HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE
RAPID INCREASE OF HEART
TROUBLES.

Do Not be Alarmed, but Look for the
Cause.
Heart troubles. at least among Amer
leans, are certainly increasing, and
while this may be largely due to the
excitement and worry of American
business life, it is more often the re-
suit Of weak stomachs. of poor diges-
ton.
Real, organic heart disease is incur
able; but not one case in hundred of
heart trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by branches
of the same great nerves, the sympa-
thetic and pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart Is
affected by that form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half-digested food; there is a feel
ing Of oppression and heaviness in the
chest caused by pressure of the dis
tended stomach on the heart and lungs,
interfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
makes it thin and watery, which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
troubles is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation of
food.
This can best be done by the regu-
lar use after meals of some safe, pleas
ant and effective digestive preparation,
like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which
may be found at most drug stores, and
which contain valuable, harmless di-
gestive elements, in a pleasant, con-
venient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular.
persistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at meal time will cure any
form of stomach trouble, except cancer
of stomach.
F'ull-sized packages of the tablets
sold by druggists at 50 cents.

There seems to be misconceptlon
as to the state Of affairs, but it is very
simple The money received for dues
from Stockholders is intended to be
loaned out and bring in interest. 1t is
loaned out on real estate, but real es-
tate has deprecated greatly wlthln the
past two or three years, and instead OF
payments. being kept up, considerable
has been thrown on our hands. The
last report shows that we have about
S66. 600 of such real estate, which has
deprecated in value since the loans
were made on it. This has deprecated
the value of the stock, and 1t will be
necessary to make about a 10 per cent
discount on the assets in order to meet
the losses on real estate.
'Then. again, we have borrowed
money from the banks for our stock
holders, and the banks have called on
| us to pay it back, it having been hard
times. We took the money and pa1d
the banks off, and this took consider

SUBSTANTIAL WORK.
North Mankato Preparing Against
Future High Water.

Belgrade has appropriated $3.50 for
the improvement of North Mankato
streets, and no signs of the recent
high water are left. Belgrade avenue
is being raised and graded perfectly
horizontal from the end of the bridge
to Strickland's store, so that in case
of future high water there will be
a sheet Of water of the same depth
crossing the road for long
distance, rather than deep current
in one place to wash out deeper. The
filling at this point has been awarded
to T. r. COughlan for $3.50, and he is
placing 1900 cubic yards of riprap on
the road. This will make a solid
roadbed that cannot be washed out.
There will no culvert, the old one be-
ing filled up. The idea is to confine
the current to the river bed if posi-
BILE, and if not, to prevent any more
damage than possible being done.

our sufferings arise from stomach

many are starving, wasting to mere

them no good, they have devoted

| ed against taxation, without repreSen-
tatiOn, doubtless all men were not edu-
Gated, but all will agree that they
cast as sensible ballots as though they
had been. Some educated men find it
difficult to give the unlearned a place
in their esteem. The ends for which
nation exists are not for the mono
poly Of cultivated intelligence. A
man should not be punished for being
unfortunately ignorant. He has COM
mitted no crime for which ne should
be diSfranchised. If DISTINGUISHED, it
would establish a policy that would
lead to crime, because we could ex-
pect nothing from men who have been
ignored than that they should desire
to be the avengers of the wrong done
them. He admitted that men may
misjudge what is politically wise, but
held that those who are educated are
often as bad as those who are litter
ate. He believed that the danger did
not lie SO much in the ignorant, as IN
the educated who would use them for
evil ends. He denied that the ignor-
ant were more subject to prejudice,
passion and culpidity than the
educated. If there is danger in
universal suffrage, it is from the
evils of the caucus and cut and
dried conventions and venal legisla-
tiOn rather than from the illiterate,
and these evils are controlled by the
educated. He further denied that
the college or district school graduate
was superior morally to the uneducat-
ed. Education, he said, was a cri-
terrain to political capacity. A man
does not have to be educated to know
who or what he wants to vote for.
What a voter wants Emost is practical
common sense. He did not believe
the mere fact that a man can read
and write, especially qualified him
for citizen over one who could not.
The anarchists could read but they
read in the wrong direction. He de-
MED any mans right to assert that
the upper and middle class is better
than the lower class or populace. The
so-called upper class is not always
right in it's views.
The discussion was entered into by
nearly all Of the members of the club
present, and was most spirited one.
The members were about equally
divided, but those favoring universal
suffrage seemed to have the best of it.
They put forth that the .educa-
tional test simply meant the ability
to read and write, and that many who
could do that were in no way super
ior, nor did they have better idea of
the questions of government to be de-
cided than many who could neither
read or write. This was combatted |
on the ground that if man could |
read he would naturally make more
progress and greater inquiry into the
question at issue, and that the il
literate deprived of his vote would Sc
cure the rudimeDts of an education |
so he could exercise the right Of fran
chise.
The last meeting of the club year
will be held on Tuesday evening May !
18th, when election of officers for
next year will occur. That has also
