I AMES HARRIS. ELECTRICIAN, of Towanda, rrspeet
fully informs the public that he has lately procured
| from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical Bath.
| which has proven to hi- one of the most 'important and
| wonderful discoveries of the age, from its ability to extract
' minerals from the hnman system.
! Some eight years ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco
l vcred the process of extracting minerals from the bodv,
by galvanism : more recently, M. Verges, of New York,
an _ electro-gilder, hating suffered from the introduction of
poisonous minerals into his system in the prosecution of
his art. conceived the idea of removing them by the same
processes, he succeeded in doing so, and quickly recovered.
He 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 Bat hs remove
mineral poisons, hut cared 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 Bath to draw from the systpm all mi
nerals that may he lodged therein, to the great detriment
of health. Very often persons arc afflicted by diseases
which are lieyond the comprehension of the most skilful
physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine
rals accumulating in the system for years, taken in the
shape of calomel, lead. Are. Arc.
The following are some of the diseases cured bv these
i hatha: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy. Painter's Cholic,
.! Chronic Ulcers. Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer,
| Ncuralia in all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all
' j kinds.
lie has also S. B. Smith's newlv invented DIRECT AND
TO-AND-FRO ELECTRO M AGNETIC MACHINE, which
j i* a great improvement on the Magnetic machines hereto
i fore in use. With the aid of the Bath and Machine, we
j have ut command all the available medical efficiency of
i 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
tccted, which gives an increase of medicinal power over
