The distressing symptoms of NERVOUS EXHAUSTION, loss of MUSCULAR POWER, RHEUMATISM, SCIATICA, PARALYSIS, EPILEPSY, &c., are speedily removed by means of PULVERMACHER'S WORLD-FAMED GALVANIC BELTS, which convey the electric current direct to the affected parts, gradually stimulating and strengthening all the nerves and muscles, and speedily arresting all symptoms of premature waste and decay.

Extract from "Medical Press,"

April 20, 1892.

It is almost an impossibility with the ordinary means at our disposal to wash out the vagina while the patient is in the recumbent position without wetting either the bed or couch on which she lies.

It will be generally admitted that the principal value of a vaginal lavement will be lost if not administered while in the recumbent position, so that I ven. ture to hope that the appliance illustrated will be found in everyday practice to supply a want both to obstetrician, gynæcologist, and monthly nurse. By the use of this simple form of irrigator tube all wetting of the bed and patient will be avoided, whether used by the patient herself or employed by her attendant. The usual preliminary alteration of the patient's position, bringing hips to edge of bed, waterproof sheet, &c., can all be dispensed with.

The appliance consists of an ordinary funnel through which a vulcanite or glass tube passes, and which can be shortened or lengthened at will. This tube with apex of funnel is to be introduced into vagina (the former having been previously filled with water), both are now pressed firmly into the passage and held in close contact with the vulva. The lavement is then to be administered in the usual way, either by

syringe or douche, and if the funnel be properly held, the return current cannot possibly escape except round the tube into the apex of the funnel in vagina; and so finds its way out of exit pipe on side of same, to which tubing may be attached leading to vessel underneath the bed if desired.

Having experienced the comfort and saving of both time and temper by the use of the appliance described, I have no hesitation in recommending its adoption as a vast improvement on any form of vaginal tube I have ever heard of, or seen pictured in any of the various surgical instrument catalogues extant.
