RUPTURES.—BY ROYAL LErriatS PATENT.
WIIITE'S MOC-MAIN LEVER TRUSS
(PERFECTED AND EXHIBITED IN THE GREAT EXHIBI-
TIONS of 1851 and 1862), is allowed by upwards of Two Hundred
Medical Gentlemen to be the most effective invention in the cura.
tive treatment of HERNIA. The use of a steel spring, so often
hurtful in its effects, is here avoided—a soft bandage being worn
round the body, while the requisite resisting power is suppliedby
the Moe-Main Pad and Patent Lever, fitting with so much ease
and closeness that it cannot be detected, and may be worn during
sleep. A descriptive circular may be had, and the truss, which
oannot fail to fit, forwarded by post, on the circumference of the
body, two inches below the hips, being sent to the manufacturer,

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to establish

lay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly dependent for
support on voluntary contributions and legacies.
It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in adco-
lion to this, the average number of attendance of the destitute
sick has for a considerable period averaged between 3,000 and
4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevo-
lent, as the premises of this hospital are capable of containing
several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite funds
to maintain them. _
