?'o the Editor of tfie Democrat and Citron-
Sir; My moty vesjtor the publication
o the most unsual statements which fol
low are, first, gratitude for the fact that
I have leen saved from a most horrible
death, and, secondly, a desire to warn
all who read Jtlxis statement against tome
of the niosVlecejptive influences by which
they?iaveever oeen surrounded. It is a
fact thaVto-day thousands of people are
within a. foot ot the grave aiu they know
it not.' To tell how I was caught away,
from just' tins position' and to warn oth
ers against hearing ijf,' are my objects in
this communication.
On the first day of June 1881, I lay
at my residence in this city surrounded
by my friends and waiting 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 had told me that I M as to be brought
so low, and by so terrible disease, I
.should have scoffed at the idea. I. had
always been uncommonly strong and
healthy, and weighed over 200 pounds
and hardly knew, in my own experience
what pain Or sickiiesa were. Very many
people who will read, "this statement re
aljlze at imes that they are unusually
tired and cannot account for it. They
feel dull and indefinite pains in various
parts of the body and do not understand
it. Or they are exceedingly hungry one
day, entirely without appetite the next.
This was just the way I felt when the re
lentless malady which had fastened itself
upon me first began. Still I thought it
was nothing; that probably 1 had taken
cold which would soon pass away. Short
ly after this 1 noticed a dull, and at times
a neuralgic, pain in my head, but as it
would come one day and.be gone the
next. I paid but little attention .to it.
llowever my stomach failed to' digest,
causing at times great inconvenience.
Yet I had no idea, even as a physician,
that theses-things meant anything seri
ous or that a monstrous disease was be
coming fixed, upon me. Candidly, 1
thought I was suffering from Malaria
and eo doctored myself accordingly.
But I got no letter. I next noticed a
rmliar color and odor alout the fluids
was passing also that there were
large quantities one day and very little
the next, and that a persistent froth and
scum appeared upon the surface, and a
sediment settled in the bottom. And
yet I did not realize my danger, for, in
deed, seeing these symptoms continually,
I finally lecame accustomed 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 un
derstand. There is a terrible future for all phy
sical neglect, and impending danger al
ways brings a person to his senses even
though it may then be too late. I real
ized, at last, my critical condition and
aroused myself to overcome it. And,
Oh! how hard I tried! I consulted the
leat medical skill in the land. I visited
all the prominent mineral springs in A
nierica and traveled from Maine to Cat
ifornia. Still I grew worse," "No two
physicians agreed as to my malady. One
said I was troubled with spinal irritation;
another, nervous prostration ; another,
malaria ; another, dyspepsia $ another.
Heart disease ' another, general debility ;
; another, congestion of the base of the
ijrairij and so on through a long list
of common diseases the symptoms of
all of which I really had. In this way
several years passed during all of which
time I was steadily growing worse. My
condition had really liecome pitiable,
fjiij slight symptoms I at first experi-
ehced Were developed into terrible and
constant' discrdpj the little twigs of
pafri fyad? grown to oakis of agony. My
weight' had-been" 'reduced from 207 to
"130-pounds. ! My' life was a torture to
myself and friends. I could retain no
food upon my stotnach, and lived wh61Iy
ijy'irijections. I. Was a living mass of
pain.i,; My pulse was uncontrollable. "In
y agony I frequently fell lipb'u the
floor, 'convulsively clutched the carpet,
and prayed for death.1 Morphine had
Jittle or jio 'effect in deadening the' paiii,
for six days fnd nights I had thedeath
premonitory "hrccoughs jconstantly. My'
men. I waj struggling with Bj-ighftf
Disease in its last stages. -
1 "While suffering thus I received, a call
from my pastor, the Rev. Dr. Foote;
rector 6'f 'St Paul's Church, of this city.
J, felt 'that it was our last interview', but
in the course of conversation he men
tioned a remedy of which I had heard
much but had never used. Dr. Foote.
detailed to me j the many remarkable
cures which, had come under his obser
vation, by. means of this remedy, and
urged me to try. it As a practicing
physician and a graduate of the schools,
I cherished the prejudice both natural
and common ;'ith all regular practition
ers, and derided j the "i'l,c of ny Utfdi
cine outside the regular channels being
the least benificial. So solicitous, how
ever, was Dr. Foote, that I finally prom
ised I would waive my prejudice and
try the remedy he so highly recom
mended. I began its use 'on the
1st day of June and took it according
to directions. At first it sick4ned me ;
but this I thought, was a good sign for
me in my debilitated condition. I con
tinued to take it ; tle, sickening fcgnsa
tion departed and J was able Jo retain
food upon my stojnael. In a fev days
I noticed a decided change top the letter
as also did my wife and. friends. My
hiccoughs ceasecj and 1 experienced less
pain than formerly. I was so ri'joiced
at this improved condition that, upon
what I had believed but a few days be
fore was my dying bed, I vowed, in the
presence of my family and friends, should
I recover I would publicly and private
ly make known this remedy for the good
of humanity, wherever and whenever I
had an opportnnity. I also determined
that I would give a course of lectures in
the Corinthian Academy of Music of
this city, stating in full the symptoms
and almost hopelessness of my disease
and the remarkable means by which I
have been saved. My improvement was
constant; From that time, and in less than
f tnree months l Had gained lib pounds in
tlesh, became entirely free from pain and
I believe I owe my life and present con
dition wholly to Warner's Safe Kidney
and Liver Cure, the remedy which I
used.
Since my recovery I have thoroughly
investigated the subject of kidney diffi
culties and Bright's disease, and the
truths developed are astounding. I
therefore state, deliberately and as a
phy sicitfttfc that I believe tha& more than
oiu;-hafdWie deaths which occur in A-
i merica are caused by Bl ight's disease of
the kidneys. This may. sound like a
rash statement, but I am prepared to
fully verify it Bright's disease has no
distinctive symptoms of its own, ( in
deed, it often develops without any pain
whatever in the 'kidneys or. their vicin
ity), but has the symptoms of nearly
every other known complaint Hun
dreds of people die dailv, whose burials
'are authorised by .v physician's certifi
cate of Heart; Disease, " Apoplexy,
44 Paralysis," " Pneumonia," and other
common complaints, when in reality it
was BrighVs Disease of the Kidneys.
Few physicians, and fewer people, real
ise the extent of this disease or its dan
gerous 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 hereditary as consumption, qu.ite as
common and fully as fatal. Entire fam
ilies, 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, but brings death suddenly,
and as such is usually supposed to be
heart disease. As one who has suflered,
and knows by bitter experience what
he says, I injplore every one who reads
these words not to neglect the slightest
symptoms of Kidney difficulty. Certain
agony and possible death will be Wre
result of such neglect: and no one can
afford to hazaid such chances.
l am aware that such an unqualified
statement as this, coming from me,
known as I am throughout the entire
land as a practitioner and lec turer, will
arouse the surprise and possible animos
ity of the medical profession and aston
ish all with whom I am acquainted, but
I mak4? the foregoing statements based
upon facts which I am prepared to pro
duce and truths which I can substantiate
o the letter. "The welfare of. those'whb
mav possibly be sufferers such as I was,
!is an ample inducement for nie to take
the tep I have, and if I can successfully
warn others from the dangerous path in
which I once walked, I am willing to en
dure all professional and personal con
sequences. J. B. HENION, M. D.

