AN OLD VETERAN'S GRATITUDE.

BILE BEANS END 17 YEARS OF INDIGESTION AFTER ALL OTHER TREATMENTS FAIL. An interesting personality is Mr. James Siddons, master mariner, soldier, explorer, and octogenarian, who gives a graphic description of his terriblo sufferings from indigestion, his vain endeavours to obtain relief, and his remarkable restoration to health by Bile Beans. Mr. Siddons is an inmate of the Veterans' Home, Mount Roskill, Auckland, N.Z., and says:—"For 17 long years I was a great sufferer from indigestion, brought on by hardship during many years of seafaring life. At times I was completely prostrated with dizziness, pains in the side.and back, attacks of retching, sick headache, and other distressing symptoms, and was often utterly incapacitated for work. I tried many so-called remedies in the hope of ridding self of the indigestion, but my efforts wore in vain. I sought the advice of doctors, chemists and other medical men, but their treatment, too, proved utterly futile, and I continued suffering. The wonderful curative properties of Bile Beans were brought to my notice by a friend in Gisborne, who strongly advised mo to give them a trial. And a sound recommendation it proved. I at once procured a box of the Beans, and started on them. Even from the first few doses I began to feel their beneficial virtues: the pains in my back and side disappeared; my appetite, which previously was so poor, began to return; vomiting became a thing of the past; my head no longer ached as though it were under a heavy weight; and my eyes became clearer and brighter. I continued taking Bile Beans —gave them a fair trial and underwent a thorough courso—and was soon cured of the indigestion, after having been a martjr for 17 years. In fact, I honestly believe that Bile Beans were the means of saving my life. I served for three years in the Crimean war, and am well on in years now, having passed my 79th birthday, but still very active for my age, and I attribute my health and activity to Bile Beans. If at any time I feel run down, a Bik Bean puts new life and energy into me. I cannot speak too highly of this great family medicine, and urge all sufferers to give them a trial." Bile Beans are obtainable from all chemists and stores at 16 l£d and 2s 9d per box. . ...
