(paten,ed Sept. "a, Is44) for the support and
of rupture, or hernia, suitable to all sizes and ages
for men, women, and children.
This truss has the superiority of any heretofore
in first, 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 tho body, and calculated to be
fted to either side. The rupture pad (glass) has
double motion: first, by revolving on its own
axis second, by the lever to which it is attached
and where said lever is connected to the ma n
spring. The superiority which his truss has over
others is obvious in this, that it is most effectua ia
retaining the parts in their proper place, and ma,
king due pressure; it is always clean; its shape
form is durable, which in stuffed pads is not the
case, Gas they become saturated with the fluids
