DISEASE OF THE HEART,
PALPITATION

nNE Of the most distressing diseases that flesh
~ is heir to. a person subject to it is liable to
an attack at any moment, whether lying. sitting
or walking. Its attack is sudden, and oftentimes
without any premonition whatever, and too, often.
times without any appreciable cause, and the re-
lief that be afforded to the poor patient during
the paroxysm, is exceedingly unsatisfactory, for
but little can be done that will in any way give
much relief
This, of all other diseases that have attempt
ed to treat upon, is the most important not only
from its being oftentimes of 80 difficult removal,
but from its being so exceedingly liable to run in
to that structural organic disease of the heart,
for which there is no cure and would the space be
allowed me, should feel in duty bound to suffer-
ing humanity to make use of several columns in
this paper, that might throw all the light DOS
sible for me to do, upon this oil important disease,
its causes, indications of cure treatment, &c. &C.,
in the hope that might be the humble means Of
awakening sufferers with this disease to true
sense or their perifous condition, and stimulate
them to lose no time in adopting some mode Of
treatment that would throw off that condition Of
the system which is the cause of the functional de-
rangement.
There are two kinds of Palpitation, viz (: That
proceeding from organic disease Of the heart, or
disease of its muscular substance, and functional
no cure: it is often palliated, but neper curcd.-
For the latter. although all treatment has been by
some of the highest authorities discarded and dis
carded because (as they say 80 little, if any, sue.
cess attends any remedial effort that may be made.
Yet well directed treatment is not only of most
signal benefit, but will effect cure, providing the
grand cause Of the functional arrangement be
we'll understood, and q treatment instituted with
direct reference to it. So far from describing all
treatment, it certainly should receive the closest
investigation md scrutiny, and every possible ex-
ertion should be used towards its removal, lest
its continuance should bring about the structural
organic disease Of the heart, which, in nine cases
out of ten, is the result of prolonged, uncured and
uncared for functional disease.
Organic, or that incurable disease of the mus
cuar structure of the heart, is produced, as al
ready said, by the nervous or functional disease
Of that organ, and from this fact, the functional
disease should have every remedial attention paid
to it, in the hope that, it be too late, treat.
ment may be instituted that will do away with the
of the functional, and thus the occur
renee of the organic. And now, what is the cause
of the nervous palpitation, or functional disease
of the heart? But before answering this question,
let us see what are generally, the accompanying
symptoms. The pulse. generally, are from 80 to
ll0-tongue clean, red and swollcn-irritation
and redncss about the tonsils-bowels generally
generally very Irregular and flushed
face-tenderness ut the pit of the stomach-accid-
ity and fatulence-sleep nrefreshing-depres-
sion of spirits Of hours duration-feet cold-skin
highly sensitive to changes in the atmosphere. &c.,
&c., giving the most positive assurance of high
ly copgested and irritated condition of the mucus
membrane Of the digestive organs The cause,
then, Of nervous papitation, functional derange-
ment of the heart has its origin in disease of the
stomach and digestive organs, the removal of
which is Of the first importance, for by so doing
We cure the functional disease, and steer our pa
tent clear of that terrible structural organic dis.
ease of the heart, for which there is no cure, and
but very little relief from pnlliatives. And by the
by, will here take occasion, to remark, for the
benefit of sufferers, that as general thing where
functional diseases is stubborn and of difficult re-
moval, physicians are apt to impute their i'll sue
cess to the disease having passed into the structu
raj organic disease, and so l would say to oil, be
not dismayed, for your physicians may be mista-
ken, and you may yet be relieved by timely ap-
plication to proper remedies.
The true indication of treatment, then, is the
removal of the highly irritated and congested con-
dition of the digestive organs; and if there is any
disease requiring the most particular selection
in remedies, this most certainly is one, not only
UcCuuSc uoSt udJ Uc iOSl Ill Tue ID
king improper remedies, but the exhibition of re.
medies not consistent with the true condition of
the stomach, may increase still more the disease,
and hasten on the structural organic disease
The remedy, above all others for this disease, is
"BLISS' DYSPEPTIC REMEDY,"-a remedy in
which the most implicit confidence may be placed, I
for, if taken, closely according to directions to-
gether with living up to all the accompanying di.
rections, so for as circumstances will permit, it
will most assuredly effect permanent and speedy
cure. To all subject to this disease, would say,
get this medicine at once, and lose no time in pa
cling your system under its remedial influence, for
every day lost brings you just so much nearer to
that ineura6ls disease-organic disease of the
heart.
