TALKS OF VITAL FORCE.
Mr.. Mcconnell Explains the Life
Electricity Method.

MIR. Andrew Mcconnell, president OF the
Life Electricity Institute. gave lecture
last night in DUmbarton Avenue Metho-
dist Episcopal Church TO the members of
the Dumbarton Mems Club. His subject
was Science of Vital Force"
Two hundred years ago nearly every
disease CT the human body was treated
with more or less success by bleeding
the patient" he said Medical science
was then discovered, and has proved OF
great aid 10 the human race. TIE science
Of vital force has now been discovered.
and in all probability will take the place
Of its predecessor, the science Of mcdi-
cine. in curing diseases.
Il don't deCTy medical science, but I do
say that the practice Of administering
drugs is wrong. When a patient is given
a drug to ease his pain his system is
poisoned and excited for a short time.
BY my methods the essential vital force
is restored 70 its normal condition with
out the use of drugs, and in this way the
patient has far better chance Of recov-
eTing.
