ELEcrRorATHY.-The readers of this article are
particularly requested to read the advertisement
Of the 'Electropathic Institute," 645 Washington
street, San Francisco, to be found in another col
umn of this paper. The remarkable cures that
have been effected by DR.. J. H. Josseyn, the Resi-
dent Physician of the Institute during the past
years, has game for this establishment a reputa-
tion that has never been equalled by any medical
establishment on this coast. In of female ir
regularities especially, Dr. JOsselyn has gained
enviable reputation and the spacious parors of the
Institute continually occupied by ladies seeking
relief from their troubles.
DR.. Josselyn pays particular attention to the
treatment of cases in the interior Of the State and
upon receipt of full description of the disease of
which the app icant is unfortunate as to be af-
ficted, accompanied with the real or fictitious ad-
dress, sends per Wells, Fargo 4 Co., medicines
that he warrants to cure the disease, without the
slightest injury to the system He uses no mercu-
ry or mineral poisons The remedies used are
known 'sElectrc,' - and 1t of them are of his
own discovery. Persons placing tht elves under
the treatment of DIR. J. H. Josselyn may rely upon
not only receiving and successful treatment
but upon his discretion and secrecy.

SUCCESS THE TRUE STANDARD OF MERIT.-If there
is any truth in the above sold adage," then it will
apply to the Eectropathic Institute of San Francis
CO. This establishment was opened to the public
about SIX years since. under the management of
Dr. ]. Fl. Josselyn who has during that time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand cases of disease to
u
small number, who were too far gone, having be
overdosed with poisonous drugs by some of the nu-
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Physician, DR..
H. Josselyn, has received and replied not less
than six thousand five hundred letters, besides
giving his personal attention to all the patients

GRAND sucoEss.-During the past year, some
half dozen ''bogus Medical Institutes in San Fran
cisco have "handed in their checks" and closed
their doors. Without an except n, the establish
ments alluded to were conducted by individuals
that knew little nothing of the pructice of medi
cine, and were established for the purpose of ch-
ing money from the sick and unfortunate. For q
number Of years these fellows succeeded in swnd-
ling their victims without let h,ndrance, in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de-
termlned to put . stop to the imposition. They
cordingly established the .Electropath1c Institute
At 6i5 Washngton street. and placed it in charge of
DR.. J. II. Jossehn, gentleman IN every way COM
pet Mt for the position with instruction to warrant
perfect cur. in all cases undertaken by him. or
refund the money. They advertise largely and the
respectabillty of the Institute was 30 well know
tnat the SICK locked to the once fOr advice and
treatment in arms. The effect has begun 70 be
made manifest Some six of the medical .sbi,king''
establishments have closed their doors and several
more will shortly follow. The business of the In
stitute has become extensive thst the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and more elegant edi-
fee for their use during tue coming summer.

THE BEST is THE CHEAPEST This adage will ap-
ply well to the practice of medicine to the
purchase Of merchandise. Thou sands on this coast
during the past fifteen years, have hid their con-
stitutions rnined by refusing treatment at the
hands of frst-class physicians, simply because a
gang Of humbugs styling thems Ives doctors. and
wLo are almost destitute Of common sense, mu1h
Of medical knowledge, offer treat those who
sick for less sum than q regular practitioner
man that would allow quack 20 administer med
icine to him, is than idiot, T, in nine
out of ten, the medicine given, instead of cur
ing the disease, makes the patient worse and does
permanent injury to the system and oftentimes to
such extent to prevent the possibility of
ing the original disease. The fact is that person
should place himself in charge Of ply scian unless
he has strong pronfs that the doctor is q regular
graduate from some well reputed Medical College.
The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco il
perfectly enormous more than two of the ad-
vertised physicians have diploma. DR.. H. JOS

to exhibit his diplomas.
