PULVERMACIIER'S
Hydro-Electric Voltaic Chains,
ARE for the first time introduced to the people
of Huntingdon and vicinity, as the most con
venient, qllectual, and strictly scientific mode of
instantly relieving and permanently curing all
NERVOUS DISEASES.
988 89
Now we know that an announcement similar to
the above meets the eye of the reader almost dai
ly, and perhaps this may be classed with many
others. But listen or you do an injustice. It is
claimed that Pulvermacher's Electric Chain, is
the only magnetic remedical agent that is secured
by patent, granted by this government, on the
ground that it was a strictly useful and scientific
article. The Chains are now on exhibition at
the Crystal Palace, and attract mach attention
from the thousands who daily visit it.
MODE OF USE,
The manner of using the chains is very simple.
The chain is first moistened with common vinegar,
and then one end of the chain in applied to the
part where the pain in Wetted, and the other end
opposite to the first. The ends of the chain should
never touch each other. At the moment of ap
plication, the most acute pain is instantly relieved,
wherever it is located, by the passing through the
part a constant current of uninterrupted electro
magnetism. In the following diseases, no other
remedy has ever given such complete and perfect
satisfaction to the patient us Pulvermacher's
Chains: Rheumatism, Painful and swelled Joints,
Pains in the Back, Deafness, Blindness, Pgaly
sis, Neuralgia in the Face, Long standing Ner
vous Headache, Palpitation of the lleart, Gener
al Debility, Dyspepsia,Female Discases,Asthana,
Contracted Joints, hr.
1000 DOLLARS
will be given to any person who will produce so
many well authenticated certificates of cure from
intelligent patients and scientific physicians, of
the above diseases, as has been performed by the
use of the Electric Chain during the past year.
ANOTHER FAf.IT.
it is truly the fact that wherever the electric
chains have been introduced, bottled nostrums and
common lard have greatly diminished in sale,
people having become disgusted with the practice
of using their stomachs for drug shops.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
The Electric Chains are highly recommended
by Professors Mott, Van Buren, Post and Canto
chan, of New York; are also in daily use in every
Hospital in that city. The chains will last for
years, are always ready for use, and produce no
injurious results, when used as directed.
FEMALE DISEASES.
The, introduction of the Electric Chain into this
country is the dawn of a now era in medicine.—
During the last twenty years, it can safely be es
timated that ten thousand females have died year
ly front this one disease,
PROLAPSUS UTERI.
It is welt known to medical inen that this com
mon disease is beyond the reach of medicine, and
that in proportion to the amount of medicine giv
.en, the More the patient is doomed to suffer, and
sooner will death close the scene.
During the last 2 veers mom than one thousand
cases of Prolapsus tirri (Ming of the womb)
ham been permanently cured in Englund and
France. Most of those cases were ladies of high
standing, who had previously tried all other kinds
of treatment with no benefit. Among the distin
guished ladies that have been cured in Paris is the
present Queen of Prance. In this country, du
ring the last year, one hundred cases have been
cured in the city of New York, many who have
allowed their names to be published for the bene
fit of those suffering With similar complaints.—
The mode of use is simply to apply one, end of a
30 lit* chain to the spine just above the hips, and
the other end upon the abdomen, and allow the
chain to remain for one hour. This to be repeat
ed four times during the twenty-four h our ,
CHRONIC RHEUMATISM.
The Electric Chains never fitil to relieve the
severe pains and swelling incident to this disease.
The worst forms of this disease readily yield to a
few applications of n chain, and in to Hugle in
stance have they failed to give instant lend, if
they did not effect a permanent ewe. All persons
who are victims of this usual winter complaint,
are kindly invited to cell nod obtain a pamphlet
of HORACE W. SMITH, Agent for Hun
tingdon county, who will also explain their mode
of use.
The electric chains can be sent by mail to any
part of the United States, by addressing (post
paid) any of the agents in the principal cities, or
Joseph Steinert, 568, Broadway Now York.
