ELECTRopATHY.-The readers ofthis article are
particularly requested to read the advertisement
of the sElectropathic Institute" 6l5 Washington
street, San Francisco, to be found in another col
umn of this paper. The remarkable cures that
have been effected by DR.. J. H. Josselyn, the Resi-
dent Physician of the Institute during the past six
years. has game d for this establishment reputa-
ton that has never been cqualled by any medical
establishment on this coast. In cases of female ir-
Irregularities especially, DR.. Josselyn has gained an
envabe reputation and the spacious parlors of the
Institute continually occupied by ladies seeking
relief from their troubles.
DR.. Josselyn pays particular attention to the
treatment of cases in the interior of the State and
upon receipt of full description of the disease of
which the applicant is unfortunate to be af-
icted, accompanied with the real or fictitious ad-
dress, sends per Wells. Fargo * Co., medicines
that he warrants to cure the disease, without the
slightest injury to the system He uses no mercu-
ry mineral poisons. The remedies used are
known ''Electric,'' and most of them are of his
own discovery. Persons placing themselves under
the treatment of DR.. J. H. Josselyn may rely upon
only receiving correct and successful treatment
but upon his discretion and secrecy.

SUCCESS THE True STANDARD OF MERIT.-If there
is any truth in the above 'old adage, then it will
apply to the Eectropathic Institute of San Francis
co. This establishment was opened to the public
about six years since, under the management of
Dr. J. H. Josselyn, who has during that time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand cases of disease to
small number, who were too far gone, having been
overdos ed with poisonous drugs by of the
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Physician, Dr. J.
II. Josselyn, has received and replied to not less
than six thousand five hundred letters, besides
giving his personal attention to all the patients
der treatment at the Institute. An amount of
work that it would be hard to find another man on
this with physical power sufficient for the
dertaking, and yet the Resident Physician is man

Josseyn the resident Physician, has occupied that

the fact that all the Directors of the Institute

may be nsdered proof of DR.. Josselyn's ability

A GRAND SUCCEss.-During the past year, som.
half dozen s.bogus Medical Institutes in San Fran

their doors. Without exception, the establish

number of years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let hndrance, but il

cordingly established the s:Electropath1c Institute
6i5 Washington street, and placed it in charge

refund the money. They advertise largely, and the
responsibility of the Institute was SO well known
that the sick focked to the office for advice anc

contemplate erecting larger and more elegant edi
