DEFICIENCY OF NERVOUS ENERGY.
GALVANISM THE SUREST CURE FOR IT.
WHAT IS " DEFICIENCY OF NERVOUS
ENERGY ?" It is a withdrawal of nervous fluid from
any particular muscle or organ affected. For instance, sup-
pose the stomach is so weak that it cannot digest food, the
stomach is then deficient of nervous energy, for experiments
made on animals prove that if the nerves wh' lead from the
spine to the stomach are separated, so as . cut off the supply
of nervous fluid, all digestion ceases the instant. Again,
suppose any muscle or limb so
'wee at it cannot perform its
functions, that muscle or limb • eficient of nervous energy.
We may pursue the same reas• ing as regards the brain, and
hence the reason of lowness . spirits, want of resolution, tor-
por of all the intellectual .owers, loss of memory, &c. The
question which now aria • is this,—" Can Galvanism supply the
various organs with ne -ous energy when they are deficient of
it ?" To reply to t - question we must go to experimental
facts—facts so wel authenticated, that no physiologist of the
present day dem:. them. The following experiment is conclu-
sive, and will e(nvince the most sceptical that Galvanism can
not only supply the place of the nervous fluid, but that the gal-
vanic fluid and the nervous fluid is one and the same thing. In
Dr. Wilson Phillip's celebrated work, entitled "An Enquiry
into the Laws of the Vital Functions," several experiments,
similar to the following one, were made in order to decide the
long-disputed question as to whether the galvanic fluid was
identical with the nervous fluid. Three dogs were procured

the stomach. Nothing was done to the third dog at this stage
of the experiment. A stream of galvanic fluid was now passed,
through the divided nerves of one of the dogs, and, at the ex-
piration of four hours, the three dogs were killed. On examin-
ing the stomach of the non-galvanised dog, not a particle of
food was digested; whilst the food of the galvanised dog pre-
sented exactly the same appearance as that in the stomach of
the dog which had not had the operation performed of dividing
the nerves. Such experiments as these must come home to the
conviction of the most sceptical ; for nothing can be a more
convincing proof that the galvanic fluid and the nervous fluid
is the same thing, and that the galvanic battery, when properly
applied, will cure those complaints properly styled " a defici-
ency of nervous energy." Invalids in the country are informed
that I continue to supply my Portable Galvanic Apparatus at
Ten Guineas each; and that with my instructions, they will be
enabled to apply the Galvanism just as effectually as they could
receive it at my own residence. I take this opportunity to caution
parties against using those small electro-magnetic apparatuses
having only one or two pair of plates, for their constant effect is,
to irritate the whole nervous system. My apparatus, which has
now become so celebrated, consists of twelve pair of zinc and
silver plates, and a most complete regulating apparatus, with
wire handles, &c. The whole is contained in a neat mahogany
box, about two feet long, one foot high, and one foot broad ;
and when in action, is an ornament to any drawing-room, and'
is, in short, perfection itself. From the weakest to the strong-
es: power there are fifteen gradations, the use of which is de-
scribed in my sixth and seventh letters on Medical Galvanism
(see my pamphlet) to which I beg to refer the reader's attention.
The extraordinary cures I have made by means of Galvanism
have so astonished the whole medical world, that I am now
patronised by the highest of the Medical Profession. The most
timid nee ; not be afraid of using my apparatus, as the power
of it is entirely under command, and the power of it can be
regulated so accurately, that an infant may be galvanised by it
without causing it to cry. The price is Ten Guineas. The
cash to accompany the order.
WILLIAM HOOPER HALSE.
Invalids are solicited to send to Mr. W. H. HALSE, Profes-
sor of Medical Galvanism, 22, Brunswick-square, London, for
his pamphlet on Medical Galvanism, which will be forwarded
free on receipt of two postage stamps. They will be astonished
at its contents. In it will be found the particulars of cures in
cases of asthma, rheumatism, sciatica, tic-doloureux, paralysis,
spinal complaints, headache, deficiency of nervous energy, liver
complaints, general debility, indigestion, stiff joints, all sorts
of nervous disorders, &c. Mr. Halse's method of applying
the galvanic fluid is quite free from all unpleasant sensation;
in fact, it is rather pleasurable than otherwise, and many ladies
are exceedingly fond of it. It quickly causes the patient to do
without medecine. Terms One Guinea per week. The above
' pamphlet contains his letters on Medical Galvanism)
