How Rapid Life is Killing Our People.

The fact that 1875 persons died recently
in one week in New York City, from
heart disease, when the death rate the
corresponding week in 1904 was only Sc,
has given rise to the belief among ply
sicians that New York residents, and
American people generally, for that mat.
ter, are living too rapidly. The strain of
business and cares attendant on fierce
competition and the worry attendant on
anxiety to gain wealth are given as an
explanation by physicians OF the condl-
tions which exist to-day. =,
Doctors have established the fact that
the nerve forces which control the stom-

their exciting careers. Many young men

under 30 years of age died from this
malady. -. .. -.... !:
Women are also victims. This is az
tributed to the manner in which they
worry over social engagements, also to
over-work: Worry and excitement, to-
gether with many nerve shocks which
come to all in their daily life, OF hustle
and hustle, are the principal causes
which snap the heartstrings.
We Americans, both men and women,
are living too fast. we work too hard

be quickest repaired? Only by humor-
ing and assisting the stomach to act in a
more healthy manner. Thus will the
blood be enriched, the nerves invigorated
and the action of an enfeebled heart
Golden Medical Discovery contains just
the right ingredients to do this, as will
be seen from what eminent medical
authorities say of the different ingre-
dents composing it. To make the weak

Then besides Golden Seal, which, &C
cording to the best medical authorities,
stands at the head of all stomach and
heart tonics and invigorators, there is
Stone root (Collinsonia Canadensis). which
enters largely into the composition of
wGolden 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. NJ. D.,
