"I Took Them."
The laws relating to the unlawful taking of other people's property are somewhat stringent in the colonies, hut their administration is occasionlly 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 'ong term of imprisonment ; whereas, the well-connected wrong-doer when charged with ihe 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 results in benefit, but there is a preparation now being sod throughout the Australian Go'onies — Bile Beans for Biliousness—which, when used, cause people to joyfully say "I took them." These beans are a purely vegetable preparation, and the result of years of thoughtful research on the part of an American medical man. The use of any, even the slightest deleter ious substance, is most carefully avoided. They have been compounded with the especial object of assisting the liver, stomach and k'dneys to thoroughly and effectually perform their natural functions. If any of the foregoing organs of the digestive system are impared, ill health is the result ; and, in fact, nine-tenths of all the ilia whiob affect mankind to-day are directly
traceable to deranged digestive organs. Aa Bile Beans will restore those organs to their proper working order, they will prove efiicaciou-i in removing the causes of a great m . jority of the ailments from which men and wiinen unfortunately suffer today. Thpy have done this in thousands of cases, and innumerable men and wo 'ien to-day find themselves in a position of great benefit through being able to say " I have taken them,"
