siantly removing humor, weakness, and disease by a
gradual daily increase of the weight strength and vgor

The successful results of this New Theory are both re-
markable and wonderful wherever it is carefully
adopted. No doubt be entertained of its practical
benefit in every form of disease, humor, debility. The
restorative process is simple safe and under any crcum-
