! THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,
j DIRECT & TO-&-FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
TAMES If ARRIS. ELECTRICIAN, of Towanda, respect
fully informs the public that lie has lately procured
from New York the celebrated Electro-C'hemieal Bath,
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.
Some eight year= ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals from the bodv,
by galvanism : more recently, M. Verges, of New York,
an electro-gilder, having 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. aud 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 Baths remove
mineral poisons, but cured man v 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 system all mi
nerals that may he lodged therein, to the great detriment
of health. Very often persons are afflicted by diseases
which are beyond the comprehension of the most skilful
physicians, ami which arc the effect of poisonous mine
rals accumulating in the svstem for years, taken in the
shape of calomel, lead, Ac. Ac.
The following are some of the diseases cured by these
baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Cholic,
Chronic Ulcers, Glaudtilar Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer,
Ncni-.ilia in all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all
kinds.
11c has also S. B. Smith's newly invented DIRECT AND
TO-AND FRO ELECTRO M VGNKTIC MACHINE, which
is a great improvement on the Magnetic machines hereto
fore in ur. With the aid of the Jiatb and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical efficiency 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 power over
tliat of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular
ly efficacious in all local diseases.
I am now prepared to apply there Baths, and also the
Machines, at mv house in the south part of the borough
of Towanda. or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who arc
unable by reasou of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I am also sole agent for Bradford comity, for the above
Machines. JAMES HARRIS.

Hetmbold's Highly Concentrated FTvid Extract Buchu,
for Disease* of the Bladder and Kidneys, Secret DispifO*,
Strictures, Weaknesses, and all Diseases of the Sexual
Organs, whether in Male or Female, from whatever cause
they may hare originated, and no matter of how long
standing.
If you have contracted the terrible disease, which w.ben
once seated in the system, will sorely go down from one
generation to another, undermining the constitution. and
sapping the very vital fluids of life, do not trust yourself
in the hands of "Quacks, who start np every day in a city
like this, and till the papers with glaring falsehoods too
well calculate to deceive the young and those not ac
quainted with their tricks. You cannot be too careful in
uic selection of a remedy in these cases.
The fluid extract Bucnu has been pronounced by emi
nent Physicians
THE GREATEST REMEDY EVER KNOWN.
It is a medicine perfectly pleasant in its taste, and very
innocent in its action,and yet so thorough that it annihi
lates every particle of the rank and poisonous virus of this
disease ; and. unlike other remedies, it does not dry np
the disease in the blood.
Constitutional Debilitv,brought on by self-abuse, a most
terrible disease, which "has brought thousands of the hu
man race to untimely graves, thus blasting the brilliant
hopes of parents, and blighting in the bud the glorious
ambition of manv a noble youth, can be cured by this
INFALLIBLE REMEDY.
And as a medicine which must benefit everybody from the
simply delicate to the confined and despairing invalid, no
' equal is to be found, acting both as a cure and preventive
HEM GOLD'S HIGHLY CONCENTRATED
Compound Fluid Extract Sarsnpa rilla.
For purifying the Blood, removing all diseases arising
from excels of Mercury, exposure and imprudence in
life, chronic constitutional disease, arising from an im
pure state of the blood, and the only reliable and effect
ual remedy know n for the cure of Scrofula. Salt Ilheum,
Scald Head, Ulcerations of the Throat and Legs, Pains
and Swellings of the Bones. Tetter, Pimple*on the face
and all Scaly Eruptions of the Skin.
This article "is now prescribed by soine of the most dis
tinguished Physicians in the Country, and has proved
more efficient in practice than any preparation of Sar-a
parilla yet offered to the public. Several cases of secon
dary Sypbilic, Mercurial and Scrofulous diseases have en
tirely recovered in the incurable wards of our public insti
tutions, which had for many years resisted every mode of
treatment that could be devised. These cases furnish
striking examples of the salutary effects of this medicine
in arresting some of the most inveterate diseases, after the
glands were destroyed and the hones already affected.

fessors of several Medical colleges, and certificates of cures
from patients w ill be found accompanying both prepara
