For the Treatments OF Acute and ChrOmae
Diseases.
Electrical investigation has proved that the human
body acts on the principle OF the galvanic battery
fhe brRln, mucous and serous menbranes the akin
1nssnes and fluids constitute the NEGATIVE and posi-
i've iorees Every acLI0n. whether mental or physi-
CAL Is the result OF these antagonistc forces Oigea
non' respiration, circulation, secretion and exsro-
apolar acton established throughout the neTvonS
system which connects Ith every part of the bodv
electrical element, which Constitutes healtn and y,
disturbance of which causes disease. There are
strcty but two conditions OF dlsease-one of inAan,
nation, or postivej the other weak. deb,litated
negative; and as Electricity contains these two con-
onrrn,I ons IN III tne action OF the positive and negative
ease A''f restore proper healthy action
we 40 not wish 70 convey the impression that We
cure all diseases in all conditions. We cannot ouro
consumption after the lungs are all DESTROYED; vet
we do assert and are prepared to pTact cay demon-
1tate that hundreds OF cases of almost every form Of
chronic diseases, pronounced incurab le by the bo
medical practitioners of the country have been radt
cally CURBD, some of them In an incredibly short
time, by our Electrical treatment. Its GREAT snne
19rlty over other practice IN the of disease II
aso attested IN the fact that, within the past five
years over fourteen thousand patients have been
treated at this Office suffering from almost every
form and condition Of disease common to humanity
ana IN nearly al cases benefit perfect cure has
been effected. Palsy, deafness, blindness, rbeuma-
tism, dyspepsia, cancer and ali the old knotty dis
eases that are physiean's curse, IL proves bia
inability to eradicate, are by our scientific method
comparatively easy ct cure: Specimens Of tumors OF
