CONSTIPATION CONQUERED. Another Success for Bile Beane. “HI were asked to specify the disease or ailment of the day, I should unhesitatingly answer—‘ Constipation.’ ’’ So says one of the greatest medic?! writer* of the present day. Undoubtedly he is right! Just imagine a town with every drain stopped. Would you be surprised to find pestilence and fever abound? Hardly! Where Constipation exiata, the drains which Nature has provided to clear the body of its impurities are out of order, and the impurities are left in the body. The result is that every organ of the body is rendered foul. The liver and digestive organs become clogged and unable to fulfil their proper functions, the appetite is destroyed, the head either aches or feels dull and heavy, there is heat and feverishness, a dreary don’t-care-about-anything feeling, a sensation of irritability with everybody and everything. Sometimes, also, Constipation bring* on Piles. Now if you nave any ot these uymjttoms, remember that Constipation i* their root cause. Remember also that the root cure for Constipation, and indirectly for all these organs, is a vegetable essence concentrated in Bile Bean*. Mrs. Jane Spriggs, of Great King Street, Dunedin, says:—“Too much cannot be said of the benefits to be derived from the use of Bile Beans for complaints arising from a disordered liver. About twelve months ago I Buffered considerably with Corstipaticn and pains in the head. The agony I experienced at times was almost unendurable. I underwent a course of Bile Beans, and they acted like magic, for they promptly cured the Constipation and dispelled my headaches. I also suffered with Diabetes in the mouth, but tbis d*o disappeared with the other conplaiut*. Indeed, I cannot speak too highly of Bile Beans, as they have made a different woman of roe. 1 never fail to recommend them to fellow-sufferers. Bile>Beans are obteinable general!? throughout New Zealand.
