No. 81 Charities Street, New Orleans.
N announcingto the public at large, d new feature
Il which we have inaugHrated Id our Old and well-estab-
lished business, it may be necessary to make a few re-
marks on the
Cause and Cure OF Hernia, or Rupture.
The usual cause of Hernia is simply the result Of pres
sure on the lower part OF the abdomen. This may be ef-
fected by coughing, constipation, andlifting oyer-weigls
It occurs also without the person knowing when and how
the accident took place. 0ncmay be frequently ruptured
wirhoat being aware OF it, imagining lit to be some slight
~glaudular swelling. Others, fancyinEthey arcrupturcd,
seek the udylce OF the ignorant, or imp0stor, and the lat
ter, f0r the sake OF a few dollars, confirms their worst
fears; when, in reality, tits nothing butt ali undue enlarge
ment of the chord, OF testes, which affection requires
quite a different treatment. iii fact, q Truss for such
cases is highly injurious. 1t becomes apparent therefore
how much care is requisite to ascertain the exact state
ofthe matter, and whom to apply to for advice and relief
Varied have been the means tried to attempt the rad
ical cure of this pest to humanity, Castrationt} WASH
vogue in early times. Within the last few years, the
Aertzer operation, and its numerous notifications, met
with commentator from many of the juni6T members Of
the medical fraternity. Cures were trumpeted right and
left IN the medical journals. And the final result il as
what? Why after lying on your back. with a needle
struck is your groin for ten DAYS, and unable for six
weeks to attend to your business, you rise under tile inn
preston that you We're radically cured. Vain hope-
The surface Of inflammation is SO small, the adhesion "a
slight, that in a year, ifnots sooner, you will find yourself
re-ruptured; having undergone risk and suffering with
out being benefited. We speak advisedly on the sub
ieCt. It therefore arises, that the only sure, safe and
pleasant cure is by wearing a Truss. But even that has
its objection: It may not fit! 1t may be too weak! 1t
may be too strong!!. In either case proving detrimen-
tai, and NAV bc-tatai. In view of the foregoing, we
have secured the services Of a gentleman whose long ex-
perienceI IN this speciality, combined with heWell-knoWn
Drobity of our house, has determined us to open an In
stitution, under his supervision, for the manufacture OF
Trusses, Supporters, and Bandages, feeling sure that all
who apply to Us for relief, win not meet with the accus-
