RUPTURE.

COLES'S PATENT TRUSS is universally admitted
to be the most effectual instrument now in use for the re-
lief and cure of HERNIA.. The pads resist the descent of the
Hernia when stooping or coughing. The following. opinions
are selected from a list too numerou,' for insertion in a single
advertisement :
" We are unanimous in the opi ion that Mr. Coles has at-
tained such a degree of perfectio. in the adaptation of Trusses,
that they can be worn almost .m the birth, let the species of
reducible rupture be what the may—that they effect a greater
security to the patient, and ith considerable less inconveni
ence than any other Tru..."—New London Surgical Pocket-
book—Sherwood and C. pany.
"This is the only r • • improvement in the construction of a
truss that ever came .ndermylnspection."—George Birkbeck,
M.D. John Borthwick Gilchrist, Esq., friend of the doctor's,
gave Mr. Coles a handsome testimonial of his case, in which he
says—" I may add, that this truly scientific discovery justly
entitles the inventor of such an instrument to universal confi-
dence." •
" The pressure upon the ring is not merely equalised, but
adjusts itself, without inconvenience to the wearer, to the dif-
ferent attitudes in which the body may be placed."—Wm.
Thos. Brande, Esq., Journal of Science, Literature, and the
Arts, of Royal Institution.
" That man who has the ingenuity to construct an instru-
ment which is calculated to alleviate so large a portion of human
suffering will ever he considered by me to be a great public
character."—Edmd. Belfour, Secretary Royal College of
Surgeons.
" They make a more uniform pressure on the ring than the
ball-and-socket pad can effect."—Sir A. Cooper, Bart., F.R.S.—
in his Treatise on Hernia.
" The varied positions of the body in stooping and coughing
do not alter the position of the pads, nor displace them."—
Thomas Callaway, Esq., Guy's.
" It is my firm conviction that his trusses will be found more
efficacious than any at present employed."—Henry Earle,
Esq.. F.R.S.
"They are the best trusses that have ever yet been got up."
—Aston Key, Eso., Guy's.
" I consider these trusses calculated, beyond every other
truss I have seen. to cure this disease in its earliest and simplest
form."—Gideon 3lantell, Esq., F.R.S., Ip, Chester-square.
