Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send for Brooks
Rupture Appliance.

l. II is absolutely the only Appliance
OF the kind on the market today. and in
81 are embodied the principles that In
ventors have sought after for years.
.. The Appliance for retaining the rup-
ture cannot be thrown out OF position.
3. Being An air cushion of soft rub
Der IL cllngs closely TO the body. yet never
blisters or causes irritation.
4. Unlike the ordinary so called pads.
used In other trusses II Is not cumber
some or ungalnly.
;. II is small soft and pliable and
positively cannot be detected through the
clothing.
6. The soft. pliablc bands, holding the
Appliance do not give one the unpleas-
ant sensation OF wearing harness
:. There is nothing about II TO get
foul, and when II becomes soiled II can
he washed without injuring IT in. the
least.
g. There are no metal springs in the
Appliance TO torture one by cutting and
bruising the flesh.
o All OF the material Of which the Ap-
piiances are made is OF the very best
that money can buy. making IL durable
and safe Appliance TO wear.
10. Ny reputation for honesty and fair
dealing is so thoroughly established by
an experience OF over thirty years. or
dealing with the public. and my. prices
are so reasonable. my terms so fair. that
there certainly should be no hesitancy in
sending free coupon today.
