ESs Important Medical Discovery.
Electricity as a Curative Agent!


WHEN il was promulgated by the Directors of
w the E!ectropathic institute that disease
could not be entirely eradcated from the sys-
tenn without the use of poisonous drugs the
houghtess, and thosewho do not look deeply
into cause and effect, secuted the assertion as
chimerical, and wrote long articles replete with
sophlstry, claiming that only through the dges-
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 10
cure another. All of the empyrics joned in the
chorus and in their ignorance lau ghed at the
new system circulating base stories of its i'll sue
cess, and quoting imaginary cases rs 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 who were diving deep into the sci
ence OF the curative art; among these were the
flectropathists; finally, it was discovered that
the tallure in most of the cases of oeganic 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
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 a
destruction OF the vital tissues We do not claim
that the use OF medicines may OF he 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 ncurable, can be cured by this svstem-
But the Directors desire to take this opportunity
to inform invalids that the Resident Physician is
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

cure almost any nameabc disease, which, he will

care and caution are necessary to favorable re-
suit From early morn until late at night, this
instrument is employed, mparting 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 Il few days or weeks. The COST TOO. is not 80
great as by the old system. besides the saving of
time. Connected with this system are the re.
