T ap e X So Light, Small and Comfortable is the New Rupture Cure, It Can Not Be Noted Even When theWeareris Clad in Tights, Several Dancers, Sufferers from Rupture Due to the Unusual Exertion, Have Been Cured by New Discovery. Rupture can be healed. Medical sclence, endless investiga- tlon, combined with modern invent. {veness has devised a method which actually heals rupture. For ages, the healing of rupture, or hernia as it is known medically, has been ths atm of countless physiclans and sur- geons, Investigations into the ills and body afflictions of ancients, dlsclose that in days, when history was noted on tablets of stone, rupture was known and even then priests of that time, were almlessly trying to effect @& cure. Trusses, as the implements which hold or retaln the rupture are called, were in use at that period in history, but like the modern truse they held the rupture but falled to wssist nature in healing the wound. The ancients’ attempts at healing were mere gropings, as they knew nothing of the circulation of blood and- it effect on body tiseue end body growth. The various phases of growth were mysteries which they were unable to fathom. Since Sir Willlam Harvey, an English scien- tist of the early century, discovered that blood really circulated through the body, sending lfegiving mate rials to all parts of the human eystem, the path of the rupturs wcientists has been more easy to tollow, They attempted to find, 1f possible, eome method of retalning the rup- ture safely, yet something which would allow free circulation of hlood and not irritate the edges of the hernia or rupture and which would heal the tear. Assists Nature to Heal This has been done. Experiments carried on for more than 30 years bas resulted in the perfection of an eppliance, light, safo, comfortable and clean, which ascists nature and ally heals the rupture.

Others include society women, working women and women In moderate cir eumstances. The cures have been general In all clas e ers w 7 Heals the Aged Tn thelr zeal to prove the worth of the new process, men and women of advanced years were selected and their experiences recorded. A probe showed that even in this class, a great number of permanent cures had resulted, where the patient fol- lowed closely the instructions of the experts To really understand what this great discovery and these years of experimenting and testing mean to humanity, it {s almost necessary that a full description of the new method he glven. Like all inventions and discoveries of science, its method of healing 1s based on logic and upon a keen knowledge of the subject. A rupture or hernia, as it is known in medical science, is literally a tear or & separation of the muscle fihers in the walls of the abdomen. This eeparation is caused by a heavy strain, a violent ferking or unusual exertion. The fibers separate and allow a portion of the intestine to protrude through the opening. This results in a small knot or knob on the wall of the ahdomen. Bofore the investization, which re- sulted in the discovery of this new method of healing, there were but two courses open. A physician or surgeon could be called and an operation performed or the patient or sufferer could seek some sort of comfort from a truss, which pushed itself into the rupture opening. keep fng the protruding intestine inside the body. The operation was expensive and dangerous, with the outcome a doubtful thing. All the surgeon with his knife, could promise to do, was to bring the edges of the torn ®ection to- gether and sew it. then await the action of nature and allow growth o renew the torn sections Truss Prevents Cure If the truss was called Into serv- bard leather knob was forced ) the tear. where constant irrita- wore thin the edges of the and the hard pressurg pre vented proper blood circulation.

No hope was held out by sclentists, that his rupture would ever cure fitself, although many manufacturers of appliances con tended that such a thing was pos- sible; eclentific investigation showed that 1t was impossible to heal the rupture as long as heavy pad was being pushed iulo the rupture NEW BRITAIN DAILY Sir William Hai English Scientist, Wholewsy'covery of the Circulatory System, Assis- ted so Greatly in Perfection of New Medical Discovery Which Heals Rupture. opening, separating the edges of the tear and wearing thin, the edges of the torn section. The heavy springs In the ueual truss pressed into the body, many times injuring the kidneys and caus- ing unrepairable damage to the hack, where the heavy steel pressed into the tender nerves, centered in the spinal column. Besis this, so cruel was the old-fashioned truss, it was impossible to sleep in the ap- paratus, with the resuit that in sleep many times, the rupture “came out” and even a doctor was unable to replace it. When this happened, an immediate operation was neccssary if the life of the patient was to be saved. Peritonitis would result in 24 hours If the rupture strangulated or could not be replaced. The old truss was not washable; it caused skin irritations and the dirt which acecu mulated caused a feverish condition which retarded the cure, The great number of rupture cases among small children and babie made necessary some method which would eliminate forever the pushing pad, the dangerous operation and heavy eteel encircling the body, in- juring the delicate nerve centers. Experiments Bring Cure The experiments resulted in the discovery and perfection of the Brooks appliance. C. E. Brooks, a resident of Marshall, Michigan, was ruptured. He was not a doctor but he was a well educated man.

He sald: “I am pleased to Inform you that 1 do not need anything in connection with the appliance, for I have not worn same for the last nine months and consider myself cured of Tupture. “The rupture has not troubled me for the last four years—thanks to you and your {nvention.

He stated I was completely cured. This ex- amination was made in December, 1921, and I haven't worn the appli- ance since and have had no trouble. “I suffered from a double rupture and had used spring trusses for six years without help.” A further proof that the cures are permanent ones, Is verified by John Clark, Roan Mountain, Tenn., R.

Tiis name was withheld out of regard for his grief. It gives a striking exampla of the dangers of rupture, especially where the old-fashioned spring truss is used. The application of the new Brooks appliance might have re- sulted In saving the man’s life. The lotter from his son follows: . “Dear Mr. Brooks: I am return- ing the rupture appliance for refund, as father died from strangulated hernla the day before it came. “We tried two years ago to get him to order one of your appliances and cannot help but feel that it he had done as we wanted him to—he would have been wpared.” Thousands Cured On file in the offices of the com- pany are thousands of lettera, telling of the cures effected by this new in- ventlon and meny of them full of thanks and gratitude for the cure which they had always thought ime possible or too dangerous to attempt.
