who had taken advantage of every available
means that promised relief, but without sue

who, in an incredibly short space of time,

is gentleman who seeks. not by defamation

rear the superstructure of his own upon the
ruin of another's fame. The Doctor con-
ducts his Institute in such manner that
must be gratifying to all his patients. He
examines, advises, and recommends without
charge, and the patient, after hearing his
terms for treatment, can accept or reject at
pleasure. In no case does the Doctor make
a charge unless he effects a cure. This he
is able to do, because be feels the confidence

that confidence. Persons afflicted with either

AT LEAST Two-rHIRDs OF THE DISEASES
with which the human family are afflicted,
are brought on by the want of attention to
the condition of the Blood. Whenever the
Blood becomes impure, no matter from wha,
cause, the effects of such impurity are i'm
mediately felt, either in one way or
another; and unless measures are at once
taken to remove SUCH impurities the whole
system becomes affected, and a long fit of
sickness and sometimes death is the result.
DR.. Samuel Adams, we1l-known Chemist of
San Francisco, has discovered certain herbs
and roots. mostly of California growth, which
he has combined with Sarsaparilla and Iodide
OF Potas' and succeeded in producing Medi-
cine that, while it is entirely harmless in
every particular. will in short time COM
pletely eradicate from the Blood all impuri-
ties, of whatever nature. and will restore the
patient to perfect ROBUST HEALTH. The prep

The Grand Jury, convened at the

We have had under consideration se-

We have visited the county Jail, ant
find that there are five prisoners cot

to the sides of the wooden perpendicu

and to prevent the escape of prisoner
in the temporary absence of officers from
their watch.
We also visited the County Hospital
which we found in cleanly and vel

IMPORTANT MEDICAL DISCOVERY
Electricity as a Curative Agent

N7 HEN 1T WAS PROMULGATED BY
w the Directors of the ELECrROPATHIC
INrrrTUTE, that disease could be entirely
eradicated from the system without the use
of poisonous drugs, the thoughtless and
those who do not look deeply into cause and
, effect secuted the assertion as chimerical, and
wrote long articles replete with sophistry,
claiming that only through the digestive sys-
TEN could the blood be purged oethe poisons
which constitute disease a great cry went
up from these interested in the continued
supremacy of the old system of one poison to
cure another. All of the empyrics joined in
the chorus, and in their ignorance laughed at
the new system, circulating base stories of its
ill-success, and quoting imaginary cases as
proofs Time has demonstrated their dis
honesty. After five years of uninterrupted
success the Electropathic system is the lead
ing idea in medical jurisprudence, while by
the old system, physicians were content to
cure one in every five cases, there, were those
who were diving deep into the science of the
curative art among these were the Electro
! pathists; finally, it was discovered that the
| failure in most of the cases of organic dis
ease, was entirely due to the machine. TAX
ing this view of the case, DR.. J. H. Josselyn,
after years of experiment, has perfected an
| Electropathic Instrument which will cure any
| disease which flesh is heir, always to be un-
| derstood that the case is not so far advanced
as to show destruction of the vital tissues.
We do not claim that the use of medicines
may not Re more advantageousi in some cases,
but, that in connection with medicines, it will
perform a cure much sooner than without,
and also that diseases hitherto deemed incur
able, can be cured by this system but the d.
rectors would take this opportunity to info-m
| invalds that the Resident Physician is a
regular graduate, and has had a large exper-
ence in the treatment of diseases, both with
and without the aid of electricity, he has also
discovered several "electic" vegetable reme-
dies that will cure almost any nameable dis
ease, which he will send to any part of the
Pacific Coast upon receipt of q complete des-
cription of the disease with which the appli-
cant may be afflicted, and will warrant a per-
feet cure in all cases. where the medicines are
used according to directions, and more es-
pecial in cases of FEMALE TROUBLES,
,ohere great care and caution are necessary
to favorable result. From early morn until
late at night, this instrument is employed,
imparting health and strength to all who are
SO fortunate as to obtain its services. Dis
eases (Which by the old system took months,
or even years to cure, are now cured in few
days or weeks The cost, too, is not so great
as by the old system. besides the saving of
time. Connected with this system is the re-
