LIGHT, COOL, Easy to Wear. i pressure on i or Back. i nnderstraps. Never moves. Is Used by Many Leading Institutions throughout the United Ptates and Canada, and have been adopted by Guy s and West minster Hospitals, Lonlon, England. In this Truss the principle hitherto so greatly desired has at last been achieved, that of firmly and constantly hold ing the rupture with a gentle hand-like pressure. It does not pass around the hip like other trusses, but over the hips, the silver wire lying in the hollow of side, thereby allowing the free movement of the hips and limbs, allowing the wearer to stride out freely, and doing away with the fear and dread that something will go wrong that usually attends the wearing of other trusses. Its lightness is featherweight in comparison with other trusses. It is so lifrht the wearer scarcely knows he has anything on, and this is a ere it comfort, enab ling the wearer to forget his ailments. It can be altered bv the wearer to the shaoe of the body, not being made of hardened steel. and can, with a little judicious and careful bending, be made stronger or weaker in pressure, as M. Z.
