JOHN HABLET, Esn., Norwood Hotel, West Nor- wood, writes, April 2nd, 1891.—'' Some two years ago 1 purchased one of your Electropnhic Belts, but at that time neglected to use it. Some three or four months ago, however, 1 had a languid, depressed feeling, and made up my mind to try it, and the result is I never felt better in my life. So much good has it done me, that a week or two ago I purchased a Belt for my wife, who received great benelit from it. I recom- mend the appliance as a great boon to all who require new life put into them." LADY'S ELECTROPATHIC BELT. DR. ANDREW WILSON'S OPINION. 44 The Medical Battery Co.' s Belt has been frequently recommended as a genuine electri- cal appliance which the public may purchase with safety and satisfaction. In these days of electrical quackery it is highlj' satisfactory to find such an enterprise for the development of electrical manufacture on a large scale so successfully carried out at their commodious Itemises ( 52, Oxford Street, London, W.)." RHEUMATISM. Miss A. M. GOWAB, 2, Keyford Terrace. Frome, writes, March 14th, 1891.— " You will remember that on August 2nd, 1889, I came to you as a great sufferer from Bheumatisin ( for over twelve years), and you recommended an Electro- pathic Belt, which I purchased and wore for nearly a year, with wonderful results. 1 was then again troubled with bad attacks, when I wrote to you in July. 1890, and asked if you would recommend a stronger Belt, which you did, and I purchased a No. 4, which I have worn daily up to six weeks ago with the greatest possible benefit, having had no bad attack throughout the time, even though the winter was most severe.
