FOR THE WEAK, NERVOUS AND DEBILITATED! SOUND BODILY HEALTHI SECURED TO ALL. ELECTRICITY, NATURE'S CHIEF RESTORER OF IMPAIRED VITAL ENERGY. The current issue of the ELEC- TRIC QUARTERLY contains val- uable information for Invalids and those suffering from Nerv- ous, Exhausting and Painful Dis- eases. It treats upon the laws of hygiene and physical culture, and shows how perfect bodily | health and energy may be fully regained by means of PULVERMACHER'S BLecraic Brirs _—m —— BANDS. The Best Known Curative Agent! These highly perfected Curative ap- pliances supply to the body mild and continuous currents of Electricity, and in so cffective a manner that the most stubborn and complicated diseases yield to their electric influence after avery other plan of treatment has failed. They arc applicable to either sex, the young and old; and, although applied externally by the patient himself, exert a beneficent and recuperative influence throughout the cntire economy. The electric action begins at once, as soon ag the Belt or Band is applied, and the effects are perceptible almost from the start. Cases regarded incurable and of years standing, yield to their mild but wonderful influence. In no case can the application be attended with the least harmful effects. The action pene- trates every bodily organ, and thus pro- motes Digestion, Excretion, Nutrition, and Circulation, restoring health and vigor to the debilitated constitution. Their many valuable qualitics and adaptation for medical purposes ob- tained for them at once full recognition from scientists and the e of the med- ical profession at home and abroad. They combine in the utmost degree efficiency, comfort in application, and cconomy, and are self-applicable by the patient himself, for the speedy and ef- fectual cure of Nervous, Chronic, and Functional Diseases; among others the following: Rhoumatism, Spermatorrheea, Neuralgia, Nervousness, Dyspopsia, Indigestion, Constipation, Epilopsy, Soiatioa, Paralysis, Lumbago, Female Complalnts, Aches and Pains, Spinal Diseases, General Debility, Catarrh, Head Troubles, Nervous Complaints, Nervous Debility, General lll-Health, Liver Complaint, Deafness, _Kidney Disease, Decline, eto. . ma~DESCRIPTIVE PAMPRLET and THE ELECTRIC QUARTERLY A large ILLUSTRATED JOURNAL, containing valuable information and Jull particulars,may be had fres.
