Newer And
Better Method
For Reducible
Rupture,
Say Experts

A recent invention
which, experts agree,
has no equal for quick
and safe relief Of
groin rupture is the
latest accomplishment
of DR.. Andrew Kaiser,
w e Ill known Hernia
Specialist of Kansas
City, Mo. The extraor-
binary merit of this
invention is that it has
no hard gouging pads,
no elastic belt, no leg
straps, no cruel pinch
ing steel bands, no
hard rubber bands. 1t
is as comfortable as a
Jig h t garment and
quickly gives highest
satisfaction. H u n :
dreds of persons have
declared it has en-
abled them to throw
away their old trusses
and e n JOY freedom
from their previous
truss torture. Many
of these had serious
double ruptures, from
which they had suf-
fered for years. It is
DR.. Kaiser's ambition
to have every rup-
tured ers on enjoy
the quick relief, COM
fort and benefit of his
discovery, and he will
send it on trial to any
one who writes him.
He wants one person
in each neighborhood
to whom he can refer.
If you wish quick re-
lief and freedom from
truss torment or tor
ture, and from pos
sibly worsening condi-
ton, take advantage
of the doctors gener-
Gus offer. Write him
today. The coupon be-
low is handy.

clared her husband had tried to
poison her three times and had

marriage. would say he wanted his
stepmother to return. "She was

Sabotage Breaks Out
In Chicago Milk

CHICAGO, April Milk
sabotage marked the first day
Of Chicago's war against milk
not tuberculin tested. VI
At Virgil, III, seventy farmers,
whose herds have not been
tested, confiscated milk sent by
sixteen farmers with tested
herds. They poured kerosene
into the cans and then sent the
farmers home.
Deputy sheriffs were called to
the scene and the belligerent
farmers were dispersed.
A similar disturbance was
reported at Maple Park,
H., where the farmers, whose
milk is banned, forced the free
producers to take their product
back home. They did not de-
stroy the milk, however.
