HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease Of Heart Trcnble.
DO Not be Alarmed, But Look for the
Cause,

Cause.
Heart troublss, at least among the
Americans, are certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the
excitement and worry of American
business life, 1t is more often the result
Of weak stomachs, of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable; but
not one case in q hundred OF heart trou-
bic is organic,
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by the same
great nerves, the Sympathetic and
Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is
effected by the form Of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation from
half digested food; There Is q feeling OF
oppression aud heaviness In the chest
caused by pressure OF the distended
stomach on the heart and lungs, inter.
fering with their acti n; hence arises
palpitsti1n and short breath.
Poor digesti IN also poisons the blood /,
making it thin and watery, which irri-
tstes and wes kens 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
Stusrt's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores and which
contain valuable, harmless digestive
elements in a pleasant, convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular per
. n -. a IL.
at meal time will cure any form of
stomach trouble except cancer OF the
stomach.
Full sized package of these tablets
sod by druggists at 80 cents. Little
book on stomach troubles mailed free.

| PHILIPPINE EXPERT.
HOW COMMISSIONER WORCESTER
CAME BY HIS KNOWLEDGE.

The Ann Aroor Professor Spent Many
Months Hunting In the Islands m 4
| Studying the Natives--It Was Dam
Eerous Work Mt Times.
If ever the right man was put in the
right place It was when Professor Dean
G. Worcester Of the University Of Mich
igan was made member of the Philip
pines commission Professor Worcester
is now on his way TO Manila with his
fellow commissioners. He is to act as
geographical and chronological expert
for the body.
It may be surprising that compare
lively young Ann Arbor professor should
know so much about these islands Of
ours on the other side Of the world.
This is how it happened: In 1887, when
Mr.. Worcester was a college student,
he accompanied DR.. ]. Be sSteere to the
islands and spent II months there.
Three years later he undertook second
expedition, accompanied by DR.. Bourns.
His object was to secure a collection Of
birds and mammals; but, besides ac-
complishing this, he studied the social
and political conditions OF the natives.
He spent many months traversing the
group, and visited 10 Of the larger is-
lands
That these investigations were not
conducted without much personal dan
ger and in some cases at the constant
risk Of his life is evident from the arti-
cles which Professor Worcester has
written since his return His knowledge
Of the Moro pirates, who inhabit the
island of Sulu and part of the great is
land of Mindanao, was gained in par
ticularly hazardous manner As Uncle
Sam will have to deal with these people
sooner or later, this information is not
only interesting but valuable.
The Moros originally came from Bor
neo. They first settled in Sulu, and
gradually overran other islands Three
centuries ago they had difference with
the Spaniards, and then began an inter-

IN THE TWILIGHT OF LOVE.

II years ago you told me, dear,
That on a day our dreams would fade
To these half hearted fancies drear,
should have grieved and felt dismay cd
But yet so softly has the rain

Each glowing passion that the pain
Was smotherod ere all light had gone.

To brave times destined tragedies
Let us steal down ere night comes by.

FEDERAL OWNERSHIP
Senator Pettigrew's Bill Providing
for Government Railways.
LABOR NOT UNITED ON ANY OPINION
Testimony Given to the Industrial
Commission.
WELL-CON SIDERED VIEW S

1t is said that the bill introduced in the
Senate during the present session by Mr..
PettigreW of South Dakota, providing for
the government ownership of railroads, Will
cause a flood of petitions from labor or
CARNATIONS to be sent to Congress within
a short time praying that Congress give
serious consideration to this proposition.
The discussion of the advisability of the
government ownership of railroads Is one
that does not appeal to the conservative
element in the Senate as of consequence at
this time, because it is recognized that this
subject is one that should be considered by
the people al large for a long time before
it reaches sufficient Importance in the pub
lie eye to call for legislation. The govern
mont ownership of railroads has never been
Endorsed in the platform of any political
party with the exception of the platform of
the populist party Many labor organiza-
lions have advocated such ownership for
many years, and the public ownership of
what are designated as public utilities has
long been one of the cardinal principles of
the Knights of Labor. From time to time
these organ cations have petitioned Congress
favorng government ownership of raI.roa1s
and for long time some pan for carrying
out that project has been before the ma
tional legislature in the form of a bill.
Details Worked Out.
The bill introduced by Mr.. Pettigrew was
evidently framed after a great deal of la
Dor and in siXty-one pages of printed mat
ter it provides for a thousand details which
will be met in the proposed eventual trans
fer of all the railroads of the United States
to a single department of the government
and for their management after that trans
fer is accomplished. 1t provides for the for
chile sale of interstate roads, If they are
not offered voluntarily. and also a means
by which state roads may be absorbed by
the great system. 1t proposes a system
which it is thought will do away with all
future discrimination in railroad rates, for
shorter hours for employees, for indemnity
to them in case they are injured, and for
the families in case of their death. 1t
proposes to utilize the interstate commerce
commission 10 carry out the plan for the
acquisition of the railroads, and stipulates
that a sinking fund be established in order
that the government, at the end of eighty
years, shall acquire these roads free of
debt.
The details of such a plan are of less
importance at this time than the main
proposition. If the Senate committee on in
terState commerce, to which this bill has
been referred, should be induced to hold
hearings on this proposition during the
present Congress, 1t will probably have re-
peated before 1t much Of the testimony that
has been given during the past six months
before the industrial commission which
commission is fully authorized to recon-
mend the legislation proposed by Mr. Petit
crews bill if 1t so desires.
Considered by the Commission.

From the Chicago Tribune.
A year has passed since the reins of gov
eminent in China were wrested from the
weak hands of Kwang-Hsu by his aunt and
adopted mother, Tfs-An. This momentous
event meant at the same time the end of
reforms which have been inaugurated by
the youthful emperor, or rather by Ii
Hung Chang. the viceroy, who has not in
aptly been termed the Chinese Bismarck.
If the relation of China to foreign powers
were still as loose they were only forty
years ago. the coup d'etat undoubtedly
would have ended with the assassination of

least as far as 1t finds expression in inter-
national politics. 1t probably was only
this fear of an Intervention or even of a
protest by the powers having spheres of
interest in China that prevented the rul-

means which otherwise are. a matter of
course, the finale of palace revolutions in
oriental countries.
