HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGA N TIE RAP!D
INCREASE OF HE.. / TROUBLES
Do Not Ee Alarmed But Look For
The Cause.

Heart troubles, ut loast among tho
Americans, arc certainly increasing aud
while This may be largely due to the ex-
element and worry Of American business
life, it is more often the result Of weak
stomachs, or poor digestion.
Real organic disease Ia inOurabla, but not
on. case in u hundred OF heart trouble is
orrauic
The close relation between heart trouble
are controlled by the same great nerves,
tho Sympathetic and Pneumogsstrc.
In anoher way, also the heart Is eirsct-
Cd by THO form of poor digestion, which
causes ga' and fermentation from half
digested food There is II foelng OF op-
preston and heuviness in tho chest caused
by pressure Of distenaed stomach on tho
heart and lungs. interfering with their
action; hence arises palpitaion and short
breath.
Poor digestion also pospns tho blood,
making thin and watery, which irritates
and waakeus the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion aDd to
iusnre the prompt assimilation Of food.
This can he done by the regular uso af-
ter meals of some safe, pleasant and eff
foctivo digestive preparation, like Stuarts
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 persist
ent use OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
meal time win cure any form Of stomach
t!oube except cancer OF the stomach.
Full size package OF these tablets sold by
druggists at so cents. Little book on stom-
ach troubles mailed free. Address l.. A.
