TO THEv RUPTURID SERIOUS CONSIDERATION_NO MAN 18 SAFE wLo has rapture, no matter how insignificant he may consider it; for every man who has died-from it once flattered himself that it .was but a trifling ailment; and every man who.now suffers from it and the injury ot trusses to such an extent that his life has no enjoyments, once regarded it as unworthy of special attention. Remember, it is not a stand-still affliction; it is steadily progressive, even unto death, and ho is wise who takes the necessary steps to be effectually relieved of it before the day of suffering and gloom comes upon him. It should not bo regarded in any stage with indiffereuce, as serious consequences may result'from it at any time. Ho should take warning from the examp e of others, and not meet with death through strangulated rupture, as Gibbon, the great English historian,, did, notwithstanding his great foresight and talents. An opportunity is ifow granted to the suffering of procuring the Host Reliable Treatment known in. the World for the Radical Cure! of Rupture Case? of 10,20,39, and 40 years' standing have been restored to the bleesings of a sound body.

TotheEditoh, ~ . 24 Lower High-street, Christcbutch, April 18th, 1904. - Dow Sir,—Allow me, through the medium of your columns, to give my own experience regarding the'melhods now belore the puolic for the relief and cure, for rupture For tho past twenty-five years I have suffered from a bad sorotal rupture on my left side, I tried every kindjof truss that gave the faintest hope of relief, but gradually got worse. Twelvemonths ago I adopted a treatment with an olnstio truss, to be worn day and night and a lotion to be rubbed in. I acted according to directions, but instead of n curing mo 1 got worse under the treatment, the agony being sometimes indescribable. While in th : s deplorable condition the advertisement of Dr J, A' Sherman's Method caught my eye in the papers, and three weeks ago I consulted Mr Martin at tho Clavedon Hotel. Inm happy to-say that there and then I found the relief,! had been longing for, The appliance is tho most comfortable one I ever wore; in fact I don't .feel it on me.' Already I feel quiio a different man, and hayo enjoyed better health th'e'so- few v waelis tknil bavo done for yoarc Hence you will see why I appreciate Mr Martin's teWes, and I feel it my duty to make this pablic declaration, that others affected may know where to obtain relief, and avoid tho delay and Buffering from experiments such ns I for long years experienced, Apart from Mr' Martin's undoubted skill as a specialist in rupture,,it is n' pleasure to add that he is one of the lnosi straightforward gontlomen I have over met. * I am,-yours truly, ."' , . WiniAifßates, Furniture Manufacturer. Mr A. W. Martin. Heriot, December 28fch, 1903. Dear B:r\-My four children treated by you are all cured. One boy 11 years old had been ruptured for ten years, the girl, 8 years old, had been ruptured for two years, another boy, 6 years old, ruptured sirco a baby, and the youngest, one and a-half years old, also ruptured since a baby, I 'say Dr J. A. Sharman's method is a great boon to humanity, as lam convinced that it is a certain'cure for rupture. / Yours gratefully, • ' Mrs. Wm. McDonald, Mr A, W, Martin, Mornington, Dunodin, April 7th, 1904. . Dear Sir,—lt gives mo very great pleasure to let you know that lam keeping Al, I was ruptu/ol about three and a-half years ago, and foolishly neglected it for about 18 months. The rupture had then broken right through and completely filled .he! icrotum, I wont to my doctor, and ho ordero'ii'me to wear a truss, so I went to the chemist and had one adjusted; but I might .as,well have left it alono; in fact, I suffered more pain with it than Tdid without it, 1 was then told, by the' chemist that I would have to get one made specially to Bait me, ,and I was sent to Mr Johnstone, the specialist, The special truss ho made'supported the rupture, but it was heavy and cumbersome, and so close fitting that 1 perspired very considerably, and was" kept uncomfortable. After wearing the above for about nine months'! read your ■ advertisement re the Dr Sherman method, and after my first interview with you I was forced to the conclusion that the Dr Sherman method was by far the most commonsense method that had come under my. notice I then placed myself under your treatment, and I am exceedingly thankful to he able to say that my first conclusions have been fully substantiated by the results, and I am now a sound man. After having tried three different appliances I can honest y state that for safety, surety and comfort, Dr Sherman's method is just the thing for anyone troubl ed with this common yet painful maady. Yi ut are at perfect liberty to make what use of this you like. Bolieve me to be yours sincerely, ■ ' . W. G. Hannah, '< '• _ Dunedin, April 1904 A well-known accountant in Dunedin who suffered agony from trasses, writes : "It gives me a groat amount of gratification to inform you that !for the past four months my rupture has given me no feroub e. lam not wearing the appliances at all now, and jusf feel as I did before I was ruptured. I must say lam more than satisfied with your method of treatment, and,am very grateful for the result." r Waimat6,May3,l9o4 Ma A, W, Martin. v . J ; ' .