tonic treatment_. If there be no _hemorrhage_, properly, but only too profuse or too long-continued flow of catamenia, the discharge may commonly be stopped by one or two treatments, of eight to ten minutes each, with the uterine electrode, as prescribed above. PROLAPSUS UTERI. (_Falling of the Womb._) Take the B D current, of good medium force, and give _general tonic treatment_ (see page 95), on alternate days, ten minutes, passing briefly over the several parts. After this, treat five to eight minutes with uterine electrode, in the manner prescribed for _menorrhagia_. Then close the sitting by removing the uterine instrument, substituting the sponge-cup as P. P., and treating with it externally, about five minutes, over the pelvic region, while N. P. is stationed on the spine, at the first or second dorsal vertebra. On the _intervening_ days, treat only with the uterine electrode, as above prescribed. LEUCORRH[OE]A. (_Whites._) Take A D current, _very mild_ force. Introduce the vaginal electrode, N. P., until it meets the uterus, and manipulate with P. P. over the dorsal vertebrae five to eight minutes, three times a week. Once or twice a week, on the intervening days, give _general tonic treatment_. Omit treatment altogether, for one or two weeks, once in two to three months. Considerable time is often required for the cure of old cases. SPERMATORRH[OE]A. The points to be gained are, to reduce the action of the amatorial organs of the brain and the secretion of the _testes_, and to contract and strengthen the tissue of the seminal vesicles and the prostrate gland. Take the B D current. First, treat the lowest part of the cerebellum, on both sides of the spinal cord, with a _mild_ force; using P. P. upon these organs of amativeness, and N. P. on the dorsal vertebrae. Treat so some three minutes. Next, increase the current to medium force; and, taking a handled cup or mug, holding a pint to a quart, mostly filled with tepid water, drop the _penis_ and _testicles_ into it, along with the tin electrode P. P., and move N. P., _long cord_, over the lumbar vertebrae. Treat in this manner about five minutes. Then place the P. P. on the pelvis, close above the penis, and again treat with N. P., _long cord_, over the small of the back, two or three minutes. Treat about three times a week. IMPOTENCE. Take B D current, moderate force. Treat exactly as in spermatorrh[oe]a, except with _reversed
