Spare moments can be well used
in this section looking for tin. If
you don’t find it in lumps do not be
discouraged. Much of it is as flue
as monazite.
There should be no guess
work about trusses. They
have an important mission.
They must do what they should
or they are worse than none.
Many are sacrificing comfort
and safety by wearing ill-fit
ting trusses. Others who
might lie cured by rightly fit
ting trusses are using none.
Those we carry are, we believe,
the right ones. Can be fitted
perfectly and exeit a steady,
even pressure. Wear well and
can’t easily get out of order.
