Rupture Shield Expert Coming to Burlington ON Wednesday, May 8th AT PIEDMONT HOTEL from 10 ?. in. to 4 p- m. ' Er?iiln|s by telephone appointment only ONE DAY ONLY No Charge for Consultation Mr. C. F. Redlich, the successful ex pert, says: The "Perfect Retention Shields" hold the rupture perfectly, no matter what poeition the body assumes or how heavy a weight you lift. They give instant relief, contract the opening in a remarka bly short time and strengthen the weak tissues (the real cause of rupture) so that they frequently recover their previous natural retaining power, needing no fur ther outside support. Stomach trouble, backache and constipation often caused by Ruptnre promptly disappear. Truly remarkable and prompt results have been obtained not only with recent and not fully developed ruptures but also with old, long neglected ones. Ingenious, recently perfected devices are now holding ruptures firmly which heretofore never had been retained. No elastic belts nor filthy legstraps are used. I guarantee the durability of my abso lutely sweat and moisture proof, sanitary appliances. 75 percent of ruptured children recover completely though expert meehanical treatment according to statistics Do not waste your money on widely I advertised mail order contraptions.
