METALLIC 1 RUSS,
(LATEST IMPROVEMENT,) 7
For the immediate relief and radical cvre of all
or either of the following varieties of HERNIA,
{Rupture,) to wit: Scrotal, Femora!, Inguinal,
Ventral, or Umbilical.
Tiie Subscriber having purchased thg right
and privilege of applying and within the
county ot Wilkes, this instrument for
the radical cure immediate relief of all per
sons the unfortunate subjects of either of
’T.o above mentioned diseases, embraces an ear
ly opportunity of informing such, that they can
be re'ieied from this distressing malady by ma
king eany application. Trusses, ot sizes suitable
for every variety of case, will he kept constantly
on hand and applied at a reasonable Tice.
The inventor of this new and valuable Truss
in his remarks on the subject says:
“Having cored extensive ruptures of eighteen
years standing, and given immediate relief, in a
considerable number of carps, in old and in young
persons, wiio are now either entirely well, or re
lieved from all inconvenience from this distress
ing and dangerous malady ; persons thus allect
ed, who have not heretofore had an opportunity
of availing themselves of its substantial benefits,
that of immediate relief and ultimate radical cure, i
will doubtless how do so.
My Patent Metallic Truss combines the ad
vantages of all other Trusses, without their in
conveniences ; and is equally applicable to the
five different varieties of Rupture enumerated,
and can he worn night and day with comtort and
convenience; and it the patient be prudent and
regards ins health, effectually prevents the es
cape of the Viscera. The steel spring Truss, it
is well known, cannot be worn at night, and
t onsequefltly, a’ great deal of time is lost by that
circumstance. The celebrated Mr. Cooper says
in his surgical work upon the subject of the ap
plication and use of the Truss, that, “Whoever
wears a Truss, should be careful to employ it
day and night, without it mission, so that there
may be no opportunity for the Hernia to protrude
again; for experience has put it beyond all
doubt, that by the continual unremitted use of a
Truss, and the retention of the contents of the
Hernia, the neck of the sack and the ring may
be gradually lessened in diameter, until they are
orn irely closed, and a radical cure of the rup
ture effected.”—This is now ihe opinion of all
Surgeons of respectability, and with my Truss,
this important injunction of one and all oi the
most distinguished Medical men in the world,
can tie complied with.
In offering my Truss to the afflicted cf Rup
ture, I do it confidently, believing, from actual
experience in my own person, and that of ivany
others, that it is the most valuable instrument
ever presented for their use. My opinion upon
this subject is corroborated by that of all Physi
cians who have examined it, and had an oppor
tunity of knowing of the success I have had in
relieving and curing ruptures of different kinds.”
Various certificates from Physicians of the
highest character could be produced in relation
to the superiority of this Truss over all others yet
presented to the public; but I forbear, and trust
that all those who are thus afflicted, will test
the value of the instrument by availing them
selves of its immediate application. It is simple,
convenient, and valuable indeed.
