HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid Increase q
Heart Trouble.

Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans, is certainly increasing a,o
while this may be largely due " 'ie
excitement and worry of American
business life, it is more often the result
Of weak stomachs. Of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is lncurapie'
but not one case in hundred OF near
trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion IS because
both organs are controlled by IN
same great nerves, the sympathetic
ana the Pneumogastric.
In another way also the heart Is al
fected by the form Of poor digestion
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digcsted food. There Is Il
feeling of oppression and heaVlnesS IN
the chest caused by pressure OF the
distcnded stomach on the heart ana
lungs. interfering with their acton;
hence arises palpitation and short
breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making it thin ana watcry, when nm
tatcs and Weakcns the heart
The most sensible treatment Tor
heart trouble is to improve the diges-
ton ard to insure the prompt assimila-
tiun Of food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals Of some safe pleasant ana
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
bc found At drug stores, and which
contain valuable. harmless digestive
elements in a pleasant, convenient
form.
