New Rays of Light

One of the most wonderful electrical
appliances is the N-ray which may DO
used both in the treatment OF various DIS
eases and In the diagnosis OF many OBJ
scure conditions. With Its aid the In
terror OF the human BODY is no longer the
sealed book IL has been heretofore. ABB
normal states OF the bones, gall stones
stone in the bladaer or In the kidneys, are
shown plainly by what are known as ~
ray photographs. Internal tumors, and
he enlargement OF the deep-seated or
yans, are also discovered by this means
and In the diagnosis OF tuberculosis oi
the lungs this agent has proven q most
valuable aid. When applied TO some oil
the less fatal chronic ailments OF germ
origin 1t has proven very effective as o
curative agent.
Another interesting proceeding Is the
violet-ray treatment produced by concen-
trating the violet or chemical rays from
an arc light with specially prepared
carbon upon any portion of the body that
may be the seat OF pain. Sufferers from
neuralgia, sciatica, rheumatism, strains,
sprains, also from those obscure exhaust
Ing pains (the origin OF watch cannot at
times be accurately determined) frequent
ly find immediate relief from single
treatment and usually with little per-
sistence in the use of this aid, comfortable
health or perfect recovery Is obtained.
The incandescent light bath, consisting
Of cabinet in which the patient Is
bathed in the combined rays Of many
electric light globes, has produced really
wonderful results In diabetes, sciatica,
rheumatism, obesity, an@mia, and some
| forms OF kidney and heart trouble, 1t
has also proven valuable in chronic bron-
ehltis, bronchial asthma and various skin
diseases. AS general hyglenic measure
It's efficiency can scarcely be over.estl-
mated.
Those who have been patients at DR..
Plerce's Invalids' Hotel, In Buffalo, N. Y,
highly commend this wonderfully equip
ped Sanitarium, where the above men,
TONED electric machines, high frequency
current, and other most modern and up
to-date apparatus are used for the cure
of chronic diseases. The treatment OF
the chronic diseases that are peculiar to
women have for many years been a large
factor in the cures affected at the In
vallds' Hotel and Surgical Institute.
In erecting the lnvalids' Hotel, DIR. X.
V. Pierce's idea was TO make IL genuine
home, not Il hospital. Such cases as rup-
ture, hydrOcele and varicOcele are usually
cured in ten days, and the patient is able
70 return home. The terms are moderate
and the rates at the lnvalids' Hotel COM
paratively low. In the examination and
treatment Of patients the practice Is
divided into specialtiCs. Each member OF
the Faculty, although educated TO prac
tice in all departments of medicine and
surgery, Is here assigned TO special de-
partment only, TO which he devOtes his
entire time, study and attention. Not
only Is superior skill thus attained, but
also rapidity and accuracy in the dlagno-
sis of disease
Specialists connected with this Insti-
tute at Buffalo, are enabled TO accurately
determine the nature OF many chronic
diseases without seeing and personally
examining their patients. This method
OF treating patients at distance, by mail
has been so successful that there Is
scarcely a city or village in the United
States that Is not represented by one OF
more cases upon the records of practice
at the lnvalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitute. Such rare cases as cannot be
treated in this way. which require surgi-
cal operations or careful after-treatment,
or electrical therapeutics, receive the ser.
vices OF the most skillful specialists at
the Institution.
In medicine there has been rapid pro-
greSS during recent years, DIR. Pierce has
kept up with the times by continually i'm.
