The external surface being covered with a non- absorbent material (Okonite) of a flesh colour, resembling ivory, they cannot bo detected when bathing; they are absolutely impervious to moisture, perspiration, and the acid excretions of the skin, cannot rust or get out of order, cause no cutaneous irritation, will hold securely any size provision without pain, may be washed when necessary with impunity, and can therefore be worn any length of time in any climate without becoming offensive, as is the case with those constructed with leather, elastic, and other objectionable materials of a porous character. Skull's Okonito Trusses for Rupture weigh only a few ounces, and being practically indestructible, can be guaranteed to last a lifetime, thus involving no further expense to the purchaser beyond first cost, and the undoubted advantages they possess over every other truss extant" constitute them as absolutely the best, and therefore the cheapest, that can be procured.
