Reinhardt's Patent Glass Pad Lever Truss, THESE TRUSSES have a superiority over any heretolbre use on account of their durability' and cleanliness. The Rupture Pad, which is con structed of Glass, has a double motion: Ist, by revolving on its own axis, and 2d, by the Lever, by which it is attached to the main spring. In this way it is so adjusted as to suit the motion of the body, and is always clean and durable, which in the ordinary stuffed pads is not the case. The manifest superiority these Trusses have over others, is, that they are more effectual in retaining the parts in their proper place and making an equal pressure. They can be adjusted to suit either side. The Umbilical Truss is unsurpassed, being so adapted as to remain perfectly secure when applied.
