This new, nrst.cla Institution for the Hygtenic
Treatment OF Manifestations Medicines-has now
been in successful operation for fifteen months
with patients from seventeen States and Territories
In the HYGIENIc TREATMENT Of the sick, we repu-
diate the entire system OF drug-giving as not only
utterly faacious, but terribly destructive to health,
happiness and life. Medicines, such as are daily adj
ministered to sick persons II given to those In Wig
orous health, would inevitably make them Ill Rea-
son, Nature and true Science must and do condemn
such " Healing ~ Art"
We rely solely upon natural means, which include
an appropriate combination OF Wholesome Food,
Pure Air, Various forms Of Tepid, Hot and Cold
the strengthening Of feeble muscles, the relief Of
congested organs and equalization o. the circula;

Prominent among these agencies are
I-SWEDISH MOVEMENTS.
By means of these special seml-passive Exercises
we are enabled to overcome the most obstinate
chronic congestions and at the same that we re-
lIeve the Brain, Throat, Lungs Stomach Liver Kid
neys, Uterus etc., Of surplus blood, we determine as
TO the cold hands, feet and limbs OF the patient The
circulation being thus equalzed, day by day, the im-
purites which Obstructed the organic functions,
are carried to the Lungs, Bowels Kidneys, ETC.. and
expelled from the SYSTEM giving reuet from lnfam-
nation, pain and nervous disquiet.
In all forms OF chronic disease, including Weak
Lungs, Indigestion in its many phases, Censtipa-
tiOn Piles Torpid Liver, ETC., ETC., the "Movement
Cure is most eficaciOus 1t gives needed exercise
and quickens the sluggish circulation, lcout trtng
In "Diseases 81 Women" these movements"
are, in connection with our other treatment, the
most effective agents can possibly employ. They
strengthen the enfeebled muscles OF the Abdomen
and Back and SO permanently give relief in all forms
of Uterine Displdcements; while the magnetic rub
blngs and passes over the Spine and limbs quiet and
soothe the nerves, in manner which only sufferers
from this class Of ailments can appreciate.
