said:
II believe the outlook for railroad earn
ings during the first quarter Of 1904 are
very promising. There has been little
business depression in the middle west or
northwest. and the business outlook is
decidedly attractive. On all sides new
towns are springing up. bringing with
them the usual Accomplishments of manu-
features of every description and thus
helping 10 increase the freight traffic of
the railroads.

Stricken With Heart Disease

by 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 Affecting 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 initiates and weakens
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, sournees, emission of
gases, collie, loss of energy, drowsines. narrowing
dreams. bitter taste in the mouth, offensive
breath, sick headache giddiness, disturbed sleep,
salow countenance, heartburn, irregularity of
appetite, etc.
Many suffering from dyspepsia make the
grave mistake of assuming that they need cathar-
tics to force the liver to throw off the load and
thereby frequently cause the grayer evil of dis
