I commenced to use The Isham California Water of Life Dec. :5. 1895, for -dia etes of three or
four years’ standing, which was fast taking my life’s blood. I had. lost 30 or 40 pounds of flesh
appetite gone. flow of urine daily from 5 to 6 quarts, specxfic graVIty 10.34, with .large- quantity of
sugar, about four grains to the ounce. Mouth very.d.ijy day and night, which I relieved several
times in the day or night by water or fruits. I was forced to get up 4‘or times a night to urinate.
I have used one case of The-Isham California \Vater of Life, With the‘ fa lowmg results; Flow of
urine is only about 3 pints daily; do not have to get up'eit night; mouth natural; speCIfic gmwty of
urine is now from :02: to 10.24—19.35 than one gram of sugar to the ounce. I have a splendid
appetite; am gaining flesh, and consider myself a. well man. Ican cheerfully recommend the
water to those suffering from diabetes. I believe it has saved my life. It is ,a marvelous water.
