Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans. is certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the
excitement and worry Of American
business life, it is more often the re-
suit Of weak stomachs. Of poor diges-
tion.
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 ~ the
same great nerves, the Sympathetic
and Pneumogastric
In another way, also. the heart is
affected by the form Of poor digestion.
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digested food. There is a
feeling Of oppression and heaviness in
the chest caused by pressure Of the
dlstended stomach on the heart and
lungs, interfering with their action,
hence arises palpitation and short
breath.

Selections FROM Roman History

The following selections from
the history Of Rome, by Euro
Plus, are literal tran>lations by
c. MaeLean who has kindly
consented to contribute a series
Of these articles. This one is
taken from chapter I. and has TO
dc with the birth and parentage
of Romulus; founding of the
city, and its growth; death and
deifcatien of its founder:
The Roman Empire bad its
beginning with Romulus, who
was the sen of Rhea Silvia, a
Vestal Virgin, and (as was sup
posed) Of Mars. He was the
twia bfother of Remus.
When eighteen years Of age,
while committing rebberies
among the shepherds, he planted
a small city ca the Paletine
Hill, on tie nth Gay before the
Kalends Of May-April 21st-
ia the 3rd year Of the 9th Olym-
piad.
When the city. which he cali
ed after his own name, was
buils, he did for the most part as
tellsws: He admitted a large
number of his nsighbors into tho
city, aad selected a hundred
(mea), whom he called senators,
on account of their age, from the
elders, by whose advice he should
de everything.
Then, because he and BIS peo-
pie did not have wives, he in
vited the tribes near the City OF
Rome to see the games. They
having accepted, he caused their
maidens to be seized and carried
away. War having been exeit-
cd, On account Of the wrong een-
mitted by the carrying off Of
the maidens, he ceaquered the
Inhabitants of caenina, the In.
habitants of Antemnae, the
Crustirninii, the Sabiui, the Fl.
donates, and the inhabitants oi
Veil. All these towns surround.
ed the city.
Asd since, when a disturbance
suddenly arose, he had not ap-
peared, he was believed to have
passed over to the Gods, and was
consecrecrated, i. e., deified, in
the 37th year of his kinsship.
Then the senators ruled at Rene
five days each, ana by these rul
ings one year was completed.
