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 afeeling 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 palpitation and short
breath
Poor digestion also poisons the blood, making
it thin and watery, which irritates and weakeIis
the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart trouble
is to improve the digestion and to insure the
prompt assimilation of food.
The slightest arrangement of the stomach
impairs digestion and nutrition. Some of the
symptoms Of indigestion are fullness in the
region of the stomach, sourness, emission of
gases, collie loss of energy, drowsiness narrowing
dreams, bitter taste in the mouth, offensive
breath, sick headache, giddiness, disturbed sleep
sallow countenance, heartburn, irregularity of

That the visit of the former grand

thing to do with his Punishment. be-
cause the golden cup of poison was

province whom he disliked, is denied at
the Persian legation here.
The whole story to the effect that the
Shah of Persia is accustomed TO send
the golden cup to those officials whom
he wants to Danish from the world, is
denied as an Arabian Nights I" fairy

Stricken With Heart Disease

Pick up almost any newspaperand you will find
an account of some person being stricken with
heart disease. Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans, is on the increase. No doubt this is
due in part to the worry, excitement and strenu-
osity of modern American business life, and yet
how many, many times it is the result of weak
stomachs, Of poor digestion.
While real organic heart trouble is ineurable,
it is comforting to know that rot more than one
case in every hundred is organic. The re-
mainder are functional, being due to a sympa-
thetic disturbance, produced through the nervous
system, caused by great muscular prostrstion,
improper nutrition, in short, dyspepsia.
This functional disturbance of the hearts
action is manifested by palpitstion, irregularity
of beats, intermisson, rolling or tumbling move
ment and a feeling as if the heart were in the
throat. These symptoms often give rise to great
apprehension, anxiety, fear and depression Of
mind But since the cause of the trouble is
indigestion, it readily yields to Stua-t's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, the great panacea for all stomach
disorders and sympathetic ailments. The close
relation between heart trouble and poor diges-
ton is due to the fact that the heart, the great
force pump of the system, to which all of the
veins and arteries of the body may be directly or
indirectly traced, and the stomach are controlled

FORCE FOR HOME DEFENSE
Governments Permission Result of
Splendid Service of Irish Regiments
in South Africa.

LONDON. Dec. 17-Political condi-
tons and religious feuds have hitherto
induced the British government not to
allow the extension to Ireland of the
volunteer system which has for many
years been established In England and
Scotland.
The matter has been often agitated in
the press and in parliament, but al
though the militia has been enrolled for
a long time, and, like the Irish regulars.
proved among the bravest and most val
liable of Great Britain's troops. success
sive governments at London would not
sanction a home defense force for Ire
land.
Part of Army Reform.
The papers this morning state that the
introduction of the system to Ireland
has been decided upon. Twenty-six bat
tslions will be raised in various parts Of
the country. Their formation will be
provided for in the forthcoming program
Of army reform prepared 10y Mr.. Arnold
Forster, secretary of state for war.
Reward of Services.
The last volunteer force in ireland was
raised by the great landowners more
than hundred years ago, when there
were fears of a French invasion. The
British government did not support the
movement. and the Viceroy of ireland
was greatly dismayed, although all the
volunteers were Protestants.
The present sanction can be traced to
the splendid services of the Irish regi-
n,ents in South Africa and the improved
political relations.
