TIE OWEN ELECTRIC BELT AND APPLIANCE Co.:
GeatIe1ea-Solely in the interest Of others
who are, or may become similarly affected with
myself, venture to offer my experience with
the use Of the Owen Electric BELT, and that
l am actuated entirely by that motive, must be
apparent from the fact that until you see my
name and address recorded on this letter you
had no knowledge of either. had long been q
sufferer from chronic dyspepsia and nervous
prostrstion, contracted or aggravated by many
years residence in the East Indies. About three
years ago purchased one of your Belts in the
hope that its use might afford me some relief
and wore it continuously as directed for about
four hours every afternoon for month or So
and the result wac perfectly marvellous. My
indigestion with all its attendant miseries, ner
vousuess, depression, irritability and insomnia,
from which latter was great sufferer, have
disappeared. Then discontinued the use ofthe
Belt (the existence OF which had indeed for
gotten), until about six weeks ago, when a
recurrence OF my old trouble very forcibly
reminded me of it. / again put it into wear
(after ceasing it's use for over one and one-halt
years), and with the same extraordinary results,
being again restored TO health, strength and
vigor, after wearing it for only ten days. Under
these circumstances / can most emphatically
recommend to others suffering from the ailments
which have endeavored to describe the adop-
ton OF the use of the owen Electric Belt,
had long been aware of the curative powers of
electricity from what had read on the subject
and on my return to England purchased from
Pulvernacher of Regent street, London, the
combined chain bands, Of which he is the
patentee, for which l paid three guineas, and
although / must admit that l derived some
benefit from their use, / am bound to say the
general result did not approach the benefit
derived from the use of the owen Belt,
besides which its utility is so great an improve
ment in comfort and convenience; Pulver-
machers' being cumbersome and complicated in
adjusting to the body, besides causing from
being uncovered, blisters and sores, and above
all not being able to regulate the current as is
the case in the Owen Electric Belt. You
are at perfect liberty to make what use you
think fit Of this letter, and shall be glad to
answer either verbally or by letter any inquiry
made from me on this subject. 1 am, gentlemen.
Yours respectfully,
W. j. BRoDIE.
