BAD DIGESTION, FAD HEART.

Poor digestion often causes irregularity
of the hearts action. This irregularity
may lie mistaken for real, organic heart
disease. The symptoms are much the same.
There is however vast difference between
the two: organic heart disease is often in
durable: apparent heart disease is durable
if good digestion be restored.
a case in point is quoted from the Ne'1
Era, of Greensburg, Ind. Mrs. Ellen Col
som, Viewpoint. Ind, woman forty three
years old. had suffered for four years with
distressing stomach trouble. The gases
generated by the indigestion pressed on the
heart, and caused an irregularity of its
ton. She had much pain in her stomach
and heart and was subject to frequent and
severe choking spells which were most
severe at night. Doctors were tried in

DEVELOPMENT or orr RESOURCES

~ is gratifying to come across an Item
IN these times like that In yesterdays
Post In which we were told that companv
had been organized to develop the oil
fields near Conroe. in this State, and that
work would begin in few days Such
movement Ia another demonstration that
enterprising men are not overlooking the
promise and possibilities OF developing tina
natural resources OF this great State.
The oil fields OF Texas are attracting
Widespread attention. The fields are not
only extensive, but remarkably rich. and
capital and energy will soon add another
profitable industry OF Immense proportions

oil fields that will compare favorably with
those anywhere in the world. Literally
there are millions" In their DEVELOPMENT
and 1t is gratifying TO find enterprise tnk-
Ing hold OF them. Great things have been
accomplished already at Corslcann and at
Sour Lake and yet the beginning Of de-
velopment has only been witnessed.
But the oil field is only one OF our many
promising resources that are in the mere
infancy OF their development. Tho state
Is rich in minerals and the iron aud coal
heids oifer much to the investor. The va
riefy OF soils. OF climate, OF physical con-
formations OF the surface. coupled with the
imperial extent Of our territory, offer to
the prospector Il peculiarly attractive sec
ton for investigation and experiment.
IL has taken long time to outlivc our
early reputation as simply n grazing plain,
or a cotton producing State, but gradually
tho world is learning OF our multiplicity OF
advantages and varied resources. The State
press has been constant in its devotion
to the States interests and unremitting In

have been seconding the efforts of the
press lately and the fruits are apparent.

not have TO go begging when the general
