Trusses for Rupturt: are
necessary. The only ques

can I get the Irrst trus> for

simply for the truss. We go
further, we guarantee a tit
ami 'guarantee satisfaction.
There are many different
kitnl of trusses, anil one j
great thing is to know what
kind is best to use. We
have had enough truss sell

out. Our stock of trusses is
not excelled in this vicinity,
but that is not the point for
you to consider. Your con
