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. az least among the
Americans. are certainly increasing. and
while this may be largely due TO the ex.
cliemeni and worry OF American busi-
ness life, II Is more often the result OF
weak stomachs, OF poor digestion.
Real organic disease Is incurable: but
BILE is organic.
The close relation between heart trou-
bio and poor digestion is because both
organs are controlled by the same great
nerves. the Sympathetic and PReumo-
gastric.
In another way. also. the heart Is af-
I fected by the form OF poor digestion.
which causes gas and fermentation from
half dlgested food. There Is a feeling
Of oppression and heaviness In the Chest
caused by pressure OF the distended
stomach on the heart and lungs, inter-
fering with their action; hence arises
palpltRtlon and short breath.

making 1t thin and watery. which irrl-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation Of food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals OF some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation. like Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets. which may be
found at most drug stores and which
contain valuable harmless digestive ele-
ments in a pleasant, convenient form.
II is safe TO say that the regular. per-
sls,ent use OF StuarG's Dyspepsia Tab
lets at meal time will cure any form OF
stomach trouble except cancer Of the
stomach.

by druggists at 80 cents. Little book on
stomach troubles mailed free. Address
