From the Contra Costa Gazette, Jan Is, 1866
A GRAND SCCCEss.-During the past year, some
half dozen ''bogus Medical Institutes in San Fran
cisco have 'shanded in their checks,'' and closed
their doors. Without exception, the establish
ments alluded to were conducted by individuals
that knew little nothing of the pructice of medi-
cine, and were established for the purpose of ilch-
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-
termined to put stop to the imposition. They ac-
cordngly established the Electropathlc Instiute''
at CAS- Washington street, and placed it in charge of
DIR. J. H. Josselyn, gentleman in every way COM
pet mt for the position, with instruction to warrant
perfect in all cases undertaken by him, or
refund the money. They advertise largely and the
respectability of the Institute was SO well known
that the sick 1ocked to the office for advice and
treatment In Swarms. The effect has begun to be
made manifest. Some six of the medical ssbilking''
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 more elegant edi-
fee for their use during tue coming summer.

THE BEST is THE CHEAPEST This adage will ap-
ply we'll 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 almost destitute of common sense, much
of medical knowledge, offer to treat those who
sick for less sum than regular practitioner.
man that would allow quack 20 administer med
icne to him, is than idiot, for in nine cas-
es 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
ing the original disease. The fact is that person
should place himself in charge of ply ysician 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 Eectropathic In
stitute of these, and is prepared at all times
to exhibit his diplomas.
