THE SYMPATHETIC TONE CURE. ‘The charms which music hath to soothe the savage fare not to be compared in potency, if we are to Miss Augusta Vescelius, with its power for the ire of disease. “(When its therapeutic value is appreci- ” says Miss Vescelius, “music will considered as cessar in the treatment of disease as air, water and oa.” ‘The music cure process, {t appears, {s, first, to discover © ho cause and character of the malady. This having been } eccomplished, you must next “determine its key in pm” and apply the “sympathetic tone cure," and yn. the disease is done for.
