Rupture Expert
HERE SOON
Del E. McCOllum, nationally
Known Rupture Expert. inventor
Of the New Cushioned Rupture
Shield" for MEN, WOMEN and
CHILDREN, is coming to Ell
Centro in person to demonstrate
his new appliance.
For the past 20 years I have
devoted my entire time to the
care Of ruptured people; and
now l have the best appliance
II have ever mats~-"The Cush-
.oned Rupture Shield"
Notice: II you are an old GUS
1 toner of mine, and still wear
\ truss, call on me and l will ex-
I change with ycu free of charge.
The cushioned Rupture
4 Shield" is constructed on a sci
I entific mechanical principle,
embodying features not found in
truSses or other rupture appli-
ances. 1t automatically adjusts
itself to to every position Of the
body can be worn with absolute
comfort 1t will not slip, slide
OF change its position.
i The Cushioned Rupture
Shield" automatically gives
gentle and continuous massage
to the surface of the ruptured
tissues. thereby improving local
circulation, assisting Nature in
assimilating, strengthening and
contracting flabby muscles; and
in the average case the opening
closes in remarkably short
l time.
One doctor says: Il have used
| this appliance and endorse it as
one OF the greatest blessings ever
offered to ruptured people. Don't
be deceived by Advertised mail
order contraptions with their
chafing, unsanitary belts and
| leg straps as we'll as Free Treat
meuts of salves and medicines
they are worse than worthless.
Would you be interested if you
could get an appliance that
would comfortably hold your
rupture; one that is sanitary
can be worn while bathing: and
if you could be assured that you
would not have TO buy any more
trusses? If so, come see me-my
New Cushioned Rupture Shield"
is such an appliance. \
l invite you to come in, have
this appliance made up to your
measurements, fitted to your
body; then, if you do not like it,
you will be under no obligation
TO accept it. THE Cushioned
Rupture SHIELD" will relieve you
Of that binding, gouging, unsani-
tary old truss.
