ELECTRICAL INFLUENCE IN HEALTH AND
DISEASE.

Just Published, price ls., free by Post for Fourteen Stamps,
.;,I,ECO.ND LIFE : or ELECTRICAL NERVOUS
K.l FORCE ; a MEDICAL WORK, intended for the special
perusal of all who are suffering. from the various forms of
NERVOUS and PHYSICAL DEBILITY, and the distress-
ing ulterior consequences to which they lead ; with practical
Observations on the great Curative power of ELECTRO-
GALVANISM in the treatment of these Disorders, by infus-
ing. tone and vigour in constitutions relaxed or debilitated
from various enervating causes. Illustrated with Cases com-
piled from the No:;e-book of a Registered Medical Practi-
tioner of twenty years' standing.
Unlike many vaunted restoratives, Electricity is one which
commends itself to the medical man as being accordant with
the soundest teachings of physiology. By the most obvious
indication it admits of being shown that the Electrical and
Nervous energies are identical ; hence, that when the latter
fails, the former can take its place, and that when, from irre-
gularities of any kind, the nervous system has become debili-
tated, paralysed, or exhausted, and the patient brought to a
condition little short of total prostration, then by the action
of Electricity, imparting certainty and efficacy to medical
treatment, he can be re-invigorated, and his health re-esta-
blished to a degree almost Warranting the designation of
SECOND LIFE.
