From the Red Bluff Independent of Jan. 9th, '65
ELECTRoPATHY.-The readers of this article are
particularly requested to read the advertisement
of the ssElectropathic Institute" 645 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
years, has game for this establishment reputa-
tion that has never been equalled by any medical
establishment on this coast. In of female ir-
regularites especially, DR.. Josselyn has gained an
enviable reputation and the spacious parors of the
Institute continually occupied by ladies seeking
relief from their troubles.
DIR. Josselyn pays particular attention to the
treatment of in the interior of the State and
upon receipt of full description of the disease of
which the applicant is so unfortunate to be af-
icted, accompanied with the real fictitious ad-
dress, sends per Wells, Fargo & Co., medicines
that he warrants to the disease, without the
slightest injury to the system He mercu-
ry or mineral poisons. The remedies used are
known as ssEectric,' and most of them are of his
own discovery. Persons placing the emselves under
the treatment of DIR. J. H. Josselyn may rely upon
not only receiving correct and successful treatment
but upon his discretion and secrecy.
From the Grass Valley Union, Dec. 90, 49,
SUCCESS THE TRUE STANDARD OF MERIT.-If there
is any truth in the above 'told 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
DIR. j. II. Josselyn, who has during that time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand cases of disease to
successful issue, with the exception of very
small number, who were too far gone, having been
overdosed with poisonous drugs by some of the nu-
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Physician, Dr. J.
H. Josselyn, has received and replied to not less
than six thousand five hundred letters, besides
giving his personal attention to all the patients un-
der treatment at the Institute An amount of
work that it would be hard to find another man on
this coast with physical power sufficient for the
dertaking, and yet the Resident Physician is man
of a delicate tuti
but his scientific attainme nts such to enable
him to determine the nature of the disease with
which the applicant may be afflicted, almost in
stanty, and to prescribe such treatment as will
produce speedy and permanent cure The mode
OF treatment at this institute is peculiar poison
Gus drugs whatever are given under any circum-
stances, and the sick are per-
mar emily cured without the of one particle of
medicine of any kind. Persons requiring physic-
iau On whom they rely, will do well to read tn
advertisement of the Eleetropathic Institute else
where in columns.
From the Mountain Democrat
READ 1T.-We heartily recommend those of our
readers who may be suffering from disease of long
standing, from complaints brought on by the use
mercury at some former period of thei lives read
the advertisement of the Electropathic Institute
be found in our advertising coluEins. DR.. J. H.
Josseyn, the resident Physician, has occupied that
position for SIX years. and taking into consideration
the fact that all the Directors Of the Institute are
medical men of high standing in the community it
that he has been retained in the position SO long.
Dr. Josselyn Is regular graduate, and IS also con-
sldered by comp tent judges to te the most scien-
lhc and successful electrician in the United States
he will cure more than half the diseas that flesh
IS heir to without the of any medicine whatev-
er. but gives medicine in all cases where it is deem
ed necessary but never anything but vegetable
preparations. The doctor has been very successful
in his treatment of diseases incident to females and
enjoys much larger practice in that particular
me than any other physician on the Pacific coast
The Electropathic Institute is located of the
most popular streets in San Francisco, the rooms
for the reception of patients fitted up in style
of magnifcence never before attempted by any med
lcal establishment on this coast and the Institute
Is rated IN San Francisco the best in the CITY.
From the Contra Costa Gazette, Jan. l3, 1861
GRAND succEss.-During the past year, some
half dozen s'bogus Medical Institutes'' in San Fran
cisco have 'handed in their checks, - and closed
their doors. Without an exception, the establish
ments alluded to were conducted by individuals
that knew little or nothing of the pructice of med-
cine, and were established for the purpose of tilch-
ing money from the sick and unfortunate For a.
number of years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ing their victims without let hindrance, but in
lSoo certain well known medical practitioners de-
termlned to put stop to the imposition. They ac-
cordngly established the Electropath1c Institute'
at 6l5 Washington street. and placed in charge of
DIR. }. IL. Josseyn, a gentleman in every way COM
pet. mt Tor the POSITION with instruction to warrant
a perfect cure in all cases undertaken bv him. or
| refund the money. They advertise largely and the
respectablllty of the Institute SO well know
that the sick hocked to the office for advice and
treatment III swarms. The effect has begun to be
made manifest. Some six of the medical .sblking''
establishments have closed their DOORS and several
more will shortly follow. The business of the In
stltute has become extensive that the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and more elegant edi-
hce for their use during TIE coming summer.
From the 1reka Union, Feb. 10, 1866.
THE BEST is THE CHEAPEST This adage will ap-
ply as well to the practice of medicine as to the
purchase of merchandise. Thousands on this coast
during the past fifteen years, have had their con-
stitutions rnined by refusing treatment at the
hands of frst-class physicians, simply because a
gang of humbugs styling themselves doctors. and
who are almost destitute of common sense, much
moIe of medical knowledge, offer to treat those who
are sick for less sum than regular practitioner
man that would allow quack 20 administer med
cine to him, is than idiot, for, in nine cas-
out of ten, the medicine given instead of cur
ing the disease, makes the patient and does
permanent injury to the system, and oftentimes to
such an extent as to prevent the possibility of cur
ing the original disease The fact is that no person
should place himself in charge of physician unless
h has strong pronfs that the doctor is a regular
graduate from some well reputed Medical College
The number of medical humbugs in San Francisco is
perfectly enormous not more than two of the ad-
yertised physicians have diploma. DR.. H. JOS
seyn, Resident Physician of the Electropathic In
stitute is of these, and is prepared at all times
