Inc TACT tTat I25 persons died
recently in one week in New
York city, from heart disease, when
the death rate the corresponding
week in 1904 was only So, has
given rise to the belief among
physicians that New York residents,
and American people generally, for
that matter, are living too rapidly.
The strain of business and cares at
tendant on fierce competition and the
worry attendant on anxiety to gain
wealth are given as an explanation
by physicians of the conditions which
exist today.
Doctors have established the fact
that the nerve forces which control
the stomach and the heart, are at
fected by the hurry of men in the
daily scramble to bolt their food, i'll
order to quickly resume their excit-
ing careers. Many young men now
succumb to heart disease, where so
years ago, a case was rare when a
person under 80 years of age died
from this malady
Women are also victims This is
| attributed to the manner in which
they worry over social engagements,
also to overwork. Worry and excite
ment, together with many nerve
shocks, which come to all in their
daily life, of hustle and hustle, are
the principal causes which snap the
heart-strings.
We Americans, both men and wo
men, are living too fast. We work
too hard and worry too much. How
can the strain be best contracted and
the damage done be quickest re-
paired? Only by humoring and as
sisting the stomach to act in more
healthy manner. Thus will the blood
be enriched, the nerves invigorated
and the action of an enfeebled heart
strengthened and regulated DIR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
contains just the right ingredients to
do this, as will be seen from what
eminent medical authorities say Of
the different ingredients composing
it To make the weakened stomach
strong that it may properly digest
the food and thus manufacture rich
red blood, Golden Seal, a prominent
ingredient of the Golden Medical
Discovery" is pre-eminently the ar
ticle needed The late Prot. John NJ.
Scudder, Md, of Cincinnati, author
of Specific Medication" says of it:
at stimulates the digestive pro-
cesses, and increases the assimilation
of food. By these means THE
BLOOD IS ENRICHED. = X
The consequent Improvement on the
nervous and glandular systems are
natural results" He further says:
I'm relation to its general effects
on the system, THERE IS NO
MEDICINE IN USE ABOUT
WHICH THERE IS SUCH GEN
ERAL UNANIMITY OF OPIN-
ION. 1t is UNIVERSALLY re-
garded as THE tonic useful in all
debilitated states"
THE UNITED STATES DIS

root: AS a local remedy Hydrastis

In its influence upon the nervous

Then besides Golden Seal, which,
according to the best medical au-
thorities, stands at the head of all
stomach and heart tonics and invig-
orators, there is Stone root Collin
sonia Canadensis), which enters
largely into the composition of
Golden Medical Discovery" and it
is an acknowledged stomach and
heart tonic-especially superior to
all other remedies in valvular and
other affections of the heart. The
late Prof. VIM. Paine, MD, of Phil
adelphia, says in his work on Con-
centrated Medicines:
Il, not long since, had a patient
who was so much oppressed with a
valvular disease of the heart that his
friends were obliged to carry him
upstairs. He, however, gradually re-
covered under the influence of Col
