THE ELECTRO-CHEMICAL BATHS OF DR. BOURNE,
Southeast Corner of Sansome and Commercial Sts., opposite the St. Nicholas Hotel, San Francisco,
Are effecting the most extraordinary CURES of Fever and Agne, Intermittent and other Fevers, Jaundice, Diseases of the Liver, Kidneys, the Genital and Urinary Organs, all Sexual Disorders, Paralysis, Neuralgia, including Tic Doloreux, Stiff Joints, and are also employed with astonishing success io
Also, all Indolent Ulcers. Tumors, Swellings, Abcesses, Cancer of the Womb, all other affections of the Womb, and Cancerous Affections geoerally, and Scrofula. These Baths seem to be Nature's own chosen medium for effecting cures where all other means would fail withont them ; and prove beyond the possibility of doubt, to all who take them, the iniquity of Medical practice which poisons the human system by administering to it calomel, arsenic, lead, zinc, iron. Antimony, quinine, iodide of potassa, and a whole host of deadly drugs which remain in the system, and are EXTRACTED BY THESE BATHS.
During nearly fifteen years I have never given even a solitary dose of oil or salts, much less any POISONOUS DRUGS, or herbs, and have NEVER seen a case in which they were requisite if Water Treatment was employed. When will the people cease to be such simpletons as to hire men to POISON and BLEED them, while they also retain on their statute books laws against poisoning, maiming and bleeding CATTLE ? Are the members of the human family less worthy of protection than ani- mals? I assert in the face of this entire State and the world at large, that there never was, is not now, and never will be, a case in which calomel, ernde mercury, quinine, arsenic, lead, zinc, iron, antimony, iodine, or any other POISON, should have been, or be, administered to the human system, or in which bleeding, cupping or leeching was required ; and further, that bundreds of thousands fill premature graves through an ill-timed or over-dose of salts or oil. Let the people ponder on these things, and if the poor and deluded victims of medical rascality desire health, I pledge the honor of one man at least, that I will so employ NATURE'S AGENCIES of Good Food, Air, Pure Water, Exercise, Clothing, the Electro-Chemical Baths, and the Sleeping and Waking Hours, that without a particle of NASTY and POISONOUS medicine, I will so arouse the powers of their systems that if there be any strength left, they shall speedily get perfectly well in body, with minds so expanded to the perception of natural philosophy, as thereafter to cause them to set their faces against all professional rogues or fools, and awake them to a knowledge of the evils of intrusting their own vital interest to the keeping of others whose interest must ever be antagonistic to their own.
Address, by letter or personally, Dr. BOURNE, Water Care Physician, Sansome street, opposite St. Nicholas Hotel, San Francisco, importer into this State of the FIRST and ONLY apparatus for giving these delightful and beneficial Electro-Chemi- cal Baths, and whose experience in their use warrants him in speaking of them in the terms he employs. They require great cantion in administering them, and Dr. Bourne never intrusts that duty to others, thus avoiding all danger.
nGySo many lying and forged certificates, and PRETENDED editorial recommendations are published, that those truthful statements of facts which Dr. Bourne could offer, are withheld; rather than ony should suppose they were merely "got up." noConsultations without charge, and charges very moderate for the benefits conferred.
IG QUICK CURE-SURE CURE-(if curable)-is the motto of Dr. BOURNE.
