strap C,which passes npwardalong the right groin. 'lhe parte are then in the position shown in Fig. l, with the strap C passing up the left groin around the waist and fastened to the strap Cover the right groin, the band D crossing the abdomen just above the sore# tum, and the strap lt passing from the bag backward between the limbs to the strap C. Now when the straps C C are buckled tightly it will be evident that jected to an upward and sidewisc pull by means of such straps. rl'liis will be resisted by the elastic strap lt, which will tend to pull the bag backward between the limbs. liront these contrary strains that part of the ring lB between the straps C C (marked ci ZJ in the drawings) will be straightened outand pressed forcibly7 against the neck of the scrotum, thus stopping the flow of blood into the affected veins wholly or in part. By this means they are reduced to the normal size and retained in that condition. 'lhe bag A lifts the veins up toward the abdomen, and the ring l cuts across the neck of tne scrotum, stopping the flow of blood, as above stated. Thus the supporting-bag and rubber ring act together. This method-results in the cure of varicocele without rendering an operation necessary.
I claim- In a suspensory, the combination of a bag A, for supporting the scrotum, an elastic ring B, secured to the circular edge of the bag, straps C C', attached to the front of the bag, and an elastic strap E, connected to the bag through the loop F on its rear edge and passing backward and upward between the thighs and attached lto the straps C C', whereby the elastic ring B is drawn forcibly backward and pressed against the front of the neck of the scrotum, cutting off the flow of'blood into the veins, substantially as described.

.To all whom t may concern.-
.Be it 'known' that l, ALFRED DENT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lemars, in the county of Plymouth, lowa, have invented a new and useful improvement in Suspensories, of which the followingis a specification.
The object of my invention is to construct a suspensory adapted to press against the neck of the scrotum to prevent the flow of blood into the veins thereof.
in the drawings, Figure l is a perspective view of my improvement applied, and Fig. 2 a perspective View oi the bag and means for supporting the same.
A is the bag; B, an elastic ring; C C', bands encircling the waist and connected with the bag A; l), a band connecting the bands C C', and E a supporting-band attached at its ends to the band C and connected with the bag A. 'lhe bag A is preferably knitted or woven of any suitable size, and is attached in any suitable manner to a rubber or elastic ring B. lhis ring is made of somewhat heavy material and of proper size to encircle the neck of the scrotum. 'lo support this bag in place, I provide the straps or bands C, C', and E. The straps C C are fastened, as shown, to the front of the ring B and, passing up over the hips around the waist, are buckled or otherrlo prevent the straps from being pulled over the hips, I prefer to provide an elastic strap D, as shown. The strap E is preferably made of some elastic material and is connected to the bag by means ot' a loop F, as shown in liig. 2, the strap being preferably covered with leather to allow it to slide freely back and forth in the loop. The strap or band lt is passed through this loop and its ends are then attached to the band C.
In applying thc device thelcftleg is passed between tho bands C and lt, both portions of thc band lil boing at thc back of the person wearing thc device. The strap C is then brought around the waist and buckled to the Witnesses:
