It is absolutely the only Appliance of the kind on the market today, and in it are embodied the principles that inventers have sought after for years. % 2. The Appliance for refaining the rupture cannot be thrown out of Position. 8. 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 not cumberseme or ungainly. : R 5. It is small, soft gnd pliable, and posi- tively cannot be detected through the cloth- ng. 6. The soft, pliable bands holding the Ap-. - pliance do not give one the unpleasant sen- sation of wearing a harness. 7. There is mnothing about it to get foul and when it becomes soiled it ean be washed without injuring it in the least. : 8. There are no metal springs in the Ap- pll‘iané:e ‘:o torture one by cutting and bruising the* flesh. 9. All' of the material of which the Ap- pliances are made is of the very best that money can buy, making it a durable and safe Appliance to wear. 10.

E. Brooks, Marshall, Mich. Dear Sir:—Perhaps it will interest you to know that I have been ruptured six years and have always had trouble with it till to the I got your Appliance. It is very easy wear, fits neat and snug, and is not in way at any time, day or night. In fact, at times I did not know I had it on; it just a}!)hvted ;wtl!fl to the shape - o e \body and seemed to part of the body, as it elung to the spot, no matter what po- sition I was in. It would be a ver- itable God-send to the unfortunate who suf- fer from rupture- if all could procure the Brooks . Rupture Ap- ‘They would certainly never regret it . My rupture is now all healed up and noth- ing ever did it but your Appliance, Whenever the opportunity presents itself I will say a good word for your “Appliance, and also the honorable way_in which -you deal with tured people. It is a pleasure to recommend a good thing among-your friends or strangers. I am, . > “Yours very sincerely, . JAMES A. BRITTON. 80 Spring St., Bethlehem, Pa. S and 0 { e { 1N, N\
