Ey- The newly discovered process
Of eliminating metallic poison from the
human body by means Of chemical
electricity, which has excited 50 much
Unrest in he medical and scientific,
world. is AS follows: A metallic bath
is Instituted from everything and par.
tiaIly filed with acidulated water, to
convey more readily the electric cur
rents. The patient lies upon a reat
in the tub Insulated entirely from the
bath When gold, silver or mercury
is in the system, nitric or hydrochloric
acids are employed; when lead is
suspected, the acid used is sulpnric.
This done, the negative pole ola bat
terry is put in connection with the bath
while the positive pole is in the hands
Of the p.'ient. The electricity now
preciriates itself, hunts, digs, searches
and discovers every particle Of me
tallic substance concealed in The most
profound tissues, bones, joints and
nerves Of the patient, resolves them
into their primitive FORMS ana extract
ing them entire from the human or
ga,izafion deposits them upon the sides
ofthe bath where they can be easily
seen.
