Weak
Hearts

Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when 1t was simple indiges-
ton. 1t is 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 it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

trouble and in bad state as had heart trouble

cut in four or five places. 1t is fifteen
feet wide and filled with small parti-
cles of Qnagtzite and quartz showing
that it is a true fissure vein. Work is
being pushed on this vertical in both
directions from the main tunnel, and
the ore, which assays from SIS to $23,
is being stored in bins just at the en-
trance of the tunnel, ready for the mill.
This whole University group is COW
cred with flat shoots of ore from four
to forty feet in thickness, correspond
ing with the same mammoth shoots
Of the Dakota company adjoining.
Across the gulch from the Univer-
sity company is the property of the
old Ak-Sar-Ben company. This shows
q vast quantity of ore exposed in three
contacts, which carry the same values
of ore as the adjoining property.
According to Mr.. Blatchford, on the
University and Ak-Sar-Ben groups
there are something like 100000 tons
Of IS ore and 10000 tons of S. ore in
sight. Mr.. Blatchford estimates that
there are between 100000 and 100000
tons of S. and So ore which can be
milled. When this large amount is
worked out, following the usual rule
OF properties in that district, there
ought to be 100000 tons of ore in
sight
A short time ago there was con-
solidation Of five companies, they be-
ing the Ak-Sar-Ben, University, Iron
Duke, Bunker Hill and Monitor, the
properties consisting of over 400 acres
of patented ground and valuable
water right capable of furnishing water
for 1,000-ton mill. The plan of the
company is to erect a mill Immediate
ly at the entrance Of the main work
ing tunnel, the capacity to be 300 tons
per day The mill will be so located
that the ore from the different parts
of the large property can be TANNED
directly to it from the different shoots
and veins, which will save the expense
of freight, usually paid, to the mills in
Deadwood. The contract will be let
for the mill on the 18th of this month
at the annual meeting of the company
and it is expected that it will be in
