THAs. C. REINHARDT's patent glas
- pad double and single lever truss

~ pad double and single lever truss
(patened Sept. "a, lS44) for the support and cure
of rupture or hernia suitable to all 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.
liness, 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
double motion: first by revolving on It's own
axis; second, by the lever to which il 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 it is most efectual in
retaining the parts in their proper place, and ma
king due pressure; it is always clean; 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 unsur-
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-
BILE terms oft.
