No man wants to be disabled for active work, no man wants to be dependent on others. That has been the fate of thousands who never knew of the Cluthe Truss, or who didn't have the wisdom to try it. But you who read this, now that you know the facts, have absolutely no excuse for ever letting rupture get the best of you. [Sidenote: Don't Let Rupture Get the Best of You] No one's fault but your own, if you now let your rupture keep on growing worse. No one but yourself to blame if you don't take the chance we give you to find out, by trial at our risk, just what the Cluthe Truss can do for you. It will be _our_ loss and not yours if this truss doesn't at least make you a whole lot better. But _your_ loss, not ours, if you neglect to _try_ it. Unless you have already let your rupture become permanently irreducible the probabilities are that the Cluthe Truss can entirely free you from the clutches of rupture, just as it has thousands of others. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by trying a Cluthe Truss. If it doesn't do any good, we'll take it back and you won't lose any money. [Sidenote: Ends all Expense on Account of Your Rupture] If it does prove beneficial, it will in all probability last as long as you have any need for a truss. For it is mighty seldom that any part of a Cluthe Truss ever gives out, even when, as in incurable cases, it is worn year after year. So once you get a Cluthe Truss, you'll probably never have to pay out another dollar on account of your rupture. The Cluthe Truss costs so little-- only $9 to $14-- that every body not a pauper can easily afford it. Costs so little-- when you consider the good it does-- that no one can afford to go without it. You can get lots of trusses that cost less and some that cost even more-- but one Cluthe Truss is worth a dozen of them. Every thrifty man knows that good _shoes_, for instance, are more economical than cheap ones; for the cheap shoes soon go to pieces, soon get shabby; one good pair would outlast three or four of the cheap ones. Every man knows that good shoes-- shoes that keep the feet dry-- are less expensive in the end than shoes which leak and bring on colds and sickness. [Sidenote: Like Buying Shoes] And every man knows that properly fitting shoes, shoes you can wear with comfort, are worth three or four pairs of shoes which hurt the feet. For no matter how little the uncomfortable shoes cost, you can't get your money's worth out of them if you can't wear them. Lots of people have common-sense enough to think of all these things in buying shoes. But lots of them let their common-sense go on vacation when it comes to buying trusses. Yet a truss is a hundred times more important than shoes. Think how much depends on a truss-- your comfort, your ability to make a living, your safety when working, even your very life sometimes, all depend on your truss.
