The legis lature Of 1897 appropriated
the "sum Of $3.50 for the years 1897
and 1sos for Office expenses Of the ad-
iutant general.
For the eight months of Gen. Rosen
baum's administration OF the adjutant
generals office under Governor Barnes
warrants were issued 20 him for the
expenses of the military department
in excess of twenty three hundred
dollars. This was nearly double Of
what the same department cost under
the Renfrow administration for per.
iod of three years.
After il was determined TO organize
military force under Renfrow's ad-
ministration, there being but one
small company in the territory at that
time, the work Of organizing the first
regiment begun and pushed TO com
pletion. This regiment one OF the
FIRST ia the west, was organized, armed
and equipped, aud for the three years
be fore and after It was organized the
whole cost Of the military department
for three years was less than $500.
There was no military code or mill

commenced on the very ground floor,
and the entire cost under the Renfrow
administration for three years was as

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING RAPID III.
GREASE OF HEART TROUBLES
DO Not be Alarmed. hut Look For the
Cause

DO Not be Alarmed, But Look For the
Heart troubles,a at least among Amer
leans, are certainly increasing, and
while this may be largely due TO the
excitement and worry Of American
business life, IL is more often the result
of poor digestion,
Real, organic heart disease is incur
able; but not one case in hundred OF
heart trouble is incurable.
The ose relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by branch
es OF the same great nerves, the Sym
pathetic and Pneumogastic,
In another way, also, the heart is
bftec ed by that form of poor diges.
ton, which causes gas and fermenta-
ton Of half digested food. There is a
feeling Of oppression and heaviness in
he 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
MAX it thin and watery, which irri-
tates and wvakens the heart.
The most senSlble treatment Tor
heart trouble is to improve the diges-
tion and TO insure the prompt assimu-
lation Of food
This can best be done by the regular
use after mea of some safe, pleasant
and efficient digestive preparation,
like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which
may be found at most drug stores, and
which contain valuable, harmless di-
gestive elements in pleasant and
convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular
persistent use OF Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at meal times will cure any
form OF stomach trouble except can.
