HOME AND FARM MAGAZINE SECTION A Genuine Rupture Cure Sent On Trial To Prove It Don't Wear a Truss Any Longer After Thirty Years' Experience I Have Produced An Appliance for Men, Women and Children That Actually Cures Rupture. ARE YOU RUPTURED? If so, the BROOKS APPLIANCE is made for You; Yon and ail other ilea, Women and Children who are sufferers from this annoying and dangerous trouble. That -truss yon have been wearing one of many you have tried chafed and irritated you and was worse than nothing. It had springs and pods and harness and trap and filings galore ad was continually getting out of shape slipping down or working up and al ways needing attention. Then, there were salves and washes and ointments to make the case worse and harder to bear. I want to say that you will find none of these annoyances and vexations in the BKOOKS APPLIANCE. At least they are reduced to a minimum. Thu APPLIANCE was made with a view to , eliminate, to do away with, just such trouble. I would have been foolish to work half a lifetime, thinking out and pcrtocting a tame that had no advan tage or was not better than scores of other inventions upon the market. In ray APPLIANCE yoa will find the old objectionable features LEFT OUT. You will find it eoy to wear. You will scarcely realise you are wearing it There is no binding, drawing and slip ping out of place. It does its work ef fectively and with comfort to the wear er. I want yon to read my book, in vhich I have takea pains to give full particulars about it. Than, there are a few letters printed in it selected at random from among hundreds written by men and women who bave been cured. You can write these folks and Bee what they say. If I were you wtr.id see to this matter without wait ing You can put off some things with out running much risk, but a rupture is a dangerous proposition to ncgloct A rupture is not only bad and serious of itself, but it leads to things infinitely worse.

No ruptured child can ever be free from the thought of the rupture and it is not fair to any child not to have an equal chance with other children. No matter what we may wish to think ruptured children do not have an equal chance. Common trusses do not help. Thousands of men and women know that from their own experience with such trusses. But it is not necessary for children to wear harsh, cumbersome, steel trusses any more. You may have had to wear something like this, but don 't make your child dp it. Qive the child something better. My Applianco is better and I want to prove it to you. I will make an Appliance to the child's measure, send it on TRIAL pot it into your bands to see and use, and then you can say whether it is what I claim or not. The Automatic Air Cushion conforms with every movement of the child; there is an even, gentle pressure which gradu ally binds the broken parts together as you would bind a broken limb and then no matter how much the child jumps, runs, rolls over 'or falls down the pressure is kept up just the same always drawing the parts together. Write me today and get all the in formation send the coupon. Others Failed But The Appliance Cured C. K. Brooks, Marshall, Mich. Dear Sir: Your Appliance did all you claim for the little boy and more, for it cured him sound and well. We let htm wear it for about a year in all, al though it cured him S months after he had begun to wear it We had tried several other remedies and got no relief, and I shall certainly recommend it to friends, for we surely owe it to you. Yours respectfully, WM. PATTERSON. No. 717 a Main St., Akron, a ' is true. Ton are the judge and onee PENNSYLVANIA MAN THANKFUL Mr. a E. Brooks, Marshall, Mich. Dear Sir: Perhaps it will interest you to know that I have been ruptured six years and have always had trouble with it tin I got your Appliance. It is vory easy to wear, fits neat and Bnng, and is not in the way at any time, day or night. In fact, at times I did not know I had it on; it just adapted itself to the shape of the body and seemed to be a part of the body, as it clung to the spot, no matter what position I was in. . It would be a veritable God-send to the unfortunates who suffer from rup ture if all eould procure the Brooks Rupture Appliance and wear it They would certainly never regret it. My rupture is now all healed op and nothing ever did it but your Appliance. Whenever the opportunity presents itself I will say a good wtird for your Appliance, and also the honorable way in which you deal with ruptured peo ple. It is a pleasure to recommend a good thing among your friends or strangers. I am, Yours very sincerely JAMES A. BBITTON. 80 Spring St., Bethlehem, Pa.

TEN REASONS WHY Ton Should Send for Brooks' Bnptnre Appliance. 1. It is ahsolutatr the only ApaU- anee of the kind on the market today, and la it ere embodied the Paffa that inventors have sought after for years. 2. The Appliance for retaining the rupture cannot.be thrown out of posi tion. 3. Being an air cushion of soft rub ber' it clings closely to the body, yet never blisters or causes irritation. . Unlike the ordinary so-eauea peas. used in other trusses, it is not cumber some or ungainly. 5. It is small, sort ana puaoie, positively cannot be detected through the clothing. 6. The soft, pliable bands holding the Appliance do not give one the unpleas ant sensation of wearing a harness. 7. There is nothing about it to get fouL and when it becomes soiled tt can be washed withost injuring it is the least . 8. There are no metal springs in the Appliance to torture one by cutting sad bruising the flesh, 9. All of the material of whieh the Appliances are made is of the very best that money eaa buy, making It a durable and safo Appliance to wear. 10. My reputation for honesty and fair dealing is so thoroughly estab lished by an experience of over thirty years of dealing with the public, sad my prices are so reasonable, nry terms so fair, that there certainly should be no hesitancy in sending tree coupon today.
