From among ihe thousand cf Testimonials to the extraordinary Curative power of th<<so Galvanic Appliances, wo extract the following as being horoughly reliable :- TO TnE EDITOR OF THK '< CHRISTIAN WORLD." Sir, —Knowing (hat your valuable journal has ever been a madhim of (loin? good, not only to the smils ofrnen, but also to their bonks, &s eiinoPtl by the great interest you have ever taken in the benevolent movements of the day, I have tnkrn the liberty to address yon upon a subject which often appears in your advertising columns, but which I fe:ir, eithar through itrnorancc of its prcat value or the fear of being duped, is overlooked by a very largo number of your reavers. I allude to medical galvanism, as applied for the enre of dieFn'ae, but more especially that system of self-application invented by Mr Pulvorruacher. Many of the cases which have conic beforo me havo been treated for months. aiuT sotn« for years, by men of undoubted ability and Pkiil in the mfdicsl pro fession, who have tafecn the utmost pains, and px haiisted every resource of the apothecary in vain, have been ctixefl by Pulvormacher'R system in v fow weeks. I will not say that ev<"iry case has mot V7iih like results, but I do affirm that the proportion of success which baa attended my f =eblo efforts during the last two or three years would bo sufficient to establish a first-class reputation for any morlical man, especially considering that nearly all the patients had been under good medical treatment, and many of them had been given up as hopeless. Will you allow me to recite », few facts ? NEURALGIA. P'Fifteen months since I lent a 10a 6d band to a lady who tad been a great sufferer from nkttralgia for four months. She Btateii ttat Fhe had been under the csre of two eminent medical men (whos ■■ names che gavp), but thit Fhe had not obtained the smallest relief ; she had not been able to get one hour's sound sleep for many weeks; that she wa3 almost in dis traction from the constant pevprity of the pain. I placed the band upon her head, requesting her to wear it till the pain eeasco, I ca'lrd upon her a week after, when she excressed her deep gratitude for my Wndncs, stating-that she was entirely free from pain, and had slept Roundly all ni<rht for several nights, and that her strength was rapidly recovering. NERVOUS DEBILITY. Last summer a gentleman wro c to me from Hor bury complaining of ereat nervous debility and prostration. He had tried medical aid in v*in. Ho feared his age was against him, being near 70 but if 1 thought there was hope he would try. I advised him to try the 50a combined band. He did not ro ceive any great benefit for several trial?, wrote me one or two despairing letters, but I encouraged him to persbvere. I heard nothing of him from October nniil six weeks since, when he wrote ra» a letter ex pressing Us gratitude in no measured terms, stating that he was quite recovered; that he had enjoyed ihe best winter's health during the last winter which he had known for many years. RHEUMATISM. Thirteen months ago I met a well-known and highly respectable solicitor of this town, walking at a very feeble pace, as if in great pain, with a staff in one hand and the other hand stretched out as s'iff as fit had neither life nor power. I took the liberty to stop him and «sk the nature of his complaint. He informed me that he w»s a great Fufferer from rheu matism, which extended from the shoulders to the tip of his fingers, earning his arm to become quite stiff; that he had received the best medical afivice, got no relief, but was in great pain night and day. I strongly advised him to try a galvanic band, ■which he ultimately desired I would obtain for Mm It reathed from the shoulder to the pa'm 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 his shoulder with perfect ease, ex claiming, " Thanks to you, Seager; you are a capital doctor." In three months he was perfectly recovered, and has had no return o' the malady WEAKNESS IN LOTNS. Last October a minister wrote me from Rugby' stating that he suffered severe pain, attended with great weakness in the 'oins and legs, so that he could not rise from his chair or walk anywhere without halp. I advised him to get a spine band for the loids, and a narrow one for the legs. He wrote to me a few weefrs ago. expressing his warmest jrr-ftitnde. and Rtating that in three weeks fiom the time he com menced to wear the bards he was so far recovered aa o rise and walk anywtere without help. INDIGESTION. About the 3ame timn a farmer residing at Buckle sham—a gentleman well-known in fhis neighbourhood —called to seek my advice. He stated 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 fiintness ss he went about I recommended him to try the 603 combined band. He called again in six weeks, thanked me most heartily, and declared that ho ff-lt pbysiCAlly a new man. To use hi 3 own woriJ3, he said: "I have no trouble to fiat my food, or to get about anywhere, for I feel as if I had a new state iua SCIATICA. Six weeks since one of the principal tradesmen of bis town, well-known to nearly every inhabitant, crawled ioto my house with great difficulty upon a crutch and a staff. He was in such great pain as to make it difficult for him to rehearse his case. /. t last he informed me that ho hud been treated for sciatica by a highly respectable physician whom he named, but that he had candidly assured him i hat ho feared he was beyond the reach of medicine, and advised him to try galvanism ; and that he bad also recom mended him to seek my advice as to the beat 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 crutches, 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 thai he was just preparing to go a journey of several hundred miles. NEURALGIA. M.B, Norwich Road, Ipswich—About ten months since a poor woman called upon me, stating that his wife had long been a grevious sufferer from Neuralgia, in the Temples and F> oe. He said the pain was so severe, and her groans so piteous, that his life was quite miserable. I advised him No 2 Band, but he said that unfortunately he had boon out of work for six weeks, and could not rai?o more than 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, but a few weefe after, Mr Shipley, one of the Town Missionaries called upon me, and stated that he had recommended the man to conio, and that the poor woman was completely recovered, but that he feared if she had not Boon obtaiued relief she would have gone mad, for her crie3 of suffering had long been so distressing as to alarm her neighbours. He also said, the success of your Bands in that ca3e had deeply interested him in the subject of Medical Galvanism, and he has already recommended several patients. NERVOUS DEPRESSION. ElMr N, Ipswich, one of our largest drapers, called upon me in March last, to ask my opinion of his sister's case. He stated that she was in a low, nervous state, suffering from constant headache, indigestion, and general exhaustion ; she had long been .under medical care, but medicine had failed to reach her case. I advised a set of Bands arranged to cover the nervous centres, giving full directions, A few weeks since her brother eailed again, stating that the result hud been highly pleasing and satisfactory, and that all her lriends were surprised and delighted at the great improvement which had tiken place. Ipswich, Sufl'olk, JiouKKT Skager. \* We insert this letter beeiuso we know that tho writer is quite incapable of misrepresentation, and that his object is one of pure philanthropy. The testimony that he bears to the efficacy of the electrical bands and chains is certainly most remarkable. — Ed C.W. *~ : Ihe appliances are invaluable in all cases of Rheumatism Neuralgia Paralysis Headache Toothache Asthma Liver Complaint 'Heafnes3 Sciatica Lumbago Gout Indigestion Debllitr Palpitation &c, &c, &o.
