what we want to find here is a point of support, from which the body may be elevated towards the erect attitude; and this we shall discover in the hip or pelvis, from which the deviation has taken place. It was this discovery that led to the invention of our Invisible Crutch, by which the body may be elevated a full inch the very first day that it is worn, and when the organs have attained some strength in that posture, the frame may be again raised, and this process be repeated until the normal position has been fully attained and the cure is complete. And all this, be it observed, may be attained without lying on the back or chest, constant confinement, pain, or inconvenience—not even the derangement of the dress. The support is as invisible as it is efficient, and affords nothing but pleasure and comfort to the wearer.
All our adaptations are constructed upon the same principle.
The poking of the head is remedied by our Patent Collar for the Neck, which fits under the chin, and supports it in its natural position. It is worn without any pressure. The elastic nature of the substance allows of perfect free motion of the neck.
In connexion with the subject, we may mention,
