Rheumatism, Bronchitis and Dyspepsia.
REV. DR.. Lands, A CLERGYMAN (
Of New Jersey, Of distinguished attainments and en-.
alted reputation - .I.E t
SIDNEY. New Jersey, July ia. 1885,
DR. A. II. CHRisT'E-Dear Sir: You wish to know
Of me what has been the result in my own case, Of
the application of THE GALvANIC' BELT AND
NECKLACE. My reply Is as follows:
FOR about ttcenty year, ] had been suffering from
Dyspepsia Every year the symptoms became worse,
nor could obtain permanent relief from any course
of medical treatment whatever. About fourteen years
since, in consequence of frequent exposure to the
weather. in the discharge Of my pastoral duties,
became subject to severe Chronic Rheumatism,
which for year after year, caused me indescribahle
anguish Farther in the winter Of '45 and 46 in con-
sequence OF preaching great deal in my own and
various other churches in this region was attackea
by the Bronchitis, which soon Became so severe as
10 require an immediate Suspension of my pastoral
labors. My nervous system nOp thoroughly pros
traied and as my Bronchitis became worse so also
did my Dyspepsia and Rheumatic affection.-thus
evincing that these disorders connected with
each other through the medium of the Nervous Sys.
TEN, In the whole pharmacoPoia there seemed TO be
no remedial agent which could reach and recuperats
my Nervous system every thing that had tried for
this purpose had completely failed AT last was led
by my friends to anime your inventions and though
determined to try the effect Of the Application oi The
GALvANIC BELT AND NECKLACE, with the
MAGNETIC FLUID. This in June, ls46 Te

ENTIRELY AND PERMANENTLY CURED,
when all hope Of relief had been given up and every
thing else been tried in vain
To illustrate the use of the GALyANIC BELT,
suppose the Of person afflicted with that band
Of civilization, DYSPEPSIA, or any other Chronic
Nervous Disorder In ordinary cases, stimulants
taken which, by their action the nerves and mus
ces Of the stomach afford temporary relief but which
leave the patient in lower state and with injured
faculties, after the action thus excited has ceased
Nov compare this with the effect resulting from the
application Of the GALvANIC BELT. Take Dya
pepuc sufferer, even in the worst SYMPHONIC of an
attack, and simply tie the Belt around the Body using
the Magnetic Fluid directed In a short period the
nsensble perspration will act the positive element
Of the Belt, thereby causing sGalvsnic circulation
which will pass to the negative, and thence back
again to the positive thus keeping up continuous
Gaivanic circulation throughout the system Thus
the most severe cases Of DYSPEPSIA are PERMA.

five assume that every dollar rep
resents at least 3 lbs. of wool, we
have an import in the manufactured
fabric equal to about fifty-four mil
lions Of lbs, which is not far from the
true quantity. Ofthese imports, Eng
land furnishes $lO,494,s49 France
$4,574,2S4. The entire value of cot
ton manufactures is only about $lO,-

nearly the same. The imports OF
wool for the same period, was TO-
660, ,794 lbs-valued at ST. ,6sl ,69O.--
OF this quantity upwards Of eleven
millions OF pounds came from South
America; and thvee millions from
Turkey, one million from France on
the Mediterranean, and nearly two
millions from Great Britain.
We have imported, therefore, in
wool, raw and manufactured, upwards
of 10000 600 pounds, which would
represent 3O,OO0,OOO of sheep, or full
twenty-five millions Of Aeeces, annu-
ally. We import, therefore, fully as
much wool as we grow.
1t cannot escape the notice of the
most casual observer, the very cheap
rate at which the wool has been inn
ported, as the valuation is only about
nine cents perlb. If as great frauds
have been committed upon the reve-
nue. in other branches as in this it will
form pretty serious item, for we as
sert without contradiction, that the
wool thus imported is worth to the
manufacturer fully three times what
it is invoiced at to the custom house.
We have seen how much wool has
been imported; let us look and see
how much has been exported; for
there are some timid people who think
the market will soon be glutted with
wool. Put on your glasses, good
reader, if your sight is not extremely
good.

his men. They took up their arms
and went.
The Prince was greatly struck by
the whole proceeding. He did not
entirely trust the robbers words; and
relieving his servant, they paced up
and down, thus keeping watch the
whole night. But no robber again ap-
peared.
On the morrow the lady continued
the journey with her companion. The
weather had cleared up, and only the
puddles in the lanes and the drops ot
rain glistening on the branches, re-
minded them of the previous day
After they had ridden about an hour,
they suddenly heard the discharge OF

Haburak stepped forth from the

The horses stopped; the Prince drew
forth his pistols. But Haburak, with
out needing this threatening mien;
rode close up to the carriage door
and said
"We yesterday sacrificed our COM
fort that the rest of this lady should
not as disturbed. Now will see
whether it was worth. the trouble"
With these words he lifted the veil
which hung down from the lady's bon

"She is really very pretty"
He turned round, plucked wild
rose from a bush close at hand, and
offered it to the lady with these words
"Accept this rose kindly, as keep
sake from the poor. robber Haburak;
and ifyou sometime hear that he has
been hanged, pray an Ave Maria for
his soul"
The lady took the rose, and the
robber vanished.
Two years later, the newspapers
related that the robber Haburak had
been caught; that he had been tried
at the assizes in lorna, convicted OF
desertion and highway robbery, and
hanged.
