During our investigations in the treatment Of dis
ease in its various forms by the agency Of electricity
we have obtained very many valuable and startling
facts, which, added the previous though limited
information possessed by other and less fortunate
operators place beyond all previous knowledge Of
this mysterious agent During the of our prac-
tice we have treated and cured, through the know
ledge thus gained many thousands ana by means of
our new discoveries have established ourselves the
most successful Medical Electricians in this country
or Europe.
Electrical investigation has proved that human
body acts on the principle of the galvRnic battery.
The brain, mucous and serous membranes, the skin
tissues and fluids, constitute the negative and posi-.
tive iOrces and every action whether mental or phy-
sca is the result ofhese antagonistc forces Diges-
toD, respiration, circulation, secretion, excreton

element which constitutes health and a disturbance
of which disease. There are strictly but two
conditions OF dsease-one OF Inflammation or posi-
tive; the other weak, deblltated negative-and as
electricity contains these two conditions in the action
of the positive and negative currents all we have to
do is TO neutralize the disease and restore proper
healthy action.
