"I TOOK THEM."
The laws relating to the unlawful taking of other people's property are somewhat stringent in the colonies, but their administration is occasionally the cause of much comment. It has frequently been noticed that the unfortunate who, when perhaps pressed by want and hunger, appropriates to his own use a small sum, is sentenced to a long term of imprisonment; whereas the well-connected wrongdoer, when charged with the larceny of perhaps thousands of pounds, has frequently, in reply to his "I took them," received a sentence far from commensurate with his crime. The ill-gotten property of such actions never result in benefit, but there is a preparation now being sold throughout the Australian ' colonies —Bilei Beans for Biliousness — which, when used, cause people to joyfully say, "I took them." These Beans ace a purely vegetable preparation, and the result of years of thoughtful research on the part of a medical man. The use of any, even the slightest deleterious substance, is most carefully avoided. They have been compounded with the especial object of assisting the liver, stomach and kidneys to thoroughly and effectually perform their natural functions. If any of the foregoing organs of the digestive system are impaired ill-health is the result; and, in fact, nine-tenths of all the ills which affect mankind to - day are directly traceable to deranged digestive organs. Afi Bile Beans will restore those organs to their proper working order they will prove efficacious in removing the causes of a great majority of the ailments from which men and women unfortunately suffer to-day. They have done this in thousands of cases, and innumerable men and women today find themselves in a position of great benefit through being able to say, "I have taken them."
