As this Institution has the honour to be patronized by gentlemen of
the highest eminence in the profession, the utmost pains are employed
to render it an Establishment worthy of public support.
Rigid investigation of the character and qualifications of every ap-
plicant for recommendation, and of the suitableness of every place,
which may from time to time be represented in its Books, for the re-
covery of health, constitute its distinguishing features, and afford se-
curity to the public on these points, which is not attainable by private
means. except with much delay and inconvenience.

tion of Medical Alen, families requiring any of the above description
of attendants. are requested to make application through their own

each Nurse provided by the Institution.

at the Institution, or in answer to the favor of a Letter, (post paid)
addressed to Mr. or 3lrs. Adam., by whom co•staet attendance is

TO THE AFFLICTED WITH RUPTURE.
W RIGHT, Self-Adjusting Truss, and Sur-
gical Instrument Maker, 32, London-Road, Southwark,
Begs leave to announce to the Publie and Medical Gentlemen, that
he manufactures Trusses upon an Improw.d Principle, for these af-
flicted with Hernia.
It is difficult to explain the nature with which some Ruptures are
kept from descending, and very frequently to almost bid defiance to
every kind of Truss to retain the Rupture.
H. W. flatters himself, from the number of years' experience, to
have a competent knowledge in securing the most o►stinate Cases of
Ruptures with which persons have been afflicted a number of years.
H. W. manufactures a variety of Trusses to the construction of the
body, and has never bad any Case of Hernia without being able to
reduce it to its relative situation, however laborious and trying the oc-
cupation of the person so afflicted.
N.B. Manufactures the Improved Domestic Instrument, by which
Costiveness may be instantly removed, and its dangerous consequences
prevented, by the application of Warm Water only : it is quite simple
its construction, and also portable.
Surgical Instruments of every description warranted of the best
manufacture.

Merchants and Captains supplied for Exportation.
