Electro
Magnetism
is LIFE,
HEALTH,
AND POWER.

DIR. Charlotte Bergman has, AT
great expense and after years of the
closest study, discovered an entire
new method Of applying electricity
and magnetism to the cure of dis
eases; particularly those of n chronic
nature. Her success has been so
great that in no case that the doctor
has undertaken to cure has there
been a single failure. Cases consid-
cred incurable not taken. The ap.
pliances are always ready, requiring
no exciting fluid. and produce a
steady. continuous flow of electro
magnetism that effects all the or
gans of the body. driving out all pain
and disease of whatever nature, and
in the shortest possible time, with
out drug medication, and at compar-
atively small expense. The electro
magnetic appliances consist of cor
sets, vests, waists, belts, caps,
collars, lung protectors. leggiDgs,
knee caps, insoles, wristlets and such
other appliances as.may be required
in special cases. These are worn
outside of the undertaking. and
cause.-the wearer no inconvenience
whatever. On the contrary, a sense
OF comfort, new life and strength is
experienced from the first week in
using. So certain Is this that Dr.
Bergman offers to furnish complete
set of electromagnetic batteries on
one weeks trial, on a positive guar
antee. All information and advice
regarding these remarkable curative
appliances and numerous references
to those who have been cured, cheer
fully furnished free.

Of our plan. So far had only done bust

favorable circumstance, rs il would
give me u chance to flourish in u grand

for some time been customer of the

probably take the trouble to ascertain
how very brief, in fact, my acquaintance
had been.
