What We Have Done For 290,000 Others
Reading edition
At this writing we have treated at our Institute, over 290,000 ruptures.
These included all kinds and conditions. Some of them the worst cases in history.
Many of these people, in despair, were at the point of undergoing an operation. But the Cluthe Truss made operation unnecessary—saved the big expense—saved the terrible risk.
Among those we have fitted by mail are many infants from a few months to a few years old.
And even these little ones wore the Cluthe Truss in absolute comfort while being made better, while being cured.
We don't need to tell you it would be cruelty to put any other truss on children.
From Infants To Men Over 80
We have fitted by mail men and women over 60, 70 and 80 years old.
People who had been ruptured for from twenty to fifty years.
People who had tried dozens of other trusses. But never found one that would hold.
Some were in such bad shape—in such pain—that they hadn't worked for years.
Some of them, before getting Cluthe Trusses, couldn't walk more than two or three blocks without resting. Could hardly get around at all for fear of bad effects on their rupture.
And the Cluthe Truss, with its strengthening massage, has worked thousands of cures in cases apparently hopeless like these.
While in those cases where cure wasn't brought about—or hasn't yet been—this truss kept the rupture from coming out, and made the rupture better.
We keep in touch with all our patients—our interest doesn't cease until we know they are getting along all right. Yet we have known of only a few cases, including the worst ones, where the rupture ever came out after the first few days' wear of this truss.
Think of that—you who had almost given up hope.
You can see for yourself what the Cluthe Truss has done by reading a few of the letters—all voluntarily written—which are printed at the back of this book. These letters are only a few out of the thousands we have received.
