It has made rapid transit possible; it made mining feasible; it has been a source of many comforts well as riches. In no other line has it given mare practical results and more satisfaction than in the practice of medicine. It has aided the work of every physiéian—no matter of what school of medicine. It has rendered inestimable service to the surgeon, and the rapidity with which it has developed as a curative agent as- tounds those who are not famillar with its working. Among the first physicians to practically apply electricity in the treatment of disease were the founders of as e crecited the first cures of cancer. Rap- idly following their initial treatment, the use of the X-Ray in every part of the country has been rapidly followed. The medical journals teem with successes gained by its use. The Electro-Chemic Specialists beipg the first to secure re- sults, have not rested in their efforts to keep In advance of all other practitione It is thus that in the combination of elec- tricity and chemistry in the Eiectro- Chemic X-Ray and Current they achieve successes where many others have made fallures along somewhat similar lines. The entire absence of paln in electrical treatment and the ease of its application, combined with its stimulating and reju- venating qualities make the Electro- Chemic treatment advisable in cases of chronic disease, where the patient may * .
