" must attend to duties in spite of constantly aching backs. or headaches. dizzy spells, bearing-down pains they must stoop over, when to stoop means torture. They must walk and bend and work with racking pains and many aches and kidney ills. Kidneys cause more suffering than any other organ of the body. Keep the kidneys well and health is easily maintained. Read of 2 remedy for kidneys only, that helps and cures the kidneys and is endorsed by people you know.
 Mrs Selina Jones of 200 Main St., Ansonia, Conn.,, says: T think if it had not been for Deans Kidney Pills 1 would not be alive to-day. Seven years ago was in such bad condition with pains and aches across my back and other weakness that was obliged to keep to my room, and was at times confined to my bed for six weeks before l could get around. Seeing Deans Kid ney Pills advertised began taking them and inside of a week the terrific backache, pains and soreness across the Joins and the headaches had vanished as we'll as the feeling of general weak ness and languor.
