Men, Women and Children Rupture Expert representing Wm. S. Rice, of Adams, N. Y., inventor of the famous Rice NonSurgical Treatment for Rupture will be at the Carleton Hotel. Hammond, Ind., afternoon and evening of February 22, and all day and evening of February 23. Every ruptured man, woman or parents of ruptured children should take advantage of this opportunity to get an absolutely FREE TRIAL of this famous Rice Treatment. The Rice method for rupture is known the whole world over. You can now obtain it on trial

without risking a single penny, i Simply go to the hotel and ask for j the Rice representative. No mat

ter if your rupture is hard to hold or if long standing or what you have tried in your efforts to cure

j it, the trial is for everyone who is ruptured whether young or old. If you have tried everything else and failed, you still have the privilege of this free trial of the Rice Method. If your rupture has

i hampered and annoyed you in youi

work or pleasure, now is the opportunity to learn how perfectly the Rice Method is adapted to your case, and how easily it can be applied to any rupture. Why wear a truss all your life when thousands have reported cures through using the Rice Method. Why suffer the burden of rupture if there is a chance to be free from truss-wearing forever? You want to be relieved of your rupture so why not take advantage of this opportunity and find out what the Rice Method holds in store for you. Thousands of formerly ruptured sufferers have been able to throw away their old fashioned steel and spring trusses after using the Rice Method so why not you? It will not cost you a penny to test this out, and surely there can be no more positive proof of confidence in my Method than to let you try it free. I can afford to make you this offer ' because it is to convince you in your own mind that this is a vastK different, scientific and successful : Method for Rupture. i In justice to yourself, go to the

hotel and see the Rice Representative. He will be in Hammond only two days, and you should grasp the opportunity now. Remember; with the Rice Method there is no operation, pain, danger or detention from work or pleasure. You can go about your daily duties with greater comfort than you have ever though possible. Anyway the trial is free so you can go to the hotel and see for yourself just what the Rice representatives have to offer. You do not place yourself under the slightest obligation hy accepting this in

vitation, and this free trial will prove a revelation to every ruptured person in Hammond and vicinity. Remember the dates and place : Carleton Hotel, Hammond Ind, afternoon and evening of Feb

ruary 22 and all day and evening of February 23. Hours 9 to 12 A. M., 2 to 5 P. M.. 7 to 9 evenfags. Don't miss the free trial. WM. S. RICE, Adams, N, Y,
