![•^M MEI6? C^3E'3 gPIN^It ^PP^^^M^.-!!^ [See Leading Article in Medical Record, New York, Dec. 27, 1884.] This apparatus applies to the treatment of Spine Disease the principle of ex- tension, already well estab- lished as a most efficient method for the cure of dis- eases of the joints. With this it combines these ad- ditional requirements in spinal cases: Relief from the weight of the head and shoulders (without casting the burden on some other part of the body); the straightening of the curves (by means of the traction I exerted by the weight of [the body itself); and op- , portunity for exercise without I restraint under these favor- __ able conditions. The results of daily exercise in this apparatus quickly demonstrate its utility. The patient improves rapidly in strength and height; the muscles concerned in maintaining an erect position are developed and invigorated, and a few weeks will frequently show a greater gain than can possibly be reached by months of treatment with the restrictive appliances in general use. For price, directions for measurement and use, and other information in respect to this apparatus, apply to POMEROY TRUSS COMPANY, 785 BROADWAY, N.
