GREATEST WONDER OF THE AGE,
DATENT GALVANiC RING, AND MAG
Il NETIC FLUID.--Tbese wonderful Rings,
and the Galvanic Fluid, have created great scnsa-
ton throughout Europe, and are attracting crowds
to see them, both in New York and Boston. They
cure with astonishing rapidity rheumatism govt,
tic-dooreux, fits, cramp, sick headache, indigestion,
paralysis, stiff joints, general debility, deficiency OF
nervous energy, and all nervous disorders. They
produce all the beneficial results of the ordinary gal
vanic battery, or electric and magnetic machines,
without the injurious shocks which always accom-
pany their application The secret Of preparing
the Ring was discovered by Professor Hsrnance
Christie, of London, in October last and they have
been recently introduced into this country by Dr. A.
Christie, who warns the American public, from the
beginning, to beware of spurious limitations. To
guard against fraud he will appoint but one agency
in each Of the cities of the United States.
