THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL
DIRECT & TO & FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
TAMES HARRIS, ELECTRICIAN, of Towanda, respect
fully informs the public that he has lately procured
from Xew 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 bodv,
hy galvanism ; more recently, M. Verges, of Xew 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 hy 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 lie lodged therein, to the great detriment
of health. Very often persons are afflicted by diseases
which arc oeyond the comprehension of the most skilful
physicians, and which are the etl'ect 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 by these
baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Cholir,
Chronic Ulcers, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer!
Neuralia in all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all
kinds.
He has also S. B. Smith's newly invented DIRECT AND
TO-AND FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC M ACHINE which
is a great 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 efficiency of
Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is vcrv
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.
1 am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the
Machines, at my house in the south part of the borough
of Towanda, or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who are
unable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo
derate prices.
I ain also sole agent for Bradford county, for the above
Machines. JAMES HARRIS.

much more advantageously, will enable hiin to increase
thp generous confidence which has hitherto been vouch

favor of his old customers, and invites the public general
