A CURIOUS CALCULATION.
Around the World 2oe Times.

An eminent physician has made curious
mathematical calculation in giving the
workings of the human heart in mileage.
He shows that in lifetime of "a years
the blood as it passes through the heart is
thrown distance of 5, l50,S8O miles, which,
in continuous stream, would reach around
the world 206 times
Keeping in view this constant strain on
the heart, and taking into consideration the
abuse it receives from over-exertion, alco-
holic and other stimulants, is it any wonder
that it finally becomes affected, refuses to
perform its work, and causes deathH The
fact can be readily understood that one in
four has weak heart, also the Importance OF
treating that organ as soon as its affected con-
dition is in the slightest degree manifested.
Reader, if you have any reason whatever
for believing your heart to be affected, you
should attend to it at once. Do not hest
tate. Many persons who die suddenly Of this
disorder have never suspected its presence.
