A New Cure
For Rupture.
Without The Use Of Trusses.

AT the Tnvalids' Hotel and Surgical In
stitutc, In Buffalo. n. ". 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
Stati OF Physicians and Surgeons at the
| lnvallds' Hotel have made radical cures
In over 5000 cases, and this without Ill
effects in any case. A remarkable record
Is this. when You consider that with very
| few exceptions patients are able to be out
OF bed the day following treatment and
have since remained cured. The treat
mcnt Is painless and safe. Neither ether
nor chloroform is used. The average
case requires but ten days stay in the
Institution. After leaving the Institute
a bandage Is worn for u month or so, until
all swelling has disappeared, after which
time the bandage or truss may be per
manently removed.
Thera is no safety in depending upon
truss Of any kind. Every man who has
suffered the agonics of strangulatcd
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, chaIinR old trusses
that, at hest, give only partial relief, but
never cure; often inilicting great injury,
and inducing Inflammation and strnngu-
lation from which many die annually.
II any one should doubt the above
statement, they have only TO write the
Institute, and they will receive II pam
nhlct. giving the names OF number OF
people to whom they can write and verify
this statement. A chronic disease which
may battle the skill of the general practi-
tiorcr may yet be permanently cured by
the physician who has made one line of
disease u speciality. IL would be Just as
absurd for n professor In u medical col
lego prcsuming TO lecture on all subjects
as for the one physician to presume to
understand the nature and cure OF every
disrasc.
That is why Dr. R.V. Pierce established
the lnvalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute

Gated to practice In all departments of
medicine are here assigned to a special
department only-to which each special

attention.
There are over one hundred diseases OF
