MEDICAL ELECTRICITY.

INUI IZZO w VHLNO SlI OOlI
During our Investigations in the treatment of dis.
in its various forms by the agency of electricity
we have obtained very many valuable and startling
facts, which, added to the previous though limited
information possessed by other and less fortunate
operators, place US beyond all previous knowledge of
this mysterious agent. During the course of our prac
tice have treated and cured, through the know
ledge thus gained, many thousands, and by of
discoveries have established ourselves the
most successful Medical Electricians in this country
or Europe.
Electrical investigation has proved that 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 posi-
tive iorces and every action, whether mental or phy
sca is the result ofthese antagonistic forces Dges
ton, respiration circulation secretion and excreton
due solely to electrical influence. There is polar
action established throughout the nervous system
which connects with every part of the body, establish
ng ana preserving proper balance of the electrical
element which constitutes health, and a disturbance
OF which causes disease There strictly but TWO
conditions OF dsease-one of Inflammation or posi-
tive the other weak, debilitated, 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 proper
healthy action.
Among the chronic diseases which electricity has
been and is daily being by agency of the greatest
utility, cure being rapidly effected after the failure
OF all other means, are:-
