CHAs. G. REINHARDT's patent glas
Y ! mad double and single lever truss


(patented Sept. "a, ls44 for the support and cure
OF rupture, or hernia, suitable all sizes and ages,
for men, women, and children.
This truss has the superiority Of any heretofore
IN use first, on account Of its durability and clean
illness, the rupture pad icing Of glass, lin any
shape or form,) the adjustments Of the springs TO
suit the action Of the body and calculated TO be
fitted to either side. The rupture pad (glass) has
a double motion; first, by revolving on It's own
axis; second, by the lever to which It is attached,
and where said lever is connected TO the main
spring. The superiority which this truss has over
others is obvious in this that 1t is most eieeiual in
retaining the parts in their proper place, and ma
king due pressure Il is always eleani Its shape or
form is durable, which in stuffed pads Is not the
case, las they become saturated with the fluids
from The body.) The umbilical truss is unGur-
passed, being so adapted as to remain perfectly
secure where applied.
As proof OF its efficacy Of the great number that
has been vended, not one Of the owners has been
dissatisfied, but have spoken in the most commenda.
