Wireless Cure
For Rheumatism
Electric Current From Electro
podes Proves an Astonishing
Remedy for Rheumatism
and Other Diseases.
Now Within Reach of Every Suf-
ferer.

You hear no click. you feel no
current, yet with increasing power
a gentle healing, soothing, restoring
current is sent into every fibre,
nerve, vessel and organ of the body
by means of a remarkable new dis
covery called Electropodes.
Proofs of the results of Electro
podes, in cases of rheumatism es-
pecially, and of nervous Affections
and organic diseases, have caused
a transformation in scientific the
ories. Electropodes are different
since they create no current except
while they are actually in service.
The current generated has been found
to have an astonishing effect on blood
impurities and the kidneys, thus be-
ing n quick remedy for rheumatism,
ney troubles, stomach and liver COM
plants, nervous prostration, weak
nerves, headaches and weak heart.
Electropodes in appearance are
peculiar metallic insoles so placed
in the heels and arch of the shoes as
They never cause discomfort. No
medicines or temporary drug stimu-
lants are used or needed. Right
from the start the system undergoes
complete, healthy, change by means of
this electropodic current. So re-
Electropodes that they are now be-
ing sold under a legal binding
signed contract with each purchaser
to give quick relief and entire
satisfaction. They are sold now at
all drug stores at only $100 a pair
and the druggist signs a contract
that if they are not absolutely satis-
fled with the results of Electropodes
at the end of a full 80 days your
money will be refunded.
Thus every man and woman can
now test the wonder of Electro
podes without risk. If your drug
gist does not have Electropodes on
hand, have him order a pair from
