For the Treatment Of Acute and Chronic
Diseases.

TOE the treatment OF Acute and Chronic
Diseases,
Electrical investigation has proved tina the human
body acts on the principle of the galvanc battery
The brain, mucous and serous membranes the skin
tissues and fluids constitute the negative and positive
forces Every action, whether mental OF physical IA
the result Of these antagonistc forces. Digestion
resprauon circulation, secretion, and excreton are
due solely TO Electrical influence. There s a poar
action established throughout the system whc
connects with every part of the body and
preserving preeer balance of the electrical element
which constitutes health and disturbance of which
causes disease There are strictly hut conditions of
cisease-one OF Inflammation, or positive; the other
weak, debitated negative; and as Electricity contain a.
these Two conditions In the action of the positive and
negative currents, all We have to do is to neutraze
the disease and restore proper healthy action
C. We do not wish 10 convey the impression that we
cure all diseases all conditions. We cannot cure
consumption after the lungs all destroyed; vet we
do assert and are prepared to practically dem
that hundreds oil cases of almost every of chronic
diseases, pronounced incurable by the best medical
practitioners of the country, have been radically
CURED some OF them in an incredibly short time nv
Electrical treatment Its great superiority ovet
other practice in the of disease Is also attestad In
the fact that within the past years over FOURTEEN
THOUSAND patients have been treated at This office
suffering from almost every form and condition
Of disease to humanity and in nearly all cases
beneht or perfect cure has been effected Palsy deaf
ness, blindness, rheumatism, dyspepsia cancer and
all the old knotty diseases that physlc ans curse
as 1t proves his inability to eradicate are by our sce
hc method comparatively easy of cure. Specimens of
tumoIs OF large growth extracted by means of Eeo
trcity alone without pain without the use of the
knife ligatures any other means, may be seen at
our Office by those interested Therefore with these
FACTS TO prove our theory and treatment OF disease
we are willing to undertake any of the following ais
eases, with every nope and prospect of success vita
