SUCCESS THE TRUE STANDARD OF MERIT.-If there
is any truth in the above 'old adage,' then it will
apply to the Electropathic Institute of San Francis
co. This establishment was opened to the public
abont six years since, under the management of
DR.. j. II. JOsselyn, who has during that time treat
ed upwards of twenty thousand cases of disease to
a successful issue, with the exception of a 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..
IL. 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 on
this coast with physical power sufficient for the
dertaking, and yet the Resident Physician is man
to all ap of very delicate constitution,
but his scientific attanme ITS such to enable
him to determine the nature of the disease with
which the applicant may be afflicted, almost in
stantly, 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 in numerous instances the sick per-
marently cured without the use of one particle of
medicine of any kind. Persons requiring physic-
iau on whom they rely will do well to read tn c
advertisement of the Electropatic Institute, else

GRAND SUCCRss.-During the past year, some
half dozen '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 nothing of the pructcc of medi-
cine, and established for the purpose of fch-
ing money from the sick and unfortunate. For a
number of years these fellows succeeded in swind-
ling their victims without let or hindrance but in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de-
| termned to put stop to the imposition. They &C
cordingy established the ElectropathIc Institute
at 6l5 Washington street, and placed it in charge of
| Dr. J. II. Josselyn, gentleman in every way COM
pet. mt for the position with instruction to warrant
| perfect cure in all cases undertaken by him, or
refund the money. They advertise largely, and the
respectabiity of the Institute well known
that the sick focked to the office for advice and
treatment in swarms. The effect has begun to be
made manifest. Some six of the medical stbilking''
establishments have closed their DOORS and several
more will shortly follow. The business of the In
stitute has become extensive that the Directors
contemplate erecting larger and elegant edi-
| flee for their use during tue coming summer.

THE BEST is THE CHEAPEsT-This adage will ap-
ply well to the practice of medicine to the
purchase of merchandise. Thousands 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
more of medical knowledge, offer to treat those who
are sick for less sum than regular practitioner.
man that would allow quack 20 administer med
icine to him, is than idiot, for, in nine
out of ten, the medicine given, instead of
ing the disease, makes the patient worse and does
permanent injury to the system, and oftentimes to
such extent to prevent the possibility of
ing the original disease. The fact is that person
should place himself in charge of physician unless
b e has strong pronfs that the doctor is 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-
vertised physicians have diploma. DR.. J H. JOS
selyn, Resident Physician of the Electropathic In
stitute is of these and is prepared at all times
to exhibit his diplomas.
