So simple that anyone can hsq them ; wonderful in reßults, and yet so gentle in action thst they may be applied to mere infants. TESTIMONIAL. we, the nnderslgnt-d. have much pleasure in testi fying that Mr J. L. Pulvhf.macher's recent improve ments in his Voltaic Batteries and Galvanic Appliances for Medical purposes are of great importance to Scientific Medicine, and that he is entitled to the consideration and support of every one disposed to further the advancement of real and useful pro gress. Signed by- Sir C L"cock, Bart., Physician to H.M; the Queen; SirH. Holland. Bart., F.R.S., PhysicianJto H.M. the Queen; Sir William Fekgtjsson, Bart., F.R.S., Phy sician to H.M. the Queen ; Sir J. R. Martin, Bart., C.8., F.R.C.S. T.R.S. ". Dr. E. SiinreKbre, F.R.C.P., Physician to n.Ti.H. tho Prince of Wales,"and Phy Ricisn to St. ATarv's Hospital: Dr. R. Qttain, F. R.0.P.. Physician to the Hospital for Conf-uurotion. Brompton. From among the thousand cf Testimonials to the extraordinary Curative power o£ these Galvanic Appliances, we extract the following as being horoueh'v reliable : — TO THE EDITOR OV THE •' CHRISTIAN WORLD." Sir —Knowing Uiat your valuable journal has ever fopen a medium of doing good, not only to the souls of men, but also to their bodies, as evincpd by the great interest you have ever taken in the benevolent movements of the day, I have taken the liberty to address you upon a subject ■which often appears in your advertising columns, bnt which I fear, either through ignorance of its great value, or the fear of beintr duped, is overlooked by a very large number of yonr readers. I allude to medical galvanism, as applied for the cure of disease, *ut more esperially that system ol Belf-appHcation invented by Mr Pulvermacher. Many of th° cases which have come before me have Tjeen treated for months, and some for years, by men of undoubted ability and skill in the medical pro fession, who have taken the utmost pains, and ex hausted every resource of the apothecary in vain, have been cured by Pulvermacher's system in v few weeks. I will not say that every case has met with like results, but I do affirm that the proportion of success which hag attended my feeble efforts during the last two or three years would be sufficient to establish a first-class reputation for any medical man, especially considering that nearly all the patients had been nn'ler good medical treatment, and many of them had been given up as hopeless. Will you allow me to recite a few facts ? NEURALGIA. Fifteen months since I lent a 10s 6d band to a lady who t-ad been a great suffprer from neuralgia for four months. She stated that she had been under the care of two eminent medical men (whos« names f>he travp). but th*t she had not obtained the smallest relief; she had not been sble to get one hour's souud Sleep for many weeks; that she was almost in dis traction from the constant Beverity of the pain I placed tho band upon her head, requesting her to wear it tin the pain ceasod. I call-d upon her a week after, when she expressed her deep gratitude for my kind<->e°B, stating that she was entirely free from pain, and had slept soundly all night for several nfghts, and that her strength was rapidly recovering. NERVOUS DEBILITY. Last BVimmer a gentleman wro c to me from Hor l>ury complaining of great nervous, debility and prostration. He had tried medical aid in v»in. He feared his ase was against him, being near 70. but if 1 thought there was hope he would try. I advised him to try the 60s combined band. He did not re ceive -ny great benpfit for several trials, wrote me one or two despairing letters, but I encouratred him to persevere I heard nothing of him from October mrtil srs wpeks since when he wrote me a letter ex pressing Hb gratitude in no measured tprnis, stating that ho was quite recovered ; that he hsd enjoysd the beat winter's health during the laßt winter which he had known for many yea-s. RHEUMATISM. Thirtcn months aeo I met "a well-known and highly reppectnble solicitor of this town, walking at a very feeble race, as if in great pain, with a staff in one hand and thp other hand stretchert out as stiff an if it had neither life nor power. I t'>ofc the liberty to pfcop him and «* the nature of his complaint. He informed me that hf was a great sufferfr from rheu matism, which extended from the Phoulders to the tip of biR fingers, causing his arm to become quite stiff; that be had received the best medical advice, got no relief, but was