sufferers seek medical advice in T » cases of rupture they are told to wear a truss or to undergo an operation; and it is, as a rule, impressed upon the patient that the latter course is the only cure. The following testimonial of a man living in Cumberland street, Dunedin, is only one of many hundreds which might be published illustrating the fallacy of the foregoing assertion:— "Mr A. W, Martin. “ Dear Sir, —I am pleased to add my testimony to the number of New ,Zealand patients who have derived benefits from the Dr J. A. Sherman treatment as applied by you. When quite a young man I ruptured myself lifting heavy stones in a quarry in the North of Ireland. I went to a doctor there, and he ordered a truss to support the rupture. From that time until I came to see you on the 28th of February, 1907, I .wore trusses the whole time. I think I tried every kind of truss that was made; but they ‘ would not support the rupture when I had any lifting to do. When I adopted the Sherman method X could lift any weight, and the rupture was retained. I ■ wore the Sherman appliance, and used tho compound for 18 months, when I laid it aside, and I have not worn it since, being perfectly cured of my trouble. Of all the trusses I wore during the 40 years 1 suffered, I can safely say that none of them can be compared with the Sherman appliance. I only wish I bad known of that treatment years ago, as it would have saved me a lot of trouble and anxiety, and I can strongly recommend the Sherman treatment to anyone suffering from rupture.” Mr Martin informs us that no charge whatever is made for consultations, and he will send a free booklet dealing with the treatment of rupture to any sufferer. Mr Martin can be consulted daily at Samson’s Buildings, Dowling street, Dunedin. Hours: 10 to 12, 2 p.m. to 5.
