ELECTRICAL DERANGEMENT PRODUCES DEATH 93 



brain and the brain dynamo dominates and con- 

 trols the body. Through all the vicissitudes of 

 life, until the final dissolution of the body, the tele- 

 grams from the brain, running along the wires of the 

 nerves control the muscles, the movements and all 

 the varied utilities of the body. In other words, the 

 mind controls the electricity of the brain, and the 

 electricity of the brain controls the body. 



If you cut a nerve or obstruct the electric cur- 

 rent, you cut oif the electric control of the brain, 

 and there is paralysis in the part of the body where 

 the electric wires are disconnected. Consumption 

 is a disease caused by a failure of the lungs to 

 draw sufficient electricity from the air to supply the 

 normal needs of the body. For lack of this electric 

 energy the whole system becomes enfeebled and 

 finally dissolved. Indigestion is a failure of the 

 stomach to supply the necessary electric energy 

 to assimilate the food. And all sickness, aches 

 and pains are nature crying for electric energy neces- 

 sary for her to fulfill her natural offices and func- 

 tions. 



Dr. Jacques Loeb, of the Chicago University, an- 

 nounced on February 22nd, 1903, that he had dis- 

 covered that muscular and nervous diseases, such 

 as St. Vitus' dance, paralysis, agitatus, locomotor 

 ataxia and sleeplessness, can be cured by adminis- 

 tering calcium salts because of their electrical 

 effects. 



He says the presence of calcium salts in the mus- 

 cles prevents their twitching; that practically all 

 nervous disease are caused by the absence of the 

 calcium, and " therefore to restore normal condi- 

 tions and effect a cure a dose of calcium salts should