- t N ' Dear Sir,—ln reply to your kind enquiry I hardly know how' to thank you for curing me of avery painful rnpture by Dr A. Sherman's method. I left off. wearing the app iances three months ago, and I have never felt be(teij>in my life, not even before this affliction camo upon mo. At odd times I put on, the. appliances as a safeguard when I take athletic exercise, and it is so comfortable' to wear. 1 am sure I cou d not have been long fortius world if ,1 had -not' got your treatment at i the pain and torture of other trusses, of which I had many, wore something cruel, J and would kill any mania time, Your treatment is one to be proud of and thankful for, and it will afford mo great pleasure to meet sufferers and tell them how pleased I was with it. You are at perfect liberty to use this as, you like.—l am, yours sincerely, W. P. Georok Anderson's Bay, Dunedin, M ay 3,1904, Mn. A, W. Martin, • ' Dear Sir,—l have much pleasure in informing you that, after applying tho , Shorman treatment for nine months the rupture has entirely disappeared. ■ I take the appliance iff occasionally, bntintoud to wear it for throo months longer as a safeguard. Bfeei assured that at tho end of that period I will be quite safe to dispense with the treatment entirely, I have no hesitation in saying that the Sherman appliance is tho host I have scon. The elastic truss is not to be compared to it, It is comfortable to wear, simple and efficient. I have recommended it to all who have asked ray opinion, and will always do so in the future—l am.yours truly, William Gall. May 18,1904 Another grateful patient from .Dunedin writes:—" Some years ago I got a (tick while playing football, with tho result that I received a rupture on my right side. I was advised by a medical man to undergoan operation, which I did. I was operated on in the Dunedin Hospital by Dr. —-, who' advised me to wear one of Thomson, Maw and Son's trusses for six months after the' operation, I followed out his in* structions, and after the six months had expired he told me I need wear the truss no longer, as I was cured. Ko sooner did I remove th-e truss than I'found myseif in a worso,_ condition than before, Not only did the rupture again appear, but the operation had so mutilated me'that the rupture was twice as large. From that time I wore trusses and trusses; some-aided me as lougf as I kept in a upright position, while others wore nothing short'of a sweaty contrivance. Three months ago I consulted you on Dr J, A, Sherman's method, and I do mt hesitate to say that I have derived more enjoyment out of life these past'three months than I have derived for tho past seven years. I cannot say as to the curative powers of this treatment, as my case has not'given it a trial yet. but this I do know, that the appliance .worn is the betljr'uni ever invented for sufferers of hernia. For mysolf, lam not particularly anxious about a euro so long as I have the appliance. I ran in'a one hundred yards foot race on the Caledonian Ground the otlm day, Which is in itself sufficient prooj of \h support offered by, this appliance," ' ? ■ A Manager of a largo establishment in Princess-street, Dunedin, writes:—" I have suffered untold agony for the past 35 jears from a doublo'scrotal rupture.- I have tried all kinds of trusses from London and other places, but they were useless, none of them being abto to perfeotly retain the ruptures. Some of them gave me extra torture by chafing my skin nearly off ill e back. I was getting alarmed at my fearful condition, and had given up all hope of relief, when I noticed that Dr J. A, Sherman's method was to be introduced into Slew Zealand I resolved to give it a trial, and certainly without any faith, as I conl d not imagine that by applying a com* pound to tho outside it would.cause a wound to heal inwardly, However, I consulted Mr Martin, and ho suited the treatment to my case, and I must say that I felt tho first day that life was worth living after all. Tho appliance is light, keeps its place, and having no pads to tou.ch the backbone. I have freedom to do anything, I have not finished the confound yet, a* I not only want the orifices closed, but made thoroughly strong, which will be very .shortly now. Consider the size of ihe openings, and tho short time I 'oave used the Sherman Remedies, I think it simply marvellous, and ns long as I live ! will do ,what I can to put all people who suffer from tho trouble on to the Sherm an Treatment, knowing that the benefit they will reccivo will causo them to tell others." Mey 28, 1904, A Manager of a large station- in Southland writes:«-" lam pleased to inform you that I have further trouble since I got your appliance in December last, and I think the cure is pretty well com ploted. though I have not yet gone for any length of lime without tho appliance.. I have still a little, of tho curative compound left, and lam still applying it. I have done the heaviest work this summor with the greatest of ease, and I can assure you lam very grateful for Dr Sherman's appliance," • ■ ITEBTIMONI.iI] •■.'■' Te Awamutu, April 3rd, 1905. Mr A, W, Martin, Dear Sir.-I have'tho 'greatest' pleasure in testifying to the relief I have obtained from Dr J. A.

I have suffered from a bad rupture on my left side for 25 years, and the agony I suffered is only known to those who are similarly.afflicted, I never folt safe in doing any heavy work, as the truss I won?, althongh considered to be the belt', was any thing but reliable.

Seeing your advertisement in the Auckland papers I made up my mind to see you On tbe2Bth of February I received your treatment, I can now wort; or ride with e,»se, safety, and comfort, and judging from tho improvement I havo mad.e these few weeks I have every confidence that tho treatment will cure me, I would not go back to- the old system of trusses if I was offered £SO to do so, lam well known in th!e Waikato district, and will be gladito express my relief to any sufferer, :'but I hav>eno tiimefor answering letters, You'may use this as you like.—l am, youn ■.,
