A New Cure
For Rapture.
Without The Use of Trusses.

At the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitutc, In Buffalo, n. V. for the past ten
years have been performed the most Won
derful cures of rupture and false rupture
and with greater uniform success than at
any other hospital in the country. The
stan OF Physicians and Surgeons at the
lnValids' Hotel have made radical cures
In over 5000 cases, and this without III
effects in any case. A remarkable record
Is this, when you consider that with very
fey exceptions paticYts are able to be out
Of bed the day following treatment and
haSc since remained cured. The treat
ment is painless and safe. Neither ether
tnor chloroform is used. The average
case requires but ten DAYS stay in the
Institution. After leaving the Institute
a bandage is worn for Il month or so. until
all swelling has disappeared, after which
time the bandagc or truss may be per
manently removed.
There is no safety in depending upon
truss of any kind. Every man who has
suffered the agonies of a stranguatcd
hernia undoubtedly thought himself safe
until the very hour of death. Both the
rupture and the truss keep up mental
strain, and induce nervous debility and
various organic weaknesses of the kid
ncys, bladder and associate organs. There
is no longer any need of wearing these
clumsy, awkward, chatting old trusses

never cure: often iutlcting great injury
and inducing Inflammation and strangu-
