DANGEROUS DISEASE.-Every

one knows that cholera morbus is one of themost painful and dangerous diseases known to humanity. The fact that it is so swift and so often fatal in its résulte makes it more to be feared than almost any other malady. It often terminates in death be fore a physician can be summoned or medicine procured. Attacks of cholera morbus come unexpectedly and every family should be prepared. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is a reliable and effective medicine, and if given in time will prevent serious consequences. This remedy nover fails and is pleasant to take.

Japanese Strategy.

Russian military authorities assert that the Japanese are trying to drive the army of General Kutopatkin in Bouthern Man- churis into Mongolia, whore the Chine-e forces will be able to attack it without sorgmitting a breach of neutrality.

The Japanese Advance. The Japanese have occupied Siu- yen, in the north of the Liao-tung, 46 miles south- west of Kong ban cheng, with thron divi sions.

In marching from Fong-huan-chong to Lino-ang it is expected that they will avoid the difficult mountain pass of the Mo-tion-ling, north-west of Feng husn cheng, by establishing bases in the Nin chwang district, and using the Tina River

SCIENCE IN THE COLONIRS

A Gavar AMPERATUS

T...

USTRALIA, the land of gold, bas

A given to the world a great number of

marvellous things, but a discovery in that wonderful country made by a chemist and Scientist. Mr Charles Forde, will perhaps to be world generally than do more good

all the gold Australia ever has, or ever will, produce. This discovery is of a natural getable substance that has the peculiar property of acting in the process of diges- tion the same as Naturo's own animal Bilo. Mr Forde, realising the great value of this discovery and the boon it would be to the millions of digestion sufferers whe (xccord- ing to the regular medical science to dire) were martyrs to pepsin, bismuth, starving and purging, derided to spare no expense in perfecting the remedy to make it a cure For all digestion troubles and their atten- dant ailments.

The result of his experimenting was the addition of some eight other ingredients, and the whole being titled Bile Beans, a name given to express exactly what the preparation was- Bean for the Bile' The expense and care in perfecting and com- pressing this preparation to the size of a small bean was very great, but the result was a small oval bean that the smallest child can take with ease.

The consumption to date has nearly baffled the best efforts of the proprietors, their laboratories working night and day to meet the demand, which is now equivalent to about three quarters of a million doses per day. File Beans have been found an undoubted cure for headache, biliousness, influenza, constipation, piles, liver trouble, in breath, rheumatism, indigestion, dizziness, palpation, buzzing in the head, faltress after eating, loss of ambition, debility, amis, female ailments and irregularios, pimples, and a host of other vilments that owe their origin to defective hile flow, assimilation, and digo tion. They are also of great service in nervous dis- orders, loss of appetite, shortness of breath, blotches on the akin, insomnia and troubled sleep. They act quickly in nestoring females to health, and for a general aperient and tonic remedy they are unequalled These beans are placed on the market in such a form that anyone can take them without medical supervision; and, as the price is so very low, there are few homes that cannot afford to always have a box on the shelf for emergency.

If you are unwell, and would like to know whether or not Bile Boans are suitable for your case you may write to the proprietors, the Bile Bean Manufacturing Co., Greek St., Leeds, England, marking your letter Private. You will thon ro- ceive a fair and unprejudiced opinion and will be told whether or not the beans have ever cured a case similar to your own.

Bile Beans are purely vegetable in com- position, and are a certain cure for in- digestion, bilinusness, constipation, piles, anaemia, debility, fem le ailments, skin, eruptions, all liver ailments, and all dis- orders arising from defective bile flow and assimilation. They are obtainable from all chemists and medicino vendors. Price 75 cents (Mex.)
