How Rapid Life is Killing Our People.
NUMBER FROM HEART

The fact that 125 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
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 condi-
tions which exist to-day.
Doctors have esta blished the fact that
the nerve forces which control the stom-
ach and the heart, are affected by the
hurry Of men in the daily scramble to
bolt their food, in order to quickly resume
now succumb to heart disease, where so
years ago, a case was rare when person
under 80 years OF age died from this
malady.
Women are. also victims. This is at
tributed to the manner in which they
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
and worry too much. How can the strain
be best contracted and the damage done
be quickest repaired? Only by humor-
ing and assisting the stomach to act in a
blood be enriched, the nerves invigorated
and the action of an enfeebled heart
strengthened and regulated. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery contains just
the right ingredients to do this, as will
authorities say of the different ingre-
dents composing it. To make the weak
ened stomach strong that it may prop
erly digest the food and thus manu-
facture rich, red blood. Golden Seal,

article needed. The late Prof. John NJ.

Then besides Golden Seal, which, ac-
cording to the best medical authorities,
stands at the head of all stomach and
heart tonics and invigorators, there is
Stone root (Collinsonia Canadensisl, which
enters largely into the composition of
"Golden Medical Discovery" and IL is an

In valyular and other affections of the
heart. The late Prof. VIM. Paine, NJ. D.,
of Phila., says in his work on Concen-
trated Medicines:

was so much oppressed with valvular
disease Of the heart that his friends were
