THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,
DIRECT & TO 8T FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
TAMES HARRIS, Et.KCTHIciAN, of Towanda, respect
fully informs the public that he ha* lately procured
from New York the celebrated Fllectro-Ohemical Hath,
which has proven to he one of the iqostimportant and
wonderful discoveries of the age. from its ability to extract
minerals fruiu tlie human system.
Some eight years ago, a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals from the lx.dv,
by galvanism ; more recently, M. Verges, of New York,
an electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of
poisonous mineral- into his system in the prosecution of
his art, conceived the idea of'removing them by the same
process,.*., be succeeded in doing so, and quickly recovered.
He then applied the same mean* to others similarly af
fected. with like results. His exceeded his most
sanguine expectation*, for not only did these Bath* remove
mineral poisons, butenred nmnv diseases, some of which
were the re-utt of mineral*, and some were not.
More recent cxi>eriiiietit* liave fully contirm.-i the sin
gular power of tin* Batli to draw from the system all mi
neral* that may lie lodged therein, to the
of health. Very often person* are afflicted TIV diseases
which are lievond the comprehension of the most skilful
physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine
ral* accumulating in the system for years, taken in the
shape of calomel, lead; See. Ac. ;
The following are sonie of the diseases cured by these
hath*: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Cholie,
Chronic I'kens. Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer.
Neuralia in all it* forms, Salt Rheuin and Humors of all
kinds.
He ha* also S. B. Smith's ncwlv invented DIRECT AND
TO-A N'D-F'KO ELECTRO MAG Si ETi< M ACHIX E, which
i* a great improvement on the M.ignetic machines heretic
fore in use. With tto- aid of the Bath and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical efficicqcy of
Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is verv
great, in 'introducing medicine* into the system through
the pore.* of the skin—applying it directly to the parts af
fected, whieh give* an increase of medicinal power over
that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular
ly efficacious in all local diseases.
" I am now prepared to apitly these Baths, and also the
Machine*, at my house in the south part of the tsirough
of Towanda, or I will visit patient* at a distance, who see
unable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I am also sole agent for Bradford county, for the sU.ve
Machines. J AMFIK H ABRI9.
