Of DIR. j. II. Jnsseiyn, who has during that time
treated upward Of twenty thousand cases Of disease

small number, who were too far gone, having been
overdosed with ~ 80 GUS drugs By Some Of the

GRAxD SuccEss-During the past year, some
half dozen bogus Medical Institutes in San
Francisco have handed in their checks" and
closed their doors. Without an exception. the es=
Establishments alluded 20 were conducted by individ-
URLS that knew little or nothing of the practice of
medicine, and were established for the purpose of
flehing money from the sick and unfortunate. For
a number Of years these fellows succeeded in swindz
ling their victims without let or hindrance but ia
1850 certain wsll-known medical practitioners de-
terhined 10 put a stop to the imposition. They ac-
lcordingly established the ''Electropathie institute"
at645 Washington street, and placed it in charge
Of DIR. j. II. Josseiyn, a gentleman in every way
competent for the position, with instructions TO
warrant a perfect cure in all cases undertaken By
him. or refund the money. They advertise largely,
aud the responsibility of the Institute Was so well
known that the sick locked TO the office for advice
and Treatment, in swarms. The effect has begun
to be made manifest. Some six of the medical
"bilking" establishments have closed their doors,
and several pore viii SHORTLY follow. The business
iof the Institute has become so extensive that the
Directors contemplate erecting a larger and more
elegant ediiee for their Use during thecoming sum-

THE BEsr Is RAE CHEAPrsr.-This adage viii
apply asswell to the practlee of medicines as to the
purchase of merchandise. Thousands onthis coast,
during tina past fifteen years, have had their cons
situations ruined by refusing treatment at the hands
of first class physicians, simply because a gang IF
~humhugs. styling themselves doctors. and who are
almost destitute of common sense, much more of
medical knowledge, offer to treat these who are sick
fer IA less sum than a regular practitioner. A man
who would alloy a quaeg TO administer medicine
to him is worsethana an idiot for, in nine cases
out of ten. the medicine so given, instead of Touring

such an extent as to prevent the possibility of cur
ing the original disease. The fact is, that no per-
son should place himself in charge of a physician
unless he has strong proofs that the doctor is a
, regular graduate from some well reputed Medical
College. The number of medical humbugs in San
Francisco is perfectly normous not more than
two of the advertised physicians have a diploma.
DR.. j. II. Josselyn,. Resident Physician of the
Electropathic Institute, 645 Washington street, is
one of these, and is prepared at all times to exhibit
his diploma to those calling uponhim.
