Then the _healing_ process begins. Nature, no longer handicapped by the protruding bowel and hardened ring at the opening, and stimulated by the action of the Lymphol, throws out _her_ supply of lymph, and the opening is again filled with _new muscle_. Isn’t this simple? Isn’t it _reasonable_?... Simply _write_ us and we will post you a _free sample treatment of_ the Developing Lymphol and a finely illustrated book on The Nature and Cure of Rupture. Do _not_ send any money. Just your _name_ and _address_ on this Coupon. Application for particulars of the method of cure brought a book of 40 pages, entitled “The Nature and Cure of Rupture,” with a letter, directions for measurement, and other papers. It would seem that if the applicant does not at once become a customer, other letters and booklets are sent at intervals. The titles of some of these booklets which are before us are: “First Aid to the Ruptured,” “The Value of a Cure,” “A Fireside Reverie,” “Facts and Faces,” “The Story of Christopher Columbus,” and “The Man Who Wondered Why.” However much the matter varies, it always leads to the subject of the cure of rupture by Rice’s Treatment. The treatment consists of the wearing of an “Appliance” (occasionally referred to as “my perfect truss”) and the application of “Developing Lymphol.” The respective parts stated to be played by these are indicated by the following extracts from some of the pamphlets referred to: To be cured of rupture it is necessary to apply my Lymphol Developing Treatment regularly as directed, for it is the Lymphol, not the Appliance, that performs the cure. The Appliance is simply a means of support to retain the rupture, and prevent the protrusion from tearing down the new particles of tissue with which the opening is being filled under the vitalizing and healing influence of the Lymphol. The appliance is supplied in two grades or qualities. The price of the Appliance and Lymphol together ranged from 21s. for a child’s single appliance of the cheaper grade to £4 10s. for an “Abdominal Supporter and Navel Appliance Combined,” of the higher grade. It was stated in the price list that the lymphol and appliance were not supplied separately; but in another list sent with the goods the lymphol alone was priced at 16s. 6d. The bottle sent held just over four fluid ounces. The directions were: Lie on your back, remove appliance, unscrew stopper, and sprinkle a few drops of the Lymphol on to the point where the rapture leaves the cavity of the abdomen. Apply night and morning, rubbing in thoroughly with fingers. If irritation is produced, use less Lymphol, or discontinue its use for a few days. The Lymphol may be reduced in strength by adding Spiritus Rectificatus which can be obtained from any chemist.
