Success Of Elmer Woodbuy's New Mineral
Spring Product.

Dury OF TINS city Is 4 busy man tncSc
days. That is not the same saying
that he isn't always busy man, hut in
addition To his large and growing rcst1u-
rant business, he is the general eastern
agent for lshams California Water of
Life. and that water has been doing some
wonderful things and making some re-
markable cures here. In fact 1t has be
come to quite a degree the talk of the
town, and as such is worthy of special
attention.
The Isham springs burst out Of the
brow of a hill under the shadow of Mt.
San Miguel, Cal, a point destined 50 Mr..
lSham believes. to be the great resort OF
those who need to seek for health. 1t is
a charming country, tropical in climate,
picturesque in location, aDOunulnS III nat
ural advantages.
The Isham water has only been before
the country few years, but has rapidly
gone to the front. The attention of Mr..
Woodbury. was personally called to the
Isham water a few months ago. He was
getting bald, and tried every way to stop
the falling out of his hair, but III vain.
He saw an advertisement Of the Isham
water. and sent his check for Sl2. for a
case. The result of the investment Is told
in the following letter:
Portland. Me-. oct. $, 1899.
Mr.. Alfred II. Isham ~ Y. City:
Dear Sir:-I have used one case of your
waters with satisfactory results; it
stopped my hair from falling out in As
hours and in few weeks | noticed Il new
growth coming. To my delight; it also
relieved my rheumatism in a hours. |
am now prepared to believe all that you
claim for the waters.

He has since sold 152 cases and con
sidering the short time he mas handled
the lsham water. has large and con-
stantly growing number Of testimonials,
and 1t may he added fine growth of
thick hair.
The Isham water is a natural solvent.
and rapidly removes from the system the
deposits likely at any time to destroy the
health, and sure in time to bring about
decay and what we call cd age. The eX-
cess of lime is removed from the system.
something it is claimed no other agency
known to science will fully accomplish.
Mr.. Woodbury. will soon be literally
surrounded by cloud of witnesses right
at home. For instance, Fred H. Finer
son, baggage master on b. 4 NJ. Railroad
at Portland. has been great sufferer
because Of kidney troubles. He tried a
Bottle Of the lsham water, ana felt bet
