The fundamental principle of the method is the ‘absorption of ezygen™ into the system. The oxy- gen is transmitted by means of thi Electropoise ‘*Victory” to the capilla ries of the blood, thence tt is dis. seminated throughout the entire sys- tem, revivifying and building up the wasted and diseased tissues and assist- ing the various organs of the body in_performing their allotted functions, The Electropoise ‘*Victory” is espe- icacious in the treatinent of .
