OUR METHOD OF TREATMENT

The protruding part must be brought into
its proper place, then supported by suitable
bandage or truss, kept in Its place until the
aperture In the membrane or wall through
which ], escaped, is thoroughly and well knit
together. This IL our theory Of the true cure
Of rupture, and that II is correct, IL substanta-
ted by hundreds Of persons whom we have
cured. We are well aware Of the prejudice
manifested by the Medical Faculty against an V
form Of treatment for the permanent cure Of
rupture, which excludes the use Of the knife,
unfortunately too many sufferers from rupture
have imbibed the same feelings, and believe
operation, or obtain relief only by wearing 4
truss. To all such we would say that we are
willing and ready TO enter into a

TREATMENT OF RUPTURE.

The only methods Of treatment adopted by
the Medical Faculty in effecting a cure Of rup-
ture i' the ase Of The truss or the knife. The best
medical works extant state that BY the use of
well constructed truss it sometimes happens
that the rupture Of infants become radically
cured, but the same result, however, seldom
occurs at more advanced period of life. In
regard to the use OF the knife, the danger is so
great, that the patient has but slight CD ance of
recovering after leaving the surgeons hands.
Sir Ashley Cooper, who was knighted for his
rare medical attachments, states that out of "a
cases operated on by him for rupture Sc
proved fatal. From record kept by DIR. Tur-
ner, another eminent English physician, 1t APP
pears that out Of 545 cases reported, 26O proved
fatal. Here we have the confession of the
ablcst Medical talent that rupture In infants
may be cured By wearing n truss one or t,co
sears but at more advanced age the same re-
suit seldom occurs, and by the use Of the knife
the chances for life or death are about equal.
Truly may the sufferer from rupture ex-
claim sis there no Balm in Gilead, no hone
Tor permanent cure but the surgeons knife,
and must go though this world wearing a
cumbersome truss2" To which we answer
there Is Balm in Gilead for hernial sufferers;
there Is no longer any necessity for wearing
truss a life time, nor submitting to a surgical
operation in order to be cured.

THE SYMPTOMS OF RUPTURE.

The symptoms OF rupture though varying
considerably according to the position Of the
sac, presents in all cases many points in com.
mon. The tumor is elongated or rounded.
broader at the top than at the body, usually
increasing in sizeif the patient stands up, holds
his breath, coughs, or makes much muscular
exertion. II can be pushed back into the alb
domen on pressure, OF goes back readily IL the
patient lies down, but reappears when he stands
up. On coughing, a strong distinct impulse
may be felt 10 il. When the Rupture Is alto
geiher intestinal, it is usually smooth, gurg-
ling when pressed upon, and sometimes Civ
ing out drumlike sound. Itmay be returned
into the abdomen with distinct slip and CUR
gle; il has well marked impulse on coughing,
aud is usually accompanied by various dyspep-
tic symptoms, and often with a good deal Of
dragging uneasiness.

Hernia or Rupture.
lis Symptoms Cause & Cure.
DESCRIPTION OF RUPTURE.

ERNIA, or as Il is usually termed. Rupture,
IL means, in It's widest sense, the displace-
lnent Of any organ Of the body from its natural
cavity, and protruding through an abnormal
or accidental opening in the membrane oi
walls Of such organ. The most common situa
ton Of Rupture Is in the abdomen. II may
occur at almost any part Of the abdominal
wall, but the protrusion generally oceurS in
that portion where the muscular structures
are weakened. In whatever situation II oc-
ours Ruptnre is composed Of sac or bag aud
It's contents. Usually, the sac forms a perfect
incIosure for the hernial contents, but oeca-
sionaliy forms but partial investment OF them.
The body Of this varies greatly In size and
shape, generally globnlar, sometimes elonga-
ted and cylindrical. II may vary from the
size OF cherry, TO tumor as large as the
head.
The contents Of the sac vary greatly, all the
interior portions Of the abdomen, except the
panereas and stomach having been found In
hernial tumors. Most frequently part Of the
small intestine, more particularly OF the long
est portion Is protruded, cons tituting that form
Of rupture entitled entsroesls. After portion
OF the intestine has once descended, the pro-
uuded part tends to increase In quantity, until,
as In some large and old ruptures, the greater
portion has been known to liz in the sac.
