Weak
Hearts,

Are due to indigestion. N~inety-nine Of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when 1t was simple indiges-
ton. II is a scientific fact that all cases of
heart disease, not organic. are not only
traceable to. but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting 1t up against tho
heart. This interferes with the action of
the heart, and In tho course OF time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

trouble and was in q bad state as ! had heart trouble

Something must be done or the
State must suffer in the eyes Of the
world from this divorce business.
The securing of divorce in North
Carolina has been made too easy for
the good Of the State and society.
AS The News and Observer says
the press and the pulpit must unite
in fighting this evil. They should
wage such a warfare on it that the
next Legislature viii be forced to
repeal the present divorce law.
