Why Drag Through Life
WearingWorthlessTrnsses?
90 Per Gent, of the Suffering and
Trouble Ruptured People Go
Through Is Caused By Spring
IB V and Leg-Strap Trusses
Aren't you sick and tired of wearing
trusses vou can't make hold, which
you can't feel safe in. or which hurt
so they scarcely give you a minute's
peace?
Don't you know that such contrap
tions will sooner or later let your rup-
Vure get the best of you?
Don't you know they are almost sure
to cripple you up, so you won't be able
to keep at work, won't be able to make
a livitiff?
Aren't you aJraid they'll gradually let
you get so bad that sooner or later
you'll have to face a dangerous oper
ation?
Aren't you willine to make a sixty
day-test—without having to risk a cent
—and see for yourself what a relief it
Is to get rid of such misery-causing
makeshifts?
Xo More Beltm l.eg-*trapi or Spring*
We ha •• found a way to hold any
man's rupture without harmful pres
sure. without any belts or spring
around your waist, without having to
wear leg-straps.
It is our gunrnoteed rupture holder.
It is as big an improvement over
elastic and spring trusses and so-called
"appliances' as the modern locomotive
Is over the lirst steam engine ever
euilt.
HO Days Trlnl to Prove It
We have so much faith in it —have
seen what it has done for so many
others —that we are willing to make
one especially for jour case and send
It to you for sixty days' trial. Willing
to give you plenty of time to see for
yourself Just how good it is.
If it doesn't keep your rupture from
coming out or from bothering you in
any way. then you can send it back
and it won't cost you a single penny.
It is the only thing we know of for
rupture that you can get on long
e' ough trial to make sure; because the
o ly thins good enough to stand a long
and thorough test.

thing you want to know. It Is full of
facts never before put In print.
It shows just why operation Is nearly
always a gamble with death and why
those who manage to live through It
ofler. have to keep on wearing: a truss.
It exposes the fakes and humbugs—
puts you on guard against being fooled
and against throwing money away.
And it tells all about our guaranteed
rupture holder—the famous Cluthe.
Shows how simple It is. Why It needs no
belt or leg-straps. How it Instantly and
automatically protects you against every
strain, so your rupture can't ba forced
out. How it provides the only way
ever discovered for overcoming the
weakness which is the real cause of
rupture. How It has brought complete
cure In thousands of cases that seem
ed almost hopeless. How it Is water
proof and will hold in the bath. How
you can get it on 60 days trial and
how little it costs If you keep It.
Explains the care and attention we
give you and why. because of our long
experience and thorough knowledge of
rupture, we are successful In eaaes
that would utterly baffle your local
truss titters.
Write for the book to-day. That wilt
take only a minute. But It may free
you from trouble and worry for the
rest of your life.
