At the Wheeling Electro-Medlcal IN

Griest's Cut Rate Pharmacy, hundreds
OF sick people are finding health.
A visit to The Electro-Medical Doc

sick, who see at this institute immune

no more astonishing 20 them than they
are to many electrical experts VINO
have inspected the institute and pro-
nounced it marvellous.
Among the wonderful apparatus at
the Electro Medical Institute IS an
Ozone machine which treats four pa
tients at a time. That Ozone is the
life of animal tissue is not questioned
by anyone-that it is the most I'M
portan1 element in tissue building is
a fact unchallenged. Ozone is natural
in effect and as Il germicde Is capable
of destroying the hardles,; known oac-
terra, but has no destructive effect
whatever upon the body tissues. Inc

The Electro-MedicaF Institute OF

FRIGHT DIAGNOSIS IS
HIGHLY IMPORTANT
Alment Must Be Accurately known
Before Proper Treatment
Can Be Given.

The Importance Of the wonderful
diagnostic. instrument used by the
Electro Medical Doctors can hardly be
estimated by the average sick person.
Or. Chas. II. Mayo, the famous physi-
clan of Rochester, Mimi, in a speech
before the Chicago Medical society, as
reported in the Chicago American
of Nov. 18th last. said: THE near tu-
ture is to see the foundation of instl-
tutions where the country physician
may send cases which seem bathing
for diagnosis. The day OF the tenn
pulse-feeling doctor IS
gone and the period Of careful dlagno'
sis by trained experts and specialists
is here"
