"EVERY WORD TRUE."

SO SAYS THE WRITER OF THAT I'WMOUS LETTER.

(New York Tribune.)

It would be difficult to measure the interest and comment, not to say excitement, which the published lotter of Dr. R. A. Gun, 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.

I called upon Dr. Gunn at his residence, No. 124 West Forty-Seventh Street, yesterday afternoon. 1 found the reception room crowded, and it was only after an hour,s waiting that I succeeded in obtaining an interview. Dr. Gunn is a distinguished-looking man, and impressed me at once by his manly bearing and air of sincerity. I took the Beat he courteously offered me And said :

" Are you aware, doctor, of the commotion your letter has caused V Dr. Gunn smiled, and replied—" Things out of the ordinary usually cause comment. It is not a common thing for physicians to endorse and recommend medicines other than those in the 'Materia Medica.' History 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. I hope I have the manhood and courage to be true to my convictions, and that is why I so openly and unhesitatingly endorse Warner's Safe Cure as being the greatest of modern discoveries for the cure of diseases which have baffled the highest skill of the medical profession." I 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 remedy, doctor 1" I asked. " Nearly ten years," he replied. "My attention was originally called to the Safe Cure by a serious case of Bright's desease, which was considered hopeless, and yet, much to my surprise, under its use the patient recovered. I have tried it in other cases since then constantly, and my original faith in its powers has been confirmed. 1 have seen patients recover from inflammation of the bladder, gravel, and Bright's diseas when all other treatment had failed, and I have found it especially efficient in all female troubles." " Can you specify any particular cases doctor?" I asked. " That is a delicate thing to do," the doctor replied, "but as I always keep a written record of my cases, I 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 inflammation of the bladder of long standing. Ho had consulted a number of physicians without benefit. When first consulted, I myself tried the usual methods of treatment, but without success, and I finally advised him to try Warner's Safe Cure. He i'uifc better from the start, and in a few weeks was entirely cured. The doctor turned a few pages furtlu-r. and then said : _ '•' Here is another case. It is that or a gentleman who had frequent attacks of renal calculi, which, as you know is gravel forming in the kidney. He had never been able to prevent these formations, but after an unusually severe attack I recommended him to try the Safe Cure which he did, and, although it is three years since he took the remedy, he Iras never had an attack since." The doctor continued to turn the leaves of his book, and suddenly exclaimed : " Here is a most remarkable case. It is that of a lady who had suffered for some time from Bright's disease, she became enciente, and about the fourth mouth suddenly became blind, had convulsions. and filially 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 J fully concurred. As t-he could still swallow, 1 said, as a last resort, that they might try Warner's Safe Cure. They did so, and to the surprise of everyone, she recovered. She has since given birth to a lining child, and is perfectly well." " Those are certainly most wonderful cases, doctor," I said, " While I do not for a moment question their authenticity, I should consider it a great favor if you would give me their names. I think the importance of the subject would fully justify it." "In the interest of other sufferers I think you are correct," Dr Gunn finally observed, after a moment's thought " Both the lady and her huaband are so rejoiced, so grateful, over her recovery that I know she is only too glad to have others bear of it. The lady is Mrs Eames, the wife of the well-known costumier. She was not only restored, but is in perfect health to-day." -1 thanked the doctor for his courteous reception, for the valuable information imparted, and I feel assured that his generous and humane nature will prevent him from feeling other than glad at seeing this interview published for the benefit of suffering humanity.
