proof on a subject as little understood
as vital magnetism, before submitting
the cases for treatment, and the word
of the mana cement alone would do lit

Magnetism is a proven power. and not
a supposiuOn, and that the institute
has under its management the greatest
magnetist in the world Both these
claims can be easily proven by ans
