HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease of Heart Trouble.

Heart trouble at least among the Amer
leans, is certainly increasing. and while
this may be largely due to the excitement
and worry of American business life it is
more often the result of weak st0machs,
of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable; but
not one case in a hundred Of heart trouble
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 the Pneumosastric.
Ii another way also the heart is affected
by the form Of poor digestion, which causes
gas and fermentation from half-digeste ted
food. There is feeling of oppression and
heaviness in the chest. caused by pressure
of the distended stomach on the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action, hence
arises paIpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood.
making il thin and watery. which irritates
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 drug stores. and which contain
valuable, harmless digestive elements in
a pleasant, convenient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular. per-
sistent use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
at meals will cure any form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
