DOCTOR EDMUND LANDIS'S
PATENT DOUBLE SPRING TRUSS.
For tie Melioration and Care of Hernia.
HUMANITY is deeply indebted to the ingenuity
and persevsrance of Dr Edmund Landis, a citi
zen of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, fur a valuable improve
ment in the construction of the Truss for the meliora
tion of Hernia or Rapture, which, after being careful
ly tested by application to a number of patients, has
newer failed to give relief, and in most cares has proved
euticessfal in erecting a permanent cure.
This improved Truss has been submitted to the must
eminent members of the medical profession, who, af
ter fair trip! and examination, have concurred in pro
nouncing it an important discovery, particularly as it
allaiui of perfect adjustment to the seat of the com
plaint, and of bearing with certainty upon the point
where the pressure is required, without admitting of a
chance of change or of shitting by any action of the
muscles, hip or body,—the outer spring, which is very
&aside, only giving, by which arrangement every move
ment is accommodated.
The suffering and imminent danger to life COMlC
quent upon that most distressing of all complaints,
Strangulated Heroic', need never be apprehended by
persons who sear this improved Truss, and the patient
may eberish a confident hope, that in consequence of
the imtine or nmenturn never being permitted to
protrude in the slightest degree, that the distended
ring or opening will gradually contract, and a perma
nent cure be effected, when the Truss may be dispens
ed with altogether.
This Truss may be very properly termed, Dr LAN
DIS' COMPOUND SPRI.NG TRUSS: the springs
being 2 in number, the inner and the outer, the latter
lying over the former. The exterior spring is three I
times the length of the interior, upon the end of the
latter the compress or eliptical pad or block is fasten
ed, which rests upon the affected part. There is a
small adjusting screw, which passes through the outer
spring, immediately over the pad or block, and is
formed to bear upon any part of the block, so that the
pressure can be made to act immediately upon or over
the rupture with the degree of lot ce or weight which
the case may require. The whole apparatus is so ad
justed as to fit any peculiarity of form, at the same
tillA so flexible as to ocra.ion neither inconvenience
nor uneasiness to the wearer,whi le following his usual
avocations.
The following distinguished members of the Med
ical profession haveborne ample and unqualified testi
mony to the palliative and curative value and impor
tance of Dr Landis' discovery: George B Kerfoot, M
D.. and John L Arles, M D., of Lancaster; Geo M'.
Claßand, M D , Professor of Surgery in the Pennsyl-
Wan sod Jefferson College, and Samuel M'Clelland,
M D., Professor of Anatomy in the same college; Sam
uel Martin. M D., Professor of Anatomy in the Penn
sylvania College, &c.; James M'Clintock, M D., Pro
fessor of Surgery in Vermont College, &c.; John Wai
kiki*, M D.. and W B Grant, M D., Professor in the
Pennsylvania College; Henry G Patterson, M D.,
Professore( Materia Medica in the Pennsylvania Med
ical College; to which we add with pleasure the res
pectable names of S Snyder, M D.. J K Neff, M D.,
C L Baker, M D., and Henry Carpenter, M D., of
Lancaster.
H H McCULLOUGH having purchased the patent
right for making and vending the above TRUSS, is
prepared to furnish them to all who may be afflicted
with that disease, lie is also prepared to 611 all or
derefrorn Physicians and Druggists, and solicits their
patronage. He will attend to applying the instru
ment; believing it to be superior to anything of the
kind ever invented. He has put the pike so low that
it is within the reach of all. The testimonials of the
eminent Physicians, whose names are above append
