Deans Kidney Pills have always relieved these attacks and in a few days I have felt as we'll and strong as ever"

When 1 again opened my eyes the room was dark save for a shaded night light near the bed Lillian was sitting near me, watching me intently. She rose as I smiled at her, bent over me, testing pulse, temperature and respiration.
