For the Treatment or Acute aud Chronic

Diseases.
Electrical investigation has proved tina the human
body acts the principle Of the galvanic battery
The brain mucous and serous membranes, the skin,
tissues and fluids constitute the negative and positive
forces. Every action, whether mental or physical Is
the result Of these antaR onlstic forces Digestion
respiration, circulation secretion and excretion are
due solely to Electrical influence. There is polar
action established throughout the nervous system which
connects with every of the body establishing and
preserving proper ba ance Of the electrical eement
which constitutes health, and disturbance of which
disease There strictly but two conditions of
difease-one Of Inflammation, or positive; the other
weak, dsbiitated negative and Electricity contains
these two conditions in the action of the positive and
negative currents, all VIC have 10 do to neutrallze
the disease and restore proper healthy action.
we DO not wish 10 convey the impression that we
cure all diseases In all conditions We cannot cure
consumption after the lungs all DESTROYED; yet we
do assert and prepared to practically dem onstrae
that hundreds almost every form of chronic
diseases, pronounced hcurable by the best medical
practitioners of the country have been radically
CURED, some OF them in incredibly short time by
our Electrical treatment Its great superiority over
other practice in the of disease also attested 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 common to humanity, and In nearly all cases
benefit or perfect cure has been effected Palsy deaf
ness, blindness, rheumatism dyspepsia, cancer and
as It proves his inability to eradicate by our scen
tihc method comparatively easy Of Specimens of

tricy alone, without pain, without the use of the
knife, ligatures, OF any other means may be seen at
our Office by those interested Therefore with these
