LET IT RIP.
It is a woeful mistake to “let it rip/’ It may be a small affair at the start, but as a rule, all things grow. At the first Indication of rupture go to the specialist. Dont rely on a truss, for inevitably it will be ineffective. Trusses “grow”—i.e., they increase in bulk as extra pressure is needed, and, exerting a downward and inward pressure, the truss actually prohibits healing. The specialist, Mr A. W. 'Martin, applies a remedy which has an actually opposite'action to a truss. His appliance closes the aperture—does not spread it —and the result is cure. Attend to your rupture at once. Don’t “ let it rip ” now, because ultimately complications are sure to arise, and present delay to get scientific treatment will be regretted. Mr A. W. Martin may be consulted at his rooms, Samson's Buildings, Dowling street. 10 to 12 noon, 2 to 5 p.m.; Saturdays _lO to 12- noon. A booklet on rupture and its treatment posted free to sufferers.
