, and impending dauger always brings a person to his senses even though it may then be too late. I realized, at last, my critical condition and aroused myself to overcome it. And, Ob! how bard I tried ! I con sulted the best medical skill in the land. I visited all the prominent mineral springs in America and traveled from Maine to California. Still 1 grew worse. No two physicians agreed aa to my malady. One said 1 was troubled with spinal irritation; another, nervous prostration ; another, malaria; another, dispepsia; another, heart disease ; another, general debili ty ; another, congestion of the base of the brain ; and so on through a long list of common diseases, the symptoms of all of which I really had. In this way several yoars passed, during all of which time I was steadily growing worse. My condition bad really become pitiable. The slight symptoms I at first experi enced were developed into terrible and constant disorders—the little twigs of Ciin bad grown into oaks of agonv y weight bad been reduced from 297 to 130 pounds. My life was a torture to myself and friends. I could retain DO food apon my stomach, aud lived wholly by injections. I was a living mass of pain. My pulse was uncon trollable. In my agony I frequntly fell upon the floor, convuliively clutched the carpet, aud prayed for death. Moiphine bad little or no effect in deaacnlng the pain. For six days and oigbts I bad the death hiccoughs con stantly. My uriue was filled with tube costs and albumen. I struggling with Bright's Disease of the Kidneys in its la«t stages. While suffering thus I received » call from my pastor, the Ilcv. Dr Foote, rector of St. Paul's Church of this city. J felt tbat it was our last Interview, but in tbej course of con versation bo mentioned a remedy of which I had beard much liut bad never ■aed. Dr. Foote detailed to tae the many remarkable cures which bad come uoder his observation, by means of this leuwljr, and urged me to try it. As a practicing physician, and a graduate of the schools , I ahcrisbed the prejudice both natural and common with all r gular practioners, and derided the idea of any medicine outaide the regular ctaonols being the least beneficial. So solicitous, howev er was Dr. Foote, tbat I finally prom ised I would waive my prejudice and try the remedy he so highly recom mended. I began its use on the Ist day of June and took it according to directions. At first it sickened me ; but this I thought was a good sign for me in my debilitated condition. 1 continued to take it ; the sicken fag s< nsation departed and I was able to reta n food upon iny stomach. In a few days I noticed a decided change ior the better as also did my wife and friends. My hiccoughs ceas ed and 1 experienced less pain than formerly. I was so rejoiced at this Improved condition that, upon what I bad believ.d but a few days before to be my dying bed, I vowed, in the presence of my family and fr.ends, should I recover, I would both pub licly and privately make known this remedy for the good of humanity, wherever and whenever I had an opportunity. 1 also determined that I would give a course of lectures in the Corinthian Academy of Music of , ttiis city, stating in full the sympton.B and almost hopelessness of my disease and the remarkable means by which I have been saved. My improvement was constant from that time, and iu less than threa months I had gained •20 pounds in flesh, became entireiy j free from pain and I believe I owe j mv life and present condition wholly to Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Care, the remedy which I used. Since ray recovery I have thorough lv re-investigated tne subject of kidney difficulties and Bright's disease, and the truths developed' are astounJing I therefore state, deliberately, and as a pbvsician. tbat I believe that more than one-half the deaths which occur in America are caused by lirigh s i disease of the kidneys. This may i sound like a r> ah s atemei t. but I am prepared to fully verify it. Bright s j disease has no' distinctive symptoms of its own, (indeed, it often deveiopts : without any paiu whatever in the j kidneys or their vicinity), but has the , symptoms of nearly every other known complaint. Hundreds of people die i dailv, whose burials are authorised by I a physician's certificate of "Heart Dis ease." "Apoplexy," "Paralysis," "Spi nal Complaint," Rheumatism," "Pneu monia," and other common complaints, when in reality it was Bright's Disease of the Kidneys. Few physicians, and fewer people, realise the extent of this disease or its dangerous and insidious nature. It steals into the system like a thief, manifests its presence by the commonest symptoms, and fastens itself upon the constitution before the victim is aware. It is nearly as her editary as consumption, quite as com mon and fully as fatal. Entire fami lies, inheriting it from their ancestors, have died, and yet none of the number knew or realized the mysterious power which was removing them Instead of common symptoms it often shows none whatever, !.ut brings death sud denly, and as Bucb is usually supposed to be heart disease. As one who has suffered, and knows by bitter exper ience what be says, I implore every one who reads these words not to ne glect the slightest symptoms of Kidney difficulty. Certain agony and possi ble death will be the sure result of such neglect, and no one can afford to hazard such chances. I am aware that such an unqualified statement as this, coming from me, known as I am throughout the entire land as a practitioner and lecturer, will arouse the surprise aud possible nnimosity of the medical profession and astonish all with whom I am ac quainted. but I make the foregoing statement based upon facts which I arn prepared to produce and truths which I can substantiate to the letter. The welfare of those who may possi bly be sufferers such as I was, is an ample Inducement for me to take the step I have, and if I can successfully warn others from the dangerous path in which I once walked, I am willing to endure all professional «nd personal consequences.