Correspondence.
Hanford, Cau Nov. 1, 18S2.
Maj. Adams Dear Sir: lion. It.
Meeker, his family and his brotha
Enoch's family arrived hef.e safely and
in good hethh t)y last night's train, and
are pleased with California at first sight
They had a pretty rough experienc3 with
old Neptune. The sea was very rough
allthe way, which played sad havoc
with their inwardness, but as is usual m
such cases the ludierousness of each oth
er's position produced much mirth which
tended to make the situation bearable.
J a
Tliy had a quick passage to San Fran-
isc9, arriving there Tuesday morning
just in time to catch jthe . south-bound
train. What they saw of San Francis
co did not impress them very favorably.
But the eagerness with which the little
fellows took in the situation would have
done your heart good. In one respect
they were hugely disappointed, and it
did not fail to show itself. Evidently
they expected that California was one
big orange, and when they failed to find
them hanging to every spar, a cluster on
every lamp post and ever peanut-boy's
basket was not filled $o repletion, their
chagrin was unbounded and their esti
mation of California muchly on the
down grade. The parties are all look
ing well and as soon as they can
get
their heads a little steady they will be
prepared to enjoy our sunshine. O My !
you ought to have seen the little fellows
dive into the grapes.
We congratulate you on the success of
the emperance issue in the Webfoot
country and hope soon to follow. The
work is-in its infancy here, bu.tj he ef
forts of the prohibitionists and tempe
rance people have given the cause a
boom, that has thrown King Alcohol
and his cohorts into an excitement that
is painful to contemplate, yet their or
ganization is perfect and only by a coun
ter organization can we hope for success.
In this county the organization is good
and dailv is being made more complete
and by the time another election comes
around, the temperance people expect
to carry the state by a power that is ir
resistibly. More anon.
Yours truly,
B. M. Watts.

Major Adams Dear Sir It has beeu
a lon time since I have written to you,
in fact not since I came down here.
Well, I came here last May and bought
an acre of land of Mr. Tinker where the
new summer resort, 44 L.cng Beach" has
been laid out This place is growing up
very fast, a year ago today there was
not a lot sold on this ground, and to-day
there are over 50 lots sold. The first
were sold at the rate of $10 a lot-5 acres
in that tract then another 5 acres were
laid off in similar manner,, and- sold at
$25 a lot, and now he Mr. Tinker has
laid off another 1-2 acres which is selling
at $5 a lot; 12 of those are also sold
These lots are a little larger than the
others. So you sec it is growing lively.
It is a fine beach for about 15 miles or
more; when the tide is ouu.it is 900 feet
wide hard sand and stout. The bug
gies catch it !

on the Nehalem, and put up a big lot pf
meat (smoke it you know) Mr. Doud
of East Portland is going along; we in
tend to spend abotjt a month, in the
woods. After which I will go to Port
land, and then perhaps East of the
Mountains, and then return here where
I make my home. I have built a res
taurant here and done exceedingly well
last summer.
I wish you could come and see us
next summer, it is lovely, here;.!, know
j'on would enjoy it ever so much. So I
will bid. you Good Night.
Yours Truly,
Frank H. Canaris.
