Kansas City, Mo.-(Special. "A
new discovery which, experts agree,
has no equal for curative effects in
all rupture cases, is the latest accom-
plishment of DR.. Andrews, the we'll

The extraordinary success of this
new method proves that it holds and
heals rupture. It weighs only a
few ounces. Has no hard gouging
pads, no elastic belt, no leg straps,
no steel bands, and is as comfortable
as light garment. 1t has enabled
hundreds Of persons to throw away
trusses and declare their rupture
absolutely healed. Many of these
had serious double ruptures, from
which they had suffered for years.
1t is DR.. Andrews ambition to have
every ruptured person enjoy the
quick relief, comfort and healing
power Of his discovery, and he will
send it on free trial to any reader of
