THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,
D'RECT & TO & FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
TAMES HARRIS, KLKCTKICIAN, of Towanda, respect
fully iiiforms the pulilie that lie has lately procured
from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical liath,
which has proven to be one of the most 'important and
wonderful discoveries of the age. from its ability to extract
minerals from the human system.
S ime eight years ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals front the body,
by galvanism ; more recently, M. Verges, of N'ew York,
an electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of
p lisunons minerals into his system in the prosecution of
his art, conceived the idea of removing them hy the same
processes, he succeeded in doing so, and quickly recovered.
Hi- then applied the same means to others similarly af
fected, with like results. His success exceeded his most
sanguine expectations, for not only did these Baths remove
mineral poisons, hut cured many diseases, some of which
were the result of minerals, and some were not.
More recent experiments have fully confirmed the sin
gular power of this ilath to draw from the system all mi
nerals that may he lodged therein, to the great detriment
of health. Very often persons are afflicted hy diseases
which are beyond the comprehension of the most skilful
physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine
rals accumulating in the system lor years, taken in the
shape of calomel, lead. Ac. Ac.
The following are some of the diseases cured by these
liatlis: Rheumatism. Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Cholic,
Chronic Ulcers, (Handular Swellings, Scrofula. Cancer,
Neuralia in all its forms, Salt Kheum and Humors of all
kinds.
He has also S. B. Smith's newly invented DIRECT AND
TO-AXD FRO EI.ECTRO M AGNETIC M ACHINE, which
is it gri-at improvement on the Magnetic machines hereto
fore in use. With the aid of the Bath and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical cffleiency of
Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is very
great, in introducing medicines into the system through
the pores of the skin—applying it directly to the parts af
fected, which gives an increase of medicinal |>owi-r over
that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular
ly efficacious in all local diseases.
I am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the
Machines, at inv house in the south part of the borough
of Towanda. or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who are
nimble hy reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I am also sole agent for Bradford county, for the above
Machines. JAMES HARRIS.
