But most of them absolutely worthless.
For to perfect a beneficial mechanical treatment requires, in addition to considerable mechanical ability, a thorough knowledge of rupture; something few have ever taken the pains to acquire.
But here at the Cluthe Rupture Institute we have had over forty years of day-after-day experience—and successful experience—in the study and treatment of nothing but rupture. And this has given us a thorough knowledge of the needs of ruptured people.
As with all the great discoveries which have done so much for suffering mankind, there were many weary years of disappointment before we finally perfected the simple mechanical treatment which has since brought complete recovery to thousands.
And, as shown in the following chapters, this simple, inexpensive way to relieve and overcome rupture is within the reach of every sufferer.
Moreover, as explained on page 65, every sufferer can easily prove its merits by trying it sixty days at our risk.
Our Forty Years of Experience
Day After Day We Have Dealt With
Every Form and Condition of Rupture

Learned his trade in the old country—over in Germany, where the world's finest surgical instruments are made.
