camped rival armies of microbes, the
good and the bad-those that sustain
health, those that breed illness. And
between these two armies a never
ceasing war is carried on from birth
until death. Even the healthiest per-
son has in his body constantly,
breathed into the lungs or taken into

about his sure destruction were it not

fevers and other diseases are driven
from the field. the body being impreg-
nable against them.
But when the balance turns the other
way, and the attacking hordes are able
to overcome the resistance at one point
or another on the line, then this or that
disease breaks forth and the doctors
appear with this or that drug, Which,
at the best can only combat the effect
and not the cause. Had there been in
the patient more life force the line of
resistance would have been strength
ened by it and the disease brought to
a conclusion without drugs. In other
words the new school of physics re-
CARDS drugs, with few exceptions, as
merely temporary expedients and pre-

Strengthening the whole system, so that
it can fight it's own battles, and here
electricity is a powerful and ever ready
ally.
Already D'Arsenval and other Paris

tendency to supercede drugs with cleo

ranged coils, sometimes encircling the

Girdner, of New York, and adopted

the world In this novel device
use is made of the ordinary telephone
principle, it being literally true that the
surgeon discovers a bullet imbedded in
the body by hearing it. Had the cleo
trio bullet finder been in existence
when Garibaldi and Garfield were shot,
it is likely that both these great lives
might have been saved. 1t does it's
work more quickly and easily than
even the Roentgen rays could.
No battery is used in operating the
telephone bullet finder, the body of
the patient himself being made to fur
nish the current necessary for working
the telephone sounder. This is done on
the familiar principle than whenever
two metals are placed in a liquid
slightly aciduated, their external ends
being connected by conductor, an

what is passing through them, While
Tesla's startling experiments nave
shown that a man may receive mllilons
of volts that literally set his whole
body aglow with electric fire and yet
suffer no harm.
These high frequency currents are
found to produce most stimulating
and beneficial effect upon the nerves
of nutrition, which envelop and pene-
trate all the tissues of the body, and
which, when they fail to act properly,
are responsible for many diseases like
rheumatism, govt, anaemia, chlorosis,
reurasthenia, melanchoiia, etc, usually
the result of malnutrition and a fail

In rheumatism especially these cur
rents give most valuable results by
checking the formation of the baneful

To a person whose nerves have given

there is nothing more delightful or

from one of the electrodes passed over
