BH Important Medical Discovery.
Electricity as IL Curative Agent!

WHEN II was promulgated by the Directors of
w the Eectropathic institute that disease
could not be entirely eradcated from the sys-
tenn without the use of poisonous drugs, the
thoughtless, and thosewhO 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 diges-
tive system could the blood be purged of the
poisons which constitute disease; a great cry
went up from those 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 sy stem, circulating base stories of it's i'll sue
cess, and quoting imaginary cases as proofs
Time has demonstrated their dishonesty. After
five years OF uninterrupted success the Electro
pahic system is the leading idea in medical iuris-
prudence. While by the old system physicians
were content to cure one in every five cases there
were those who were diving deep into the sci
ence of the curative art; among these were the
Electropathists; finally, it was discovered that
the failure in most of the cases of oeganic disea-
ses, wasIentirely due to the machine. Taking
this view OF the case, DR.. J. II. Josselyn after
years OF experiment, has perfected an Electro
pathlc Instrument which will cure any disease
which flesh is heir to, always to be understood
that the case is not so far advanced as to show a
destruction OF the vital tissues. We do not claim
that the use oil medicines may not be advantage
GUS in some cases; but, that in connection with
medicines. it will perform a cure much sooner
than without and also that diseases hitherto
deemed incurable, can be cured by this system-
But the Directors desire to take this opportunity
to inform invalids that the Resident Physician is
re gular graduate and has had large experience
in the treatment of disease, both with and with
out the assistance OF electricity; he has also dis
covered eclectic" vegetable remedies that will
cure almost any nameable disease ,,whche he will
send with full instructions for use, to any part of
the Pacific coast upon receiving full descrip-
tion OF the disease with which the applicant NAV
be afflicted, and will warrant complete and per-
feet cure in all cases where the medicines are
used according to directions, and more especial
ly in all cases OF Female troubles where great
care and caution are necessary to favorable re-
suit. 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 Diseases 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 are the re-

in the world for the radical cure OF discase
There is no Institute in the State where the cleo.

EIectropathic Institute.

There Is also another view of the affair. The ri.

their guardians to proper sense of their duties
in the premises, if possible to prevent them from
stuffing their charges with deieterious drugs.
