as could not even hold glass to my lips to
drink, but was fed with a spoon. I now 90 to
bed, rise and dress myself, and walk about my
room without assistance. My physician and
several of my friends have tried the water them
selves, and among them an uncle who is great
sufferer from kidney trouble, who have already
experienced great benefit. He and others want
to come with me-"
