No Exaggeration.

>o Exaggeration haunts the pages of biography, proclaims tho blind idolatry of love, aud makes the air heavy with its nauseating incense in the temples of heroworship. The biographer, the lover, the worshipper of heroes—they are all adepts in the art of heightening tho colour of truth, aud iu this they are rather selfdeceived than deceiving. No man can ever be guifty of an excessive estimate of the Dr J. A. Sherman Method of Caring Rupture without operation. This treatment so towers above all others in scientific majesty as to make i exaggeration impossible. The treatment that can lift thousands from tho depths of despair and make their lives bright and happy, that can bring ease aud comfort where pain held complete sway, that can make men and women feel as" if life was worth living, and raako it impossible for the rhetoric of praise to pass the limits of truth in setting forth its value to the human race is unquestionably a boon to mankind. This claim for the merits of the J. A. Sherman Method of Treating Rupture as successfully practised by Mr A. W. Martin is " no exaggeration. 1 ' Hundreds of patients have passed through Mr Martin's hands, and have given testimonials relative to "his successful treatment. These patients had, as a rule tried every other means of getting relief but in vain. They had tried trusses of every make, and added t) tltem extra paddings to try and make them effective, till each in turn becamo too couibersome to wear without absolute pain not to say discomfort. Scores of Mr Martin's patients had also undergone sui'gial operations at the hands of emincut men and in some j:ases two, three; four, and live operations, and tinally resorted to Mr Martin's consulting room with anguished minds and despair written plainly on their countenances. Such as I these have been cured, and on the. strength of such examples Mr Martin ■ asks you, gentle reader—presuming you to be a sufferer : " Have you a right to consider your ease—i*ad as ii may be—hopeless f" Mr Martin may bo consulted at his rooms, Samson's Buildiugs, Dowling street, daily 10 to 12 noon, 2 to 5 p.m., Saturdays 10 to 12 noon, A Booklet on Rupture and its Treatment posted free to any sufferer.
