ss> Important Medical Discovery.
Electricity as a Curative Agent!

WHEN ii was promulgated by the Directors of
w the Ejcctropathic institute that disease |
could not be entirely eradcated from the sys |
tenn without the use OF poisonous drugs, the |
thoughtless. and those who do not look deeply |
into cause and effect, secuted the assertion an
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; II 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
cess, and quoting imaginary cases as proofs
Time has demonstrated their dishonesty. After
five years OF uninterrupted success the Electro
pathic system is the leading idea in medical iurs-
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 Oeganc disea.
ses, was. s.entirely due TO the machine. Taking
this view OF the case, DR.. j. H. Jossclyn. after
years of experiment, has perfected an Electro
paihc 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 of medicines may t be advantage
Gus in some cases. but, that in connection with
tIItulCluce IL Will perform II cure muCn sooner
than without, and also that diseases hitherto
deemed incurable, can be cured by this sysem.-
But the Directors desire to take this opportunity
to inform invalids that the Resident Physician is
4 r. 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 nomcable disease. which be will
send with full instructions for use, to any part of
the Pacific coast upon receiving a full descrip-
ton OF the disease with which the applicant may
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 a 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, loo, is not SO
great as by the old system. besides the saving of
time. Connected with this. system are the re-
nowneG

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 the cleo
tropathic system is practiced, except at the
Electropat,,ic Institute.

There is also another view of the affair The ri.

constitution, and the Directors wish to arouse
their guardians 10 proper sense of their duties
in the premises. if possible to prevent them from

1t would be consuming space, 10 no purpose to
enumeratc the diseases to which this system is
applicable; suffice it 10 say that there is no dis
ease, within the catalogue ofhuman ills but what
can be cured at The Electropathc Institute. We
have instructed the Resident Physician to war

for services, when in his judgment it is within
the bounds OF cure.
