    In issuing the present Pamphlet, Messrs. Darlow & Co. are happy to state that for ten years past their inventions have stood the test of public experience, with increasing reputation from their acknowledged curative power in some of the most intricate cases. The Magnetine Appliances are recommended by many eminent members of the medical profession, and patronised by some of the highest families in the kingdom, including ladies and gentlemen of Her Majesty’s household. Members of both Houses of Legislature, clergymen of various deno¬ minations, Officers in the Army and Navy, gentlemen of the legal, scientific, and literary professions, merchants, bankers, and persons in almost every grade of society. They are largely used in hospital practice, and by many benevo¬ lent persons for distribution amongst the suffering poor. Very numerous letters of appreciation of these Appliances are constantl}^ being received. Some of these, from regard to the wishes of the writers, cannot be made public; but Messrs. Darlow & Co. have, however, much pleasure in appending, in the following pages, a selection from such as they are authorised to use. The originals may be seen at their Office, 443, West Strand, London, W.C. FRAU D. In order to prevent the public from im¬ position, Messrs. Darlow & Go. beg to call attention to their which is stamped on all their Appliances. MARK. Magnetine ONE THOUSAND POUNDS will be paid by Messrs. Darlow & Co. to any one who will prove that Zinc and Copper Chains (pretendedly curative galvanic contrivances) have not, in many cases, produced bad sores and painful abrasions of the skin. Failing the acceptance of this challenge, Messrs. Darlow & Co. denounce those unscrupulous advertisers who profess to have introduced some extra¬ ordinary arrangement of zinc and copper for the production of Galvanism, without chemical action or any inconvenience whatever.
