Truths for the Afflicted.


This Splendid Establishment was Inaugural
ted in February, 1850, by an association Of SCI
entific gentlemen, that there might be Medi-
cal Establishment in San Francisco where the
afflicted could find scientific and honorable, as
well as humane treatment. OuTRAGEoU 5
QUAcKERY had so long run rampant over af-
flicted humanity that all confidence was being
lost in the Medical Profession, and II was time
that there should be an Institute where the
afflicted could apply with certainty Of hon
orable and scientific treatment. And the re-
suit has thus far exceeded the most sanguine
expectations Of its founders.
Thousand have been made to rejoice in
returned health, who had been basely trifled
with by the numerous vampires that abound
upon this coast, the chief of whom has been
obliged to close out and leave the country; but
still there are some left of whom the afflicted
should beware.
The basis of the treatment at the institute Is
the Electropathic System. The Physician and
Surgeon, who has been Professor in one Of
the best Medical Colleges in America, and who
has made II special study Of Chronic Diseases
for the last fifteen years, IS thoroughly quail
fed to treat by medicine, and will warrant a
perfect and permanent cure in the shortest
possible time. All long-standing cases Of dis
ease, no matter what may be their nature give
way under the course Of treatment pursued at
the Institute, and the result is perfect health
and a strengthened constitution where IL has
been injured.
1t woull be useless to enumerate the diseases,
as it would be occupying space to no purpose.
Every nameable complaint to which humanity
is liable can be cured by the Faculty at the
Institute.
No mercury is used upon any consideration.
All medicines prescribed are ve9etable and in
cases where the patient can remain in the CITY,
and wishes to be treated by Electricity, no

electrified, which makes them much more ac-
tive, and destroys all nauseous taste, making
them rs pa!atuble as wine.
The Directors wish to speak OF specialities
more extensively than Of other complaints be-
cause empires have used more deception
about them than they have about the regular
troubles OF the human family. And first on
the list is that dreadful malady denOminated
Seminal Weakness, or Spermaturrhna, a com
plant which not only affects the body with
pain and lassitude, making life burden, but
affects the brain, creating INSANITY. 1t
drives more men to the mad house than all
other diseases added together. by the Flee
tropatic System this terrible trouble gives way,
and the hitherto emaciated victim is made to
rejoice in perfect health,
Next upon the list Is Nenereal, In all its ter
rible forms and phases.
II is impossible to paint this disease in col
or5 sufficiently terrible TO do it justice. 1t ia
the most awful disease to which the human
family is liable, and if not arrested when ac-
tive, making the victim = loathsome mass OF
living corruption. 1t is also one Of the most
ins;dious diseases in the world. While the ex-
terror shows no symptom, the horrible disease
is sapping the foundations OF life, preparing
20 attack its vital parts, as soon as the patient
shall by some indiscretion weaken the system.
Reader, il you have ever had this awful dis
ease in any form whatever, call at once at the
Institute, and the Physician there will examine
you and tell you II you have any Of the virus
in your blood. In such cases consultations
are always gratis, and should you have any
Of the dreadful complaint about you, a cure
will be warranted in a short time, or no charg-
es will be made for services.
