HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid
Increase Of Heart Troubles.
DO NOT BE ALARMED, BUT LOOK FOR
THE CAUSE.

Heart troubles, at least amo0g the
Americans, are certainty increasing
and while this may be largely due to
the excitement and worry Of Ameri-
can business life, it is more often the
result Of weak stomachs, of poor d.
gestion.
Real organic disease is incurabIe;
but not one case in hundred Of heart
trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble ana poor gestion is because
both organs are controlled BY the same
great nerves, the Sympathetic and
Pnenmogastric.
10 another way, also the heart Is
efFeoted b. the form Of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digestsd food. There Is a
feeling Of oppression aud heavIness in
the chest caused by pressure oflhe
distended stomach on the heart and
lungs, inters action !;
fseA %
breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the
blood, making i thin and watery,
which irri,ates ana weaksns the
heart.
The most sensible treMment for
heart trouble is to improve the diges-
tionand to insure the prompt assimi-
lation of food.
This can be done BY the regular use
after meals Of some safe. pleasant and
effective digestive preparation llks
s'uarps Dyspepsia Tablets which
may be found at most drug stores and
which contain valuable, harmless di-
sestiye elements ina pleasant, con-
veuient form.
