RICHARD'S Electric Bath Rooms and Office Ho. 607 Mynster St., Council Bluffs. One Square North of the P. O. Building. Richards on Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday. Electricity isa riemarkable naturalagent which has long been known and utilized as a reme dy fordscase and continued experience has enlarged its sphere of useful- ness and improved its appliances by which it is employed until its utility and virtue has become second to no other known remedy, in the treatment of certain forms of disease. This agent is employed here in all its most serviceable forms by the aid of large batteries, stattc machines, elec cabinet baths, electric water baths, the elec- tric chair and electrodes for treating all parts of the body. We are prepared to do all that can be done with these great remedies. In cases of Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Paralysis, Spinal Irritation, Rectal Diseases, Nervous Diseases in females arising from Uterine disorders and many other chronic and subacute troubles, it stands at the head of all known remedies or methods cure. A thorough study of it for years and the successful treatment of hundreds of cases, after all other remedies had fail- ed, is suflicient evidence of its great worth and perfectly satisfies us with its good eflects on the diseased body. ~ In the great hospitals and sanitarians of America and Europe, electricity is leading all other methods of treatment. In all leading colleges the professors are teaching electricity as one of the potent remedies and a special chair is appointed in many of them, Many of the ablest physicians of all schools are making aspecialty of electricitv to the exclusion of almost every(hinsr else. This great remedy has often fallen into disrepute by being recommended an used by persons, and physicians, perfectly ignorant of its properties and powers, who would as often advise and use the wrong current as the right one or depend upon it in_diseases for which it is not adopted. We are sure that when the people become educated in the use of clectricity for many diseases with which the body is afllicted and find the great good therein, the medicines and patent righted nos- trums upon which they now rely will grow old and dusty on the shelves, - Electricity is naturc’s great remedy and to fully understand and skilfully apply it is our eflort and aim in life, For further information call at the office or send for de- scriptive and illustrated pamphlet on Eleetricity and Electro Therapeutic Baths, by DR.
