He is now a prisoner at Governor Island. General Corbin, the commandant of that place says:--

It is the most remarkable case I ever heard of. I don't think, in all my army experience, I have seen one like it.

HOW BILE BEANS WERE DISCOVERED,

„AVERYBODY has heard of the great

vefold remedy, bile beans. story of the discovery of this deservedly Famous medicine is worthy of publication. as showing the importance of the observa tion of little things. A few years ago Chas, Förde, an eminent Australian scientist; observation of was impressed by the Captain Cook that the Australian natives. kept themselves free from disease by using On this sub. certain vegetable essences.

wrote: I did not ject Captain Cook observe (amongst the natives) any ap pearance of disease or bodily complaint, or eruption of the skin. Very old men, without no signs of hair and tooth, showed deorepitude, and were full of vivacity."

Now, if this were so, and those essences could but again be discovered, what a boon they would be to modern man! Inspired by this thought, and armed with the in- plements of modern scientific research, Chas. Forde commenced an exhaustive investigation of the rich profusion of Australian herbs. After long research ho found himself the happy discover or of a vegetable substance which acted on the livor and digestive organs differently and better than any medicine known.

The

best laboratories, the most modern plant, and all that science dictated as being best for the purpose was requisitioned in the compounding of this substanco into con- venient from. The result of it all was the production, a few years back, of a medicine compounded in the form of small beans, which boing unequalled in their operation upon the liver and its secretion of bit, were called Bile Beans.'

Being the product of modern scientific research, bile beans are thoroughly up-to- dato. They do not merely purge, give temporary relief only, and leave the patient weakened; like the out-of-date, so-called remedies of forty or fifty years ago, which contain probably aloes, mercury, and other harmful druga. Bile beans, without the slightest discomfort, prompt the liver and digestive organs to act in Nature's normal way, leaving thoso organs strengthened and stimulated to continue the performance of their duties without further assistance. They produce a gentle action on the bowels, curing or preventing constipation, cleansing the stomach, and ridding the system of all impurities.

If you are unwell, and wish to know whether or not bile beans wi'l suit your case, you may write to the Bile Bean Manufacturing Co., Greek St., Leeds, England, where a gratified medical staff will carefully consider your symptoms, and you will be honestly answered whether or not Bile Beans have cured cases similar to yours.

Bile Beans are purely vegetable in com position, and are in certain oure, for in- digestion, biliousness, constipation, piles, Domis, debility, fem le ailments, skin, cruptions, all, liver ailments, and all dis- orders arising from defective bile flow and Assimilation. They are obtainable from all chemists and medicine vendors. Price 75 con's (Mex.)
