$10,000,000 A Year
Wasted on Trusses
H«w 60 Days' Trial Protects Yon Against Throwing Money Away
Away With i
Worthless '
Makeshifts ujfflvxc'
Xinety-nlne out of every hundred dol
lars spent for elastic and spring: trusses
might about as well be thrown away.
Close to ten million dollars a year—•
in this country alone—is practically
wasted on such contraptions.
And all simply because nine sufferers
out of ten trust to a mere try-on or
hasty examination instead of first mak
ing: 1 thorough teat.
A Mere Try-on la «i Snare
You can't possibly tell anything:
about a truss or anything else for rup
ture merely by trying it on.
A truss or so-called "appliance" mav
seem alright at first and afterward
prove utterly worthless.
The onlj' way in the world yoti can
make sure of exactly what you're get
ting Is by making a thorough sixty
day teat without having to risk any
money.
The Only Thing Good Knough
To Stand a 60-Hay Teat
There is only one thing of any kind
for rupture that you can get on sixty
davs' trial—
Only one thing good enough to atand
such a long and thorough tost
That is our guaranteed rupture hold
er.
We'll make one especially for your
case—make it to your measure and
let you try it sixty days—
We'll practically lend it to you that
long—without asking vou to risk a
penny.
If it doesn't keep your rupture from
coming out or bothering you in any
way, no matter how hard you work or
strain—lf It doesn't prove every claim
we make then you can send It back
and It won't cost you a single cent.

The Things We Tell in Onr Book
There are so many mistaken Ideas
about rupture that we have taken the
time to sum up In a boo# al! we have
learned during forty years of ex
perience.
Tills remarkable book—cloth-bound,
9S pages, ;o chapters, and 23 photogra
phic Illustrations—is full of facts never
before put In print.
It deals with rupture in all its forms
and stages.
It shows the dangers of operation,
rt exposes the humbug "appliances,"
"methods," ptasters." etc.
It shows why wearing elastic or
spring trusses is almost sure to shorten
your life.
And It tells about the famous Cluthe
Automatic Massaging Truss how
simple it is—how It ends constant ex
pense—how you can try it sixty days
without having to risk a penny, and
how little It costs If you keep It.
Also gives over 8.000 voluntary en
dorsements from benefited and cured
people.
Send for this book to-day—don't put
It off —the minute It takes to write for
it may free you from trouble for the
rest of your life. Simply use the cou
pon or just say in R letter "Send me
your book."
