pE Important Medical Discovery.
Electricity as n Curative Agent!

WHEN it was promulgated by the Directors of
w the Ecctropathic institute that disease
could not be entirely eradicated from the sys
tenn without the use Of poisonous drugs, the
thoughtless, and thoscwho do not look deeply
into cause and effect, secuted the assertion as
chimercal 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
chorus, and in their Ignorance laughed at the
new system, circulating base stories Of it's i'll sue
cess, and quoting imaginary cases rs proofs
Time has demonstrated their dishonesty. After
five years Of uninterrupted success, the Electro
pathic system Is the leading idea in medical juris-
prudence. While by the old system, physicians
content to cure one in every live cases. there
were those who were diving deep into the sci-
ence of the curative art; among these were the
ElectropathiSts; finally, il was discovered that
the failure in most of the cases of oegnnlc disea
ses, was, s,entirely due to ine machine. Taking
this view Of the case, DR.. J. H. Jossclyn, after
years of experiment, has perfected an Electro
which flesh is heir to, always to he understood
that the case is not SO far advanced as to show
destruction OF the vital tissues. We do not claim
that the use Of medicines may not 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 invalds that the Resident Physician is
a regular 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, 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 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 oil 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)
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-

than which there is no more powerful auxiliary
in the world for the radical cure OF disease
There is Institute in the State where the cleo.
tropathic system is practiced, except at the
ElectrOpathic Institute.

This Institute was established 10, if possible, tG
prevent The unwary from falling mao those dens
OF robbery (yclept quack doctors traps), and
hereafter the scientific orignators of this Insi-
tute will not be to blame if the afflicted are rob-
bed of their money, and injured in constitution
There is also another view of the affair. The ri
sing gen, ration should be reared with strong
constitution, and the Directors wish to arouse
their guardians to proper sense OF their duties
in the premises, if possible to prevent them from
stuAing their charges with deieterous drugs,
with chance of entaling upon the tender con.
stitution just forming, a complication of evils a
thousand times worse than DEATH
1t would be consuming space, TO 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 Electropathic 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 cure.
Persons seeking the Eiectropathic Institute,
should be careful to remember the name and
