Tho GOLDEN REMEDY, or ELECTRIC
PILLS AND LiNiMENr, for Chronic diseases,
aud Scrolulous affections only.
In croful and all chronic diseases, there Is
a want Of vitality, aud nervous energy, IN conse.
qucnce Of deficiency Of the vital principle,
which is mol generated in sufficient quantity 10
counieract that general tendoocy TO decay or
disease, which exists in the human system, cnus-
ing the disorganization or destruction Of organs,
or paris. For disease oft Glass; all intelligent
and candid physicians acknowledge that no clti-
cient remedy can be found 10 the books F; yet Il
has been shown by numerous experiments, with
which most medical men are familiar, that tho
vital fluid aud tho galvanic fluid are identicslly
the same, or that The latter would ellectually
supply the place of the former, in keeping up
the natural and healthy action in parts Of tho
body, where the nervous communication had
been entirely cut Off For some years past ,tio
pains or expense has been spared in endeavoring
TO render tho knowledge Of these facts, available
and Of service in curing disease, until the COL
DEN REMEDY, or Electric Pills and Linimont
were found TO bo triumphant
These Pills are composed Of articles that con-
tain large portions Of latent electricity, of dis
similar qualities (ds zinc and copper which
are perfectly mild, simple, and harmless in their
nature. The positive Pills are put up in boxes
coated over with red and the negative with yol-
lew sealing wax, which prevents the escape OF
any Of their electric forces One Pill from oacli
box, is always to be taken at time.
The Pills, instead Of acting on the stomach or
general system, are acted upon by the gastric
Juice, which is always acid, in such manner,
ms to evolve or set free their electricity is the
,a.L IA. .,C ,Iunn ntr
currents, which is conducted through the medium
Of the nerves, 10 every part Of The system, pro-
ducing an agreeable, slightly tranquiIizing SEN
saton, attended with faint glow Of warmth
over the whole body, for about Sax houts in dura-
lion after they nre taken.
By thus generating in the stomach necessary
quantity of The vital principle, the very seeds Of
tho disease are oradicated, and permanent cure
effected, even in cases where all hopes of relief
from other sources have been abandoned.
Each box contains seventy two pills, which IL
enough to cure all ordinary forms Of Chronic
disease but when the case is obstinate, Or has
been Of very long standing. one box will not be
found sufficient TO make perfect cure.
In the yellow box, containing tho negative
Pills, which are smaller than the positive, will be
found small compound substance, about tho
size Of nutmeg, which must be taken from the
box and pulyerized, or grated fine, thon mixed
with half IA pint Of sweet oil, (bm fresh butter
or street cream niH ssrpe as u substitute for
The OILY this forms tho LrNIMENr. This is an
external application, which being a nsn-conduct-
ing substance, prevents the electricity from pas
sing oil from the surface Of the body, wherever
il is applied.

II will be seen that this is not a remedy for all
diseases, but for such emily as are characterized
by debility, and want Of general, or local so-
ton, fiom a deficiency Of the vital principle. IL
acute diseases, and all fevers, (t1cept the lou
crude Of typhus, IN Uhich the aLore . rs.nedi.s
are singuidriy eGcacious,) these remedies are
not applicable, because in this form Of disease
the vital principle is in excess, producing too
much action.
Physicians having cases Of Chronic, or Ssrofu-
lous diseases, under their charge, whero all the
usual remedies have been tried, and failed to
give relief, respectfully invited to mako trial
Of tho above, as it is believed that they will mol
fail in eilecting n cure ia all ordinary cases, Of
tcner than idlosyncrasy or some peculiarly Of
constitution is found TO occur.
These Remedies are for sale, with directions
for their use. at II. X. HAZARDS, Sign Of the
