THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTWe have reached too advanced a stage in the path of rational progress for any medical scholar to ignore the fact that organic elasticity is the only source of mechanical power which, in a truss, can act in perfect harmony with every variety of muscular contraction. The Triumph Truss Company claim to have attained this point in their celebrated Triumph Truss. This company was founded about seventeen years ago by Prof. W. H. Burnham, the well known medical expert. He was for many years registrar and director of the Syracuse Medical College. During the war he was First Major-Surgeon in Ex-Secretary Belknap's Fifteenth Iowa Regiment. He has made a specialty of hernia surgery and the cure of rupture for over forty-five years, and is now chief surgeon to the Triumph Truss Company. He is ably assisted in his noble calling by Mrs. C. A. M. Burnham, A.M., M.B.. who is in charge of the ladies' department. She is probably the only woman in the world with the distinction of two degrees in medicine and arts. A branch establishment is located at Philadelphia and is under the care of Dr. C. W. H. Burnham. The New York establishment at No. 71 Third Avenue is handsomely fitted up and contains every convenience for the comfort of patients. Everything in the way of trusses, supporters, bandages, belts, and other surgical appliances, are always kept. The goods manufactured by this well known and reliable company are recognized by the medical fraternity as the best products of science and surgical skill.
