~
We want 10 demonstrate to
you absolutely without a penny
in advance, our new invention
for holding difficult or aggra-
waited cases of rupture whether
of Inguinal or Umbilical char
acter. If you are ruptured
you should be interested in our
ability to fit you with a truss
that will do it's work properly
and give you the greatest ease
and comfort possible.
scientific AND PRAC-
TLCAL
This new Ceilings Truss is
based on the most scientific
principles for holding a rup-
ture. 1t is not only represent
tative of mechanical perfection
but contains that super-pOwer
for holding a rupture without
discomfort, and that makes for
a complete recovery where this
result is possible.
::
CONTAINS NO SPRINGS
There are no springs OF
metal parts used in this, new
truss other than the small
necessary buckles; instead it is
made of high-grade elastic web
with soft, pliable cloth, back
made wider so as to distribute
the pressure over a broader
surface. Prevents all cutting
and chatting, and gives the
necessary uplift to the pads.
1T HOLDS THE RUPTURE
:" 1t is easily, quickly and per-
manently adjusted so an even
and uniform pressure can be
constantly maintained at any
desired tension. The patented
sectional pads are adaptable
and will fit any kind of rup-
ture. AS the cure progresses
the pressure can be lessened
without a change of pads.
1T STAYS PUT
When placed in position, the
truss stays put and does not
skid or slide. Regardless of
the position of the wearer's
body; STOPPING, jumping or
standing erect, the truss re-
mains firm and set, and adj
justs itself as the occasion de-
mands.
COMFORTABLE DAY OR
NIGHT
To do it's maximum amount
Of good, a truss should be worn
continuously day and night.
Upon retiring many people re-
move their truss, with the re-
suit that the weakened mus
cular tissues relax and often
times allow the rupture to as
sumo the form of the original
pr0trusiOn. This new truss
can be worn at all times.
FREE DEMONSTRATIONS
FOR TWO DAYS ONLY
FRIDAY and SATURDAY,
AUG. II and Is
Every ruptured person should
visit our expert and learn what
genuine truss.comfort means.
No charge for demonstration
or information.
