Ten Reasons Why You Should Send for the Brooks Rupture Appliance 1. It Is absolutely the only Appliance of the kind on the market today, and in i are embodied the principles that inventors have sought after for years. 2. The Appliance for retaining the rupture cannot be thrown out f position. posi-tion. - 3. Being a n air cushion of soft rubber rub-ber it clings closely to the body, yet never blisters or causes irritation. 1. Unlike the ordinary so-called pads, used in other trusses, it is not cumbersome cum-bersome or ungainly. 5. It is small, soft and pliable, and positively cannot be detected through the clothing. 6. The soft, pliable bands holding the appliance do not give one the unpleasant unpleas-ant sensation of wearing a harness. 7. There is nothing about it to get foul, and when it becomes soiled it can be washed without injuring it in the least. S. There are no metal springs in the Appliance to torture one by cutting and bruising the flesh. 9. All of the material of which the Appliances are made is of the very best that money can buy, making it a durable and safe Appliance to wear. 10. My reputation for honesty and fair dealing is so thoroughly established by an experience of over thirty years of dealing with the public, and my prices are so reasonable, my terms so fair, that there certainly should be no hesitancy in sending the free coupon today. Cannot Say Too Much Doddsville, Miss. C. K. Brooks, Marshall, Mich.
