Magnetic Treatment and it's
Virtues.

A system of treating diseases without
drugs and medicines. 1t demands a
thorough and comprehensive knowledge
of the anotomy Of the Human Body, as
well as the science and ability to follow
the Physiological Laws governing the
distribution of its vital fluids and forces.
Prof. Wilkins reads his cases from
magnetic influence. Locates the seat Of
disease and defines its symptoms more
clearly than the patient. This power
is gift and cannot be questioned by the
biggest Skeptic. If so, convincing
proof is open to you.
We don't have to 90 out Of Barre City
to confirm our statements cases of years
standing who have been given up by
the medical faculty are our positive
proof. A cordial invitation extended to
all
