HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid
Increase Of Heart Troubles.
DO Not BE Alarmed, But Look for the
Cause.

do Not BE Alarmed, But Look for the
Cause.
Heart troubles. at least among
Americans, are certainly increasing,
and while this may be largely due to
the excitement and worry OF Ameri-
can business life. IL Is more often the
result Of weak stomachs,of poor dlges-
tion.
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 ia because
both organs are controlled by
branches of the same great nerves,
the Sympathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is
affected by the form of poor indi-
RestioH, which causes gas and
fermentation from half degested food;
there Is feeling OF oppression and
heaviness 10 the chest caused by
pressure OF the dlstended stomach on
the heart and lungs, interfering with
their actions: hence arises palpitatlOn
and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the
blood, makes IL thin aud watery,
which irritates and weakens the
heart.
The most sensible treatment for
heart trouble is to improve the dl &.
gestlon and to Insure the prompt as.
slmilatiUn OF food.
This can best be done by the reg
ular use after meals, OF some safe,
pleasant and effective digestive prep
aration, like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which may be found at most
drug stores and which contain val
liable, harmless digestive elements In
a pleasant, convenient form.
1t is safe TO say that the regular,
persistent use OF. Sauart's Dyspepsln
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 60 cents.

penver's Mayor Wants Cheap Water.
Engineer Hunter has submitted a
report 10 Mayor McMurray, OF Denver
that a water plant, larger aud better
than that Of the Union Water Com
uany, can be built for $4,000 and
the mayor recommends the issuance
OF city bonds To the amount OF 81, ,OOO,-
600 for that purpose, The Denver
Union Water Company some months
ago offered his plant To The city for
", 100000. Engineer Hunter says Il
is worth less than si,OOO,OOO. A very
strong movement 10 favor OF munich.
pal ownership OF water works has been
led by Mem AIRY for the past two or
three years.

THE PHILIPPINE INDEMNITY.

The proposition OF the United
States, with regard TO the Philippines,
20 far AZ the press dispatches from
Paris outline IL, is 10 take the entire
group OF islands and TO assume such
part OF the debt as has been con-
tracted for public improvements In
the islands. In the first place there
are no public improyeme ats In .the
Philippine islands, aud no money has
ever been borrowed for that purpose.
Secondly, the si0,OOO,OO0, so far as
known, has been expended since 1895
In an attempt 70 suppress the insur-
rectlOn, aud 100000 OF that amount
was paid as brlbe 20 Agulnaldo and
his associates TO quit lighting aud
leave the country. More than half
that money is now In the Hong Kong
and Shanghai banks, at Hong Kong,
awaiting distribution among the In-
surgents.
Spaln's course will probably be TO
decline the proposition, TO demand u
large Indemnity 10 enter upon a
prolonged diplomatic argument,
and TO deadlock the peace commission.
II is hard TO see what they can gain
by deadlock. II they leave Paris
and abandon the negotiations all the
United States has 10 do is TO 40
ahead and organize a colonial gov.
srnment Ia the Philippines, Just as
South Americans did in several OF
the republics. spain refused TO make
treaties with them, aud IL was
twenty years before she formally rec
ognized their independence.

The arguments Of the physicians
carom heavily upon those beverages
OF which alcohol Is concomitant.
Even as menstruum for exhausting
drugs, alcohol has largely been
superseded by Noetic acid in various
strengths, IL has been discovered by
experiments with different memstrua
that 10 per cent solution OF acetlc
acid is almost universal IN It's dis
solving and exhaustlng powers. How
ever, the use of alcohol as a narcotic
may be sustained as proper practice,
DR. Wlckes Washburn, at the annual
meeting Of the New York State Med
cal Association In October, cited
forty-six cases wherein at the critical
stage he used alcohol and morphine
In some cases to the extent of a
quarter OF grain every forty five
minutes met with n1ne OF the
secondary effects, nor any tendency
TO narcotism. Nor was there any
tendency TO continue the use OF
alcohol or morphine after recovery.
IL would be just as we'll though to
Introduce carbonate OF ammonium, or
caffeine or some similar stimulant
with patients who are non-users Of
alcohic beverages. There Is an ad.
mitted danger Of inUoculatlng such
persons with the disease OF alcoholism.

ABOUT CENTENARIANS.
Some Queer Stories Related of Ex-
tremeIy Old People I'm Eng
land Long Ago.

Not all of the centenarians were
paragons of all the virtues. Thomas
Wilmington, for example, who lived
to be 104, was u habitual drunkard,
drinking only London gin, of which he
consumed from a pint to pint and
half daily. Philip Larooue went to
bed drank at least two nights in the
week until he was 100. At 92 he cut
four new teeth. John de la Sonnet,
130 years old, was an inveterate
smoker. Several famous old people
were extremely addicted to matri
mony. Owen Duffy who lived to be
122, married his third wife at 116, 'by
whom he had a son and a daughter"
Francis Hongo, a Venetian, was five
times married, and was the father of
40 children. At the age of 100 his
white hair fell out and a new crop
of the original color came in. At the
age of 112 he had two new teeth.
Margaret Krasiowna, a Pole, married
her third husband at 94 "She bore
to him two sons and a daughter, os
proved by the parish register" Mar
garet McDowal. 106 years old, married
and survived 13 husbands.
Among the recorded centenarians
are two dwarfs-Mary Jones, 100
years, who was two feet eight inches
in height and terribly deformed and
Eispeth Watson, lis years old, who
was two feet nine inches in height.
Among the most agile were Mrs. Bar
rett, who, at the age of lie, climbed
ladder to repair the roof of her cot
tage, and Elizabeth Alexander, who
was particular about her dress at 108,
and was used to q daily walk of two
miles. Several had peculiar habits.
Mrs. Lewson, 1T years old, never
washed her face for fear of taking
cold, but creased it with hogs lard
John Hussey, JIG years, drank only
balm tea as a beverage. John Wilson,
the same age, supped always off roast
ed turnips. Judith Banister, 100, lived
entirely on biscuit, bread and apples
during the last 60 years of her life.
mere, both of whom lived to a ripe
age, thought the wearing of o tight
belt habitually about the waist had
much to do with their excellent health.
Macklin, the centenarian actor, aban-
doned regular hours of eating in the
last 67 years of his life, taking food
when he was hungry. Two interesting
married couples are reported. Mr.
and Mrs. Cotterell, aged respectively
12O and 115 years, were married 98
years and "never had quarrel" They

John Rovin, Hungarian, and his wife,
