which were large number of ladies, who are
peculiarly subject TO Nervous Complaints have
been ENTIRELY AND PERMANENTLY Y
CURED, when all hope of relief had been Civ
en- up, and every thing else been tried in vain!
To illustrate the use of the GALVANIC
BELT, suppose the case of person afflicted
with that bane of civilization, DYSPEPSIA.
or any other Chronic or Nervous Disorder. In
ordinary cases, stimulants are taken, which,
by their action on the nerves and muscles of
the stomach, afford temporary relief. but which
leave the patient a lower state, and with in.
jured faculties, after the action thus excited
has ceased. Now compare this with the effect
resulting from the application of the GAL.
VANlC BELT. Take Dyspeptic sufferer,
even In the worst symptoms Of an attack, and
simply tie the Belt around the body using the
Magnetic Fluid as directed, in short period
the insensible perspration will act on the posi.
tive element of the Belt, thereby causing Gal.
vanic circulation which will pass on 10 the
negative, and thence back again TO tie positive.
thus keeping up continuous Galv; mic circu.
lation throughout the system. Thus the most
severe cases Of Dyspepsia arc Permanently Gu,
red. few days is often amply sufficient to
eradicate the disease Of years.
