The Wonderful Cures that are Effected bp DR.
Geislndrd0.-Dr a. Gesmardo of the Paris Uni
versity now a resident of this city at ST. Stock
ton street. is perhaps one CT the most remark
able electricians and magnetic healers of the
day. At the age of y he discovered his wonder
full electrical powers, and began the study of
medicine. At u he entered the French army
as surgeon and was placed in charge of 81 hos
pital, but soon afterward abandoned the profess
SION of medicine and entered upon his new
career OF usefulness as an electric and magnetic
healer. After making a tour of Europe he went
10 Mexico, ana received from the highest Off
Gals of that country many testimonials of his
cures. Entering the Government service as a
surgeon, he used his powers both on the soldiers
and the public, and in gratitude thereof was
awarded the Captainshipin the National Guard
and also the gold cross of the Legion of Honor
Hearing OF the remarkable cures that the Doc
tor had effected during his short stay in this
city, CAL reporter visited his Office at 81
Stockton street. corner of Suffer, to satisfy him
self as to the genuineness of the mysterious
nature of his powers. DIR. GeismaIdo is a
Frenchman by birth He speaks English like
an Englishman, and is also master Of German
Italian and Spanish, and is as polished man
OF the world as student of the art of healing.
He is young and still in his thirties. Taking
advantage of his offer, the reporter accompa-
MED him in his professional visits The first
patient seen was q. Sneider, who bad been for
six months so great a sufferer that he was in
capacitated from work. After six visits Mr.
Sneider was enabled to attend to his duties.
One of the most remarkable cures was that
erected upon Mr. Cnat1enr VINO for eight years
had been a victim of chronic rheumatism so
that he was unable to walk. He first visited
last Wednesday and when seen Friday after
noon, his last treatment, he was not only walk
ing, but was strong enough TO perform the
hardest labor. ID. Il. kimball, who for the past
two years. has had rheumatism and inilamma-
ton of the nerves so badly that he was a
paralytic till last Monday and could hardly
hobble along with clutches and stick, was first
visited last Monday, and after the second treat
ment could walk without any extrsneous aid.
All these three patients have employed the
leading physicians of san Francisco. and have
expended thousands of dollars on them, with
out avail. As Mr.. kimball said to the reporter
81 have indeed found god in this mana
man who has given me new lite-and the
blessing he has bestowed upon me l would not
part with for many thousand dollars"
The last patients seen were Mrs. Sylvia and
Mrs. Shawhan, the one troubled with her voice
and the other with her foot. which had pre-
vented her from walking for the last six months.
Two visits cured the infirmities.
DR.. Geismardo uses neither drug, Lotion nor
plaster. His cures are effected solely through
his own electric exertions and bottled cleo
tTicity- II is his own invention, which he
labored over Ear fifteen years. js50iplm