in great pain night and day. I stronsrly advised to him try a galvanic band, which he ultimately desired I would obtain for him It rea-hed from the shoulder to the palm of the hand, coiled all round the arm. Ten days after he com menced to wear it he called upon me, placed the afflicted arm over hie shoulder with perfect ease, ex claiming, •• Thanks to you, Seager; you are a capital doctor." In three monthß he was perfectly recovered, and has had no return of the malady WEAKNESS IN LOTNS. Last October a minister wrote me from Rugby, rtating that he suffered severe pain, attended with great weakness In the loins and legs, so that he could, not rise from his chair or walk anywhere without help. I advised him to get a spine band for the loirs and a nariow one for the Iprs. Ho wrote to me a few weeks ago. expressing his warmest gratitude, rad statiDg that in three weeks from the time he com menced to wear the bands he was so far recovered as o rise and walk anywhere without help. INDIGESTION. About the same tim* a farmer residing at Buckle sham—a gentleman well-known in this neighbourhood —called to seek my advice. He staged that his diges tion was 30 weak that his stomach rejected the simplest diet, even a bowl of milk from his own dairy (which of course was minus the chalk), that he often felt as he should fall on the fields from sheer faintness bs he went about I recommended him to try the 503 combined band. He called again in six weeks, thanked me most heartily, and declared that he felt physically a new man. To use his own words, he said: "I have no trouble to eat my food, or to get about anywhere, for I feel as if I had a new stamina SCIATICA. Sis weeks since one of the principal tradesmen of his town, ■well-known to nearly everr inhabitant, crawled into my house with great difficulty upon a crutch and a staff. Re was in such great pain as to make it difficult for him to rehearse his case. At last he informed me that ho had been treated for sciatica by a highly respectable physician whom he named, but that he had candidly assured him I hat he feared he was beyond the reach of medicine, and advised him to try galvanism ; an 1 that he had alpo recom mended him to seek my advice as to the bet mode of treatment. I obtained for him a suitable band,which he at once commenced to wear, and in a fortnight he cast away his cratches, and can now walk erect, and attpnd to his business. He told me a few days since that he had no pain now; only a little weakness remained, which he hoped would soon pass off ; and that he was just preparing to go a journey of several hundred miles. NEURALGIA. M.B, Norwich Road. Ipswich—About ten months since a poor wom»-n called upon me, stating that his wife had long been a grevious sufferer from NKURAiaii in the Tkmplbs and Fj«ce He said thfl pain was so severe-, tnd her groans so piteous, that his life was quite miserable. I advised him No 2 Baud, but he said that unfortunately he had been out of work for six weeks, and could not raise more <han two-thirds of the cost, but my sympathy had been so aroused by his statement that I gave him the remainder from my own pocket. He_ never returned to report, b^t a few weeks after,Mr Shipley, one of the Town Missionaries called upon me, and stated that he had recommended the man to come and that the poor woman was completely recovered, but that he feared If she had not soon obtained relief she would have gone mad, for her cries of suffering had long been po distressing as to alarm her neiehbo urs He also t»id, the success of yonr Bands in that case had deeply interested him in the subject of Medical Galvanism, and he has already recommended several patients. NERVOUS DEPRESSION. Mr N, Ipswich, one of our largest draper*, called upon me in March last, to ask my opinion of his sister's caie. He stated that sbe was in a low, nervous state, suffering from constant headache, indigestion, and eeneral exhaustion ; she had loDg been under medical care, but medicine had failed to reach her case I advised a set of Band 3 arranged to cover the nerv'one centres giving full directions. A few weeks since her brother called again, stating that the result had been hisbly pleasine and satisfactory, and that all her friends were surprised and delighted at the gre*t improvement which had taken place. Ipswich, Suffolk, Robrrt Seager * * We insert this letter because we know that the writer is qu*te incapable of misrepresentation, and that his object is one of pure philanthropy.
