Dear SIR
Perhaps it will interest you to know
that l have been ruptured six years and
have always had trouble with 1t till got
your Appliance. 1t is very easy to wear,
fits neat and snug, and is not in the way
at any time, day or night. In fact, at
times | did not know l had 1t on; it Just
adapted itself to the shape of the body
and seemed to be a part OF the body, as
u chung to the spot no matter what posi-
tion l was in.
It would be veritable God-send to the
unfortunates who suffer from rupture II

pliance and wear it. They would certainly
never regret it,
My rupture is now all healed up and
nothing ever did it but your Appliance
Whenever the opportunity presents itself
will say good word for your Appliance
and also the honorable way in which you
deal with ruptured people. 1t is a pleasure
TO recommend a good thing among your
friends or strangers. / am,

Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send For Brooks
Rupture Appliance.

1. 1t is absolutely the only Appliance
OF the kind on the market today, and In
IL are embodied the principles that invent
ors have sought after for years.
2 The Appliance for retaining the rup-
ture cannot be thrown out Of position.
g. Being an air cushion of soft rubber
1t clings closely to the body, yet never
bllsters or causes irritation.
4. Unlike the ordinary so-called pads,
used in other trusses, 1t is not cumbersome
or ungainly.
5. II is small, soft and pliable and
positively cannot be detected through the
clothing.
6. The SOFT pliable bands holding the
Appliance do not give one the unpleasant
sensation of wearing a harness.
Z. There is nothing about 1t to get foul,
and when 1t becomes soiled II can be
washed without injuring 1t In the least.
s. 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 APP
planes are made is of the very best that
money can buy, making 1t a durable and
safe Appliance to wear.
10. My reputation for honesty and fair
dealing is so thoroughly established by
an experience OF over thirty years of deal
ing with the public and my prices are so
reasonable, my terms so fair, that there
certainly should be no hesitancy in send

Former MontCIair Boy Tells
of independence Day in Panama

An interesting letter from Frank W.

count of how the Americans ems
ployed on the .isthmus spent the
Fourth of July at Cristobal.. Usually,
all the men work seven days in the
week, but the recent holiday was de-
clared day of rest. ~
Drills by the soldiers, tennis tourn-
aments, boat regattas, concerts, dane.
ing, aquatic sports and athletic events
We're only some of the many attrac-
tons that made the holiday happy
one. The athletic events were espe-
oially worthy of note. Hoff estab-
lished new Isthmian record of "a 20
seconds for the 220-yard dash, fin
ished second in the century dash and
third in the running broad jump, thus
winning the point trophy. Peter C.
Hllsebosch, of New York, hung up a
new record of 2:03 10 seconds for tho
8S0-yard run. From the other class
shown at the meet, 1t was unanimous
ly voted to organize team to repre-
sent the Canal Zone at the San Fran

ployed on the construction work are
