During our urtnvestigatons In the treatment Of dis
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 beyond all previous knowledge of
this mysterious agent During the of prac-
tice we have treated and cured, through the know
ledge thus gained, many thousands, and by of
our new discoveries have established ourselves as the
most successful Medical Electricians in this country
Europe s.
Electrical investigation has proved that the human
body acts the principle OF the galvanc battery.
The brain. mucous and serous mem oranes, the skin
tissues and fluids, constitute the negative and posi-.
tive iorces and every action, whether mental ply
sica is the result ofthese antagonstc forces. Diges
tion respiration. circulation, secretion, and excretion
are due solely electrical influence There polar
action established throughout the nervous system
which connects with part OF the body establish
bg preserving proper balance of the electrical
element which constitutes health, and disturbance
of which causes disease. There strictly but two
conditions OF disease-one OF Inflammation or posi-
tive; the other weak, debilItated, negaLive-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 actioH. .#

and is daily being by agency the greatest
utility. being rapidly effected after the failure
OF all other means, are:-
