M% Important Medical Discovery.
Electricity as a Curative Agent!

WHEN it was promulgated by the Directors of
w the Eectropathic institute that disease
could not be entirely eradicated from the sys-
tenn without the use OF poisonous drugs. the
thOug ghtless. and those who do not look deeply
into cause and effect, secuted the assertion as
chimerical and wrote long articles replee with
sophstry, claiming that only through the diges-
tive system could the blood be purged OF the
poisons which constitute disease; 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 system circulating base stories OF its i'll sue
| cess and quoting imaginary cases as proofs
! Time has demonstrated their dishonesty. After
five years of uninterrupted success. the Electro
pathc 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 w no were diving deep into the sci
| ence of the curative art; among these were the
| Electropathsts: finally, il was discovered that
the failure in most of the cases of oeganic disea-
ses, was entirely due to the machine. Taking
this view of the case, DR.. j. H. Jossclyn. after
years OF experiment. has perfected an Electro
pathic 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
destruction of the vital tissues. We do not claim
that the of medicines may lot be advantage
Gus in some cases; but. that in connection with
medicines. it will perform 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 invalls that the Resident Physician is
| n L. guar graduate and has had large experience
| in the treat tment of disease, both with and with
out the assistance Of electricity: he has also dis
| covered eclectic vegetable remedies that will
| cure almost any namcable disease. which be 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 oOpliconf
| he afflicted. and will warrant a 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 al night, this
instrument is employed mparting health and
strength to all who are so fortunate 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-
| nowneG
| Electro-Iagnetic Baths,
than which there is no more powerful auxiliary
| in the world for the radical cure OF disease -
| There is no Institute in the State where elec
tropathic system is practiced, except at the

| There is also another view of the affair. The RI

constitution, and the Directors wish to arouse
their guardians to proper sense of their duties
in the premises, if possible to prevent them from

| II would be consuming space, to no purpose to
| emu umerate the diseases to which this system is
applicable; suffice it 10 say, that there is 70 dis
ease, within the catalogue of human ills but what
can be cured at the Electropathc Institute. We
have instructed the Resident Physician to war;
| rant perfect and permanent cure, or ask no pay
| for services, when in his judgment it is within
| the bounds OF cure.
CAUTION.
