~ CURATIVES.=EoralIN Nervous Diseases these

CHRISTIE's GALvANIC AND MAGNETIC
~ CURATIVES.-Forall Nervous Diseases these
celebrated articles are positive and absolute spe
cific.
The Belt is used when the body or system gene
rally is affected; the Necklace for complaints of the
throat asthma and bronchitis, and of the head;
and the Bracelets for any disorders of the arms
limbs, as rheumatism palsy, tremors, and spasmo-
die affections. These articles simply applied
as directed with the Magnetic Fluid which accom-
pany them, and when faithfully used they never
fail.
The great peculiarly and excellence of the Gal
vanc Curatves consist in the fact that they arrest
and cure disease by outward application, in place
of the usual method of drugging and physicking
the patient till exhausted nature sinks hopelessly
under the infection. They strengthen the whole
system, equalze the circulation Of the blood, pro-
mote the secretions nvgorate the entire energies,
and can never do the slightest harm under any cir
cumstances.
