The ideal boat for home use and training purposes. Used by the leading athletic clubs, colleges and prominent oarsmen of the world, and pronounced the most perfect rowing machine ever produced. Fitted with the Kerns’ Patent Roller Seat and Shoes, the shoes having a three-inch adjustment, to suit either a tall or a short person. By turning a thumb-nut the belt can be tightened to any desired degree, and more or less friction thrown into the running parts, imitating the resistance which exists when forcing a row-boat through the water. The weaker sex can use the machine by simply loosening the thumb-nut which reduces the resistance; and on the other hand, by reversing the operation the resistance can be so increased that the strongest athlete can have any amount of resistance. The oars are pivoted in such a way that the operator can handle and turn them the same as he would during the return and feathering motion with a boat oar.

The Spalding Automatic Abdominal Masseur
A Safe and Sure Cure for Constipation and Other Kindred Ailments
Useful for treatment of constipation, based upon the principle of muscular contraction (the force which nature uses). By its mechanical arrangement, it effectually applies force in the same direction that nature does, and will gradually discard the use of cathartics. Only a few moments’ use at the proper time is necessary before its effects will be felt. Its action upon the liver and stomach is equally as prompt and effective, and derangements of these organs are speedily remedied.

Gentlemen: I have used the Spalding Automatic Abdominal Masseur in my practice for over fifteen years. I have found it of great benefit in chronic constipation and indigestion. Your improvement increases its value.
Very truly yours, WALTER A. FORD, M.D.
