The Most Wonderful Invention.


DIR. A. OWENS ELECTRICAL BELTS.
Sr. LOUIS, Mo, February 26, 1857 DR.. A.
Owen is the most successful inventor and man
ufacturer in the country of Electrical Applian-
ces for the cure Of acute, chronic and nervous
diseases. They have received the unqualified
Endorsement of physicians of high standing, as
well as thousands of sufferers who have been
cured by them. The following Endorsement,
for instance, isabsolutely convincing and the
writer is Professor of the Theory and Practice
of Medicine in the American Medical College
of st. Louis, Clinical Lecturer at the City Hos
pital, st. Louis; Editor of the American Medi-
cal Journal; Author Of Electricity in Medicine
and Surgery,,' and Author of 'Dlrect Medica-
ton. "-Therapeutics.
Sr. LOUIS, Mo-, june 10, 1SS6-I take pleas
ure In stating that have examined and tested
DIR. OWENS Electro-Galvanic Belt and Appli-
ance, and do not hesitate to say that 1t is the
most practical and efficient OF all the Galvanic
Belts have used In my practice. 1t is a
very useful device, and whenever electric belts
or shields can be Of any benefit, this will more
than take the place of anything of the kind
have ever seth: GEORGE q. PrTzER, NJ. d.
The Belts have reversible current, and can
be regulated to any desired power and the
current is under the control of the patient
There are Suspensory Appliances for the cure
of sexual and genital diseases, and Spinal APP
planes for special diseases, etc. The Belt will
completely cure Nervous and General Debility,
SpermatorrhGa, Lumbago, Paralysis, Neural
gla, rheumatism, Nancy ana spinal Diseases,
Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Erysipelas, Catarrh,
Blood Poisoning, Asthma and all female dis
cases. such as Falling of the Womb, Leucor-
rhGa, Hysteria, etc. These Appliances in
dorsed (as the best made) by all dealers in cleo
trical and surgical instruments, may be obtain
ed from them or from DR.. Owen himself The
reader should bear in mind that this is no clap
trap advertisement, but free notice of Won
derful invention. Parties living outside the
city should address DR.. Owen for illustrated
circulars, testimonial circulars, priceists, etc.
which will give them every possible informa-
ton. Another wonderful Invention of DR..
Owen Is his Electrical InsOles Their use will
cure all diseases due to coIdfeet Ladies' Belts

ces are very low. Try them. Offices: 500 n.

The Ancestral Hnrsa In NnhrnsL

Professor o. c. Marsh, OF Yale, is
still on the sunny side of so, and d
vigorous, pushing man. Mr. Marsh
is probably the best known on the
other SIDE Of the water of all our geol-
ogiSts. He received great honors
from foreign societies and governments
Il few years ago on account of his dis
covery of the ancestry of the horse.
bringing up his evolution from the
lower order OF animals to his present
perfect state. His discovery came
about in this wise, says the n. Y.
Star: During vacation one summer
he took Il number of Yale students on
working frolic to "the bud lands"
in Nebraska, which is regarded as the
best for obtaining all sorts of fossils of
any territory in the world.
During this trip the professor and
his party discovered a dried-up swamp
that had probably been lake centu-
ries ago. Workiugmen were building
a railroad through it, and throwing
up thousands upon thousands Of
strange bones, These the professor
gathered up in large quantities, and
before he had finished his examination
OF them he had traced the origin of the
horse six states back. His discovery
complete. he sent its results and full
specimens OF the bones to different
scientific schools. and was greatly
honOred therefor. Probably nc discov-
cry of recent times attracted so much
attention.

A middle-aged woman who had been
In the habit OF purchasing treatises on
nursing at well-known book store ia
Boston came in one day and bought
number Of physiological and other
works of a more distinctive medical
character The salesman had con-
ceived the idea from her previous pur-
chases and from a certain style OF
dress and bearing that his customer
was a professional nurse, or at all
events was in training for that posi-
ton. When, therefore, she bought
the medical works, issued under the
auspices of the Boston College Of
Physicians and Surgeons, he was some
what nonplused, but, his curiosity hav-
ing been excited, he said Il see you
have got through your studies as
nurse" The woman replied blandly,
but with a certain manner which
seemed as much as her words TO repel
the salesman's inference, II am not a
nurse; am a Christian scientist"

Ingalls, Story Of Ills Brother.

Senator Ingalls, tells story of his
brother, DR.. ingalls,, who is at the
head of an educational institute in
Missouri. DIR. Ingalls, has puzzled the
community Of which he is member by
remaining in lonely state OF singl o
blessedness; not only puzzled, but in
some degree, offended, for the doctor
is a most agreeable man, and there
are in the community some very agree
able women. The matter was dis
cussed at many sewing circles, and
finally one old maid volunteered to
convey the sense OF the community on
the subject to the offender When
she called on the doctor she put the
question rather bluntly:
Doctor" she said, "the ladies are
very anxious to know why you have
never married in these many years you
have been among us.
Madame" said DIR. Ingalls,, with
all the suavity OF manner which he
could muster up for the occasion.
''yOu may inform the ladies that at
least it has not been for lack OF oppor.
tunity."
And it is said that the doctor is not
nearly so popular now among the
ladies OF his acquaintance as he was
