HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING RAPID IN
CREASE 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 bus
mess life. it is more often the result
Of weak stomachs, OF poor digestion.
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 af.
fected by that form Of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half-digested food; there is a
feeling of oppression and heaviness in
the chest caused by pressure of the
distended 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 trouble is to improve the diges-
ton and to insure the prompt assim-
ilation Of food.
This can best be done by the regular
use after meals, of some safe, pleasant
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 the stomach.
Full-sized package of the tablets sold
by druggists at so cents.
Little book on stomach troubles
mailed free. Address Stuart Co., Mar
