PULVERMACHER'S ilydro-Electric Voltaic Chains, A 10 ; for the first thee introduced to the people of Huntingdon and vicinity, as the most con venient, eficetintl, and strictly scientific, mode oi instantly relieving end permanently curing all NERVOUS DISEASES. Now we know that nn announcement similar to the above meets the oyo of the reader all'host dai ly, and perhaps this may be classed with many otheyo. But listen or,you do us injustice. It is claimed that Pulvormacher's Electric Chain, is the only magnetic retnedical agent that is nerved by patent, 4ranted by this government, on the ground that it was a strictly useful and scientific article. The Chains are mow on exhibition at the Crystal Palace, and attract cinch attention from the thousands who daily visit it. MODE OE' USE. The manner of using the chains is very simple. The chain is first moistened with common rinvar, and then one end of the chain is applied to the part where the pain is located, and the other cud uppostte to the first. The ends of the chain should never touch each other. At the moment of ap plication, the most acute pain is instant/1j relieved, wherever it, h. located, by the passing ffirough the part a equstant current of uninterrupted electro magnetism. In the following diseases, no other remedy has over given such complete and perfect satisfaction to the patient as Pulvermacher's Chains: Rheumatism, Painful and strolled Joints, Paha in the Back, Deafness, Blindness Paraly sis, Neuralgia in the Face, Long standing Ner vous Headache, Palpitation of the Heart, Gener al Debility, Dyspepsia, Female Diseases, Asthma, Contracted Joints, &c. 1060 DOLLARS will be given to any person who will produce so 'natty 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 FA'JT. It is truly rhe• 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 practise of using their stomachs for drag shopst RECOMMENDATIONS. The Electric Chains are highly recommended by ProleAsors Mott, Van Buren, Post and Cacao (Man, of New York; are also in daily use in every Hospital in that city. The chains will last fur years, ore always ready for use, and produce no injurious results, when used no dimmed. FEMALE DISEASES. The introduction of the Electric Chain into this country is the dawn of a new era in medicine.— During the loot twenty years, it can safely be es timated that ten thousand females have died year ly from this ace disease, PROL APSUS UTERI. It is well known to medical men that this com mon disease is beyond the reach of medicine, and that in pronorlion to the amount of medicine giv en, the more the patient is doomed to 'miter, and sooner will death close the scene. During the last 2years more than one thousand CI.. of Prolapses Uteri (fitlling of the womb) have been permit:en*/ cured in England 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 boen cured iu Paris is the present Queen of France. In this country, du ring the last year, one hundred cases have been cored in the city of New York, many mhu 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 link chain to the spine just above the hips, and the other end upon the abdomen, and allow the chain to remain for ono hour. This to be repeat ed four times during the twenty-four hours. CHRONIC RHEUMATISM. The Electric Chains never fail to relieve the were pains nud swelling incident to this disease. The worst forms of this disease readily yield to a few applications of a chain, nod in no single in stance have they failed to give instant relief; if they did not effect n permanent core. All persons who are victims of this usual winter complaint, are kindly invited to call and obtain a pamphlet 110111 ACE W. MEM Agent for I fun tingdon county, who will also explain their mode of use. 'l'Weelectric chains can be sent by mail to any part of the United States, by addressing (post paid) any or thu signals in the principal cities, or Joseph Steinert, 568, Broadway Now York. jUSEPII gTEINEitT, Gen.
