 F I had Diabetes myself for many years had exhausted the best of medical talent here without result--lt steadily progreas- cd till heard that there was a cure for 1t in San Francisco. It looked unreas0n@ able. but sent for it. In few weeks was on the mend and in six months was in my usual health and strength. I then put an engineer of our road on if, He was broken down with Diabetes and was retired. In a few months he was back to his old position on his engine. Later my son, aged thirteen years, was diseCv- cred by our physicians to be in an ex- trene condition as the result of Brisht's Disease They felt certain he could not live but short while. I got the treat ment for him and he is now, to our de- light, strong and vigorous again ahd at school and growing wonderfully.
