FACKLER'S 1312 Derry Street Store Open Every Evening on and After December'lßth • A Remarkable Scientific Discovery Tells How Nerve Insulation Quickly Stops Pain and Allays The Inflammation. Even Rheumatism. Sciatica and Neuritis Yield to Marvelous New Discovery The nerves of your body are like electric wires. They carry the nerve energy (neuro-electricity) which is generated in the brain to all the cells and tissues. The nerve sheaths are insulated to resist a current of aout 4-1000 of a volt, as has been proven with the aid of Lord Kelvin's galvanometer, an in strument so sensitive and accurate that for the first time it is now possible to measure the strength of nerve currents. It has been found that wherever acute Inflammation oegprs the in sulation of the nerveie Is broken down, making it difficult, and often impossible, for nature to heal the surrounding cells. Germs cannot live In healthy tissue; It is only through damaged cells that they thrive and spread. Obviously, therefore, the right way to success fully treat Inflammatory disease Is to quickly repair the damaged in sulation and enable nature to re store the diseased tissue to a THURSDAY EVENING, HELP POST OFFICE HANDLE BIG RUSH You Can Assist Tired Mailmen If You Will Follow Instructions To facilitate the handling of Christ mas mail and to prevent congestion during the holidays.
