THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH
AND
DIRECT & TO-&-FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
JAMES HARRIS, ELECTRICIAN - , of Towanda, respect
fully informs the public that lie lias lately procured
from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical 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 years ago, a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals from the body,
by galvanism ; more recently, M. Verges, of New York,
an electro-gilder, having suflcred 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 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 Bath to draw from the system all mi
nerals that may be lodged therein, to the gre'at detriment
of health. Very often persons are afilicted by diseases
which are beyond the comprehension of the most skilful
physicians, and which arc tne effect of poisonous mine
rals accumulating in the system for years, taken in the
shape of calomel, lead, Ac. Ac.
The following arc some of the diseases cured hy tbe*e
baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Cholic,
Chronic Ulcers, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer,
Neuralia in all its forms, Salt Itheum aud Humors of all
kinds.
He has also S.B. Smith's newly invented DIRECT AND
TO-AND FIIO ELECTRO MAGNETIC M ACHINE, which
is a great improvement on the Magnetic machines hereto
fore in ue. With the aid of the Bath and Machine, we
have at command all the available medical efficionov 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
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 my house in the" south part of the borough
of Tow anda, or I will visit patients at a distance, who are
onable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I am also sole agent for Bradford countv, for the above
Machines. JAMES HARRIS.
