GREATEST WONDER OF THE AGE
DATENT GALVANIC RING, AND MAG

DATENI GALVANlC KIM, AMI MAD-
i NETIC FLUlD.-These wonderful Rings,
and the Galvanic Fluid, have created great sensa
ton throughout Europe, and are attracting crowds
to see them, both in New York and Boston. They
cure with astonishing rapdity rheumatism, govt,
c-dolorcux, fits, cromp, sick headache, indigestion
paralysis, stiff ioinis 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 Harmance
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
