A Splendid Invastment.

WHAT A FEwWIiINGS DID

FOR A PERTH MAN.

Early iu the present decade there was living in Melbourni' a member of that sturdy vase that rrwkes'its way to every corner of the earih. George Nelson was his name, his birthplace the "land of biowu heath and shaggy wood." Mr Nelson was a member of a Rechabite' lodge, and as such was entitled to Ihe benefits accruing to its members. For tnany.niuiiths he was on the sick list, and< as he conceived, a burden to his fellow members.. They however, loyally stood by him, and after months ol iredical treatmentfor biliousness ar.d chronic headache, accompanied by daily rec.iiiriiig fits pi vomitting, his lodge sent him on a trip to his mrther.country in search ol health. But for Mr Nelson returned no bettor in health than when he had departed' twelve months previously. _ Again the man's conscience urged him to relieve his fellows of the burden that he felt himself to be,, and his strict views of right and wrong prompted him to resign his membership. Mr Nelson is now a citizeu of Perth, where, as senioi member of the firm of Nelson, Moir, and Co., lie carries on. at William and Aberdeen streets, the business o general contractors, builders, ant carpenters, combining therewith th< work of crushing horse feed, etc., foi the trade. One of our reporters having heard something of Mr Nelson's pro longed ailment, followed by a suddei recovery of health, waited upon hin with a ~ view to obtaining some eiv lightment as to the treatment he hac undergone.

"For years," said Mr Nelson, in reply to our reporter, " I have suffered from biliousness in such, a form as .to make my life a misery. Constant headache and morning vomiting kept me in a condition that made existence wretched. I took medicines as pre scribed by medical men, and mixtures sold by chemists, without,benefit." "Have you never tried patent medicines, Mr Nelson ?" "Well, one or two; but I'm prejudiced against patent medicines. I won't say I am prejudiced, but I was till lately." Seeing; Bile Beans so widely advertised as a remedy for the complaint which was torturing mo, I ventured to try a box. Tbe first box gave me relief such as I hadn't known for yoars, seeing which I continued the treatment until I had used a number of boxes, and was absolutely cured." The was a note of triumph in his voice as he said that. "All the same, continued Mr Nelson, "I always keep a box handy, and if the old symptoms should show a sign of recurring, I am prepared for thrm." " Have you recommended tho remedy to any of your friends, Mr Nelson?"

"You bet," was the emphatic reply. " More than that. Not knowing that Bile Beans were to be had injany part of the world, I bought Beveral boxes, and have sent them to my friends in Scotland. I will be pleased to let you know the results when I hear from them," he added,

" Presumably, then, Mr Nelson, you don't think you made a bad invest meut when you bought those three .boxes'of the Beans?"

" I made the best investment of my life when I bought them. Why, work is a pleasure to mo now. I hope that the publication of-the results in uiy case will result in others being benefited as I have teen; and I may add that I shall be ready to afford information to those who have suffered as I havp, in the hope that they, like me, I may obtain a relief that is wholly due to the use of Bile Beans."

the testimony of men of strict integrity is valuable to the public as a guarantee of tho benefits of such a remedy as Bilo Beans;. and in the interests of those of the public who have suffered like Mr Nelson has, we give publicity to the above facts,
