SUCCESS THE TRUE STANDARD OF MERIr.-If there
is any truth in the above sod adagc,' then it will
apply to the Electropathc Institute of San Francis
This establishment opened to the public
about 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
overdoscd with poisonous drugs by some of the nu-
merous quacks with which this State abounds. Du-
ring the above time the Resident Ply stefan, 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

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

the fact that all the Directors of the Institute are

A GRAND SUCCESs.-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 pructce of medi-
cine and were 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 hindrance, tut in
1860 certain well known medical practitioners de-
termned to put stop to the imposition. They &C
cordingy established the Electropath1c Institute
at 6i5 Washington street, and placed it in charge of
DIR. 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
responsibility of the Institute was SO 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 ssbllklng''
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-
fee for their use during tue coming summer.

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
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
A 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 cur
ing the disease, makes the patient worse and does
permanent injury to the system, and oftentimes to
such extent to prevent the possibility of eur
ing the original disease. The fact is that person
should place himself in charge of ply stefan unless
h has strong pronfs that the doctor is regular

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
