Because they don't waste time on symptoms, but get back 20 the real root cause! Nature has pro- vided that the liver shall secrete a sub- stance which, operating on the intes- tines, shall prevent the congestion which causes piles. Bileans do not. merely soothe the congested veins. They act on the liver cells. enable them to start their work and then the agony of piles disap- pears as does a river tlood when the ice jam is removed. Mr. Thos. Plunkett.‘ of 472 Manning Ave. Toronto, sayszâ€""For three or [our years I suffered from constipation and piles. I also had severe headaches. All sorts of remedies were recommended to me but I tried them in vain. Bileans were very different however. From first trying them I found benefit, and now if anybody wishes to know anything about Bileans I will be glad to tell them how superior they are." v A lump of sugar saturated in vinegar is said to cure hiccough.

Mr. Bucknr‘ll, to whose house the bones were first taken. was still unable to explain the noise which he heard on the night the bones were brought to his house. “It woke mo up,” he said. “My wife thoughl it. might. be an owl. but. there are many owls round here, and I know the sound of their hoot loo well to be mislaken. “I believed it might be a plovcr which had flown against the telegraph wires and broken its wing. as oflen happens. but in that case I should have found the bird or some of its feathers next morn- inn. “Antiquarians regard the discovery as the most ilnpt'lrtflltt for many years. and believe the woman to have been the high priestess of the Temple of Avebury.
