In jumping over this team he cleared them without a catch, except arcmnant of the smashed buggy catching ma tug and breaking that.

RICHARD'S Electric Bath Rooms and Office . 607 Mynster St., Council Bluffs. One Square North of the P. O. Building. Treatment and Baths Given Ladies by Mrs. Dr « Richards on Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday. Electricity isa riemarkable naturalagent which has long been known and utilized as a reme dy fordsease 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 iis most serviceable forms by the aid of large batteries, static machines, electric 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 Discases 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 sufiicient evidence of its great worth and perfectly satisfies us with its good effects on the dise: 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 ercvyllvins clse. 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 electricity for many diseases with which the body 1s afilicted 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 effort and aim in life, For further information call at the office or send for de- scriptive and illustrated pamphlet on Electricity and Electro Therapeutic Baths, by DR.
