Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine Of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when 1t was simple indiges-
ton. 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 the
heart. This interferes with the action Of

BIG PILE Of MONEY
BEING PUT INTO IMPROVEMENT
AND NEW BUILDINGS IN
PINE BLUFF.
New Ice Plant, Colored Masonic Tenn
Pile. Hardwood Plant and
Other Buildings.
LIST OF MORE IMPORTANT ONES.

The building movement has started
in earnest in Pine Bluff, and during
the course of the next few months
several hundred thousands of dollars
will be spent in the erection ef busi-
ness houses.
The work on the new Consumers Ice
plant is rapidly nearing compile
ten and the establishment of this
plant will cost about $4,000.
During the spring months the plant
Of the Arkansas and TeXs Consoli-
dated Ice and Coal company has been
thoroughly repaired at a considerable
expense.
The ground has been broken and the
work of erecting the new building for
the Gould-Galbraith Supply company,
at the corner of Fifth avenue and
Main streets, is being pushed rapidly.

corner of Fourth avenue and Ala

right here in Pine Bluff.
