" I TOOK THEM."

-♦— — The laws relating to the unlawful taking ol 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 a«d hunger, appropriated to hie 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 hie "I took them," received a eentence far from commenaura.te.with his crime. The illgotten pro/perty of such actions never result in benefit, but there i» » preparation now being sold throughout the Australian colonies—Bile Beans for Biliousness-—which, when used, cause people to joyfully »ay, "I took them." Th*se Beans are a purely vegetable preparation, and the result of years of thoughtful reseach 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 ofj 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. As Bile Beans will restore those organs to their proper working order they will prove efficacioue 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 to-day find themselves in a position of gTeat benefit through being able to say, "I have taken them."
