Donzhue. I can not feel but that I owe you this testi- mony for I had never expected to be cured. However, thanks be to God I found a cure ghmuzh the valuable appliance you made or me.

It is absolur.ely the only Appliance of the kind on the market today, and in it are embodied the principles that inventors have sought after for years. + 2. The Appliance for retaining the rupture cannot be thrown out of position. 3. Being an air cushion of soft rubber it clings closely to the body, yet never blisters or causes irritation. 4. Unlike the ordinary so-called pads used in other trusses, it is mnot cumbersome or ungainly. 5. It is small, soft and pliable, and posi- tively cannot be’ detected through the cloth- ing. . 6. The soft, pliable bands holding the Ap- pliance do not give one the unpleasant sen- sation of wearing a harness. 7. There is nothing about it te get foul, and when it becomes soiled it can be washed without injuring it in the least. 8. 'There are mno metal springs in the Ap- f}l‘iar‘licehw torture one by cutting and bruising e ilesn. 9. All of the material of which the Ap- pliances are made is of the very best that money ean buy, making it a durable and safe Appliance to wear. 10.

In fact, at times I did not know I had it on; it just adapted itself to the shape of the body and seemed to be a part of the body, as it clung to the spot, no matter what po- sition I was in.

My rupture is now all healed up and noth- ing ever did it but your Appliance,.
