Don't
Neglect 1t

It is a serious mistake
to neglect a weak heart. It
is such a short step to
chronic heart disease.
When you notice irregu-
tarity Of action, occasion
ing short breath, palpita-
tion, futtering, pain in
chest or difficulty in lying
on left side, your heart
needs help-a strengthen
ing tonic. There is no bet
ter remedy than DR.. Miles,
Heart Cure. It's strength
ening influence is felt al
most at once.
sT have used 10 bottles of Dr.. Miles
Heart Cure and can truthfully say it
has done me more good than anything
l have ever used, and | have. tried
nearly everything tnat L know or. The
doctor who attended me asked me
what I was taking and I told him
DR. Miles Heart Cure, he said it was
not going to do me any good but it
did. I have not taken any for year
now, and while there is occasionally a
slight symptom of the old trouble, it
is not enough fer me to continue the
use of the medicine. If l should get
worse I would know what to do. Take
DR.. Miles Heart Cure as I did before.
[ consider myself practically cured Of
my heart trouble
s. H. DUNNAM, Livingston, Texas.
DR.. Miles Heart Cure is sold by
your druggist, who will guarantee that
the first bottle will benefit. If it fails
ne will refund your money.

GROWING DATES IN TEXAS.
Successful Experiments With Artificial
PoIlination of Palm Trees.

Successful Experiments With Artificial
PoIlnation of Palm Trees.
The first perfect dates ever grown
in Texas are now being harvested from
two trees at the home Of Fred Wool
fey in Laredo, says special dispatch
to the New York Times. The date
palm trees have grown and thrived
throughout the lower Rio Grande re-
gion. for more than a half century, and
on the Mexican side of the river the
tree has fourished for fully a century
During all these years it has been un-
productive. The trees were never pol
linated Without artificial pollination
the date flower is incapable of produc-
ing perfect fruit.
Harvey G. Stiles, a noted horticul-
turist, became interested in the date
palm trees of the Laredo section two
years ago. He found that, while they
grew to perfection and were to all ap-
pearances capable of bearing great
quantities of fruit, they were either
entirely barren Or the fruit which they
grew was immature and worthless.
He began experimenting with artificial
pollination, and his success was mar
velous. He pollinated two trees last
year, one at Corpus Christi and the
other at Brownsville. These first ex-
periments proved to him that the
many trees which are already growing
throughout the Laredo section of the
state could be made a source of wealth
IL the artificial method Of fruition was
carried out.
Mr.. Woolfey became interested in
the pollination experiments, and last
spring he took great care in pollinat-
ing the two trees which grow in his
yard at Laredo. He succeeded in per
fecting nearly every cluster of dates,
and each tree will produce nearly 40C
pounds of the fruit The first of the
fruit is now being gathered.
II predict that the date will become
staple and famous product Of semi
tropic Texas" said Mr.. Stiles. ''The
best, most ideal date section is that
lying along the river southwark from
Laredo and coastward, but not toe
near the coast, for, while the date tree
thrives in all it's tropic beauty and
luxuriousness near the coast and pro.
duces abundant fruit of good flavor
dry, free from humidity is the only
date fruit valuable for commercial
USES"

Who Will Weigh the Coal?

Exchange: In certain town are
two brothers who are engaged in the
retail coal business. An evangelist
converted the elder brother of the
firm.
Four weeks after his conversion the
brother who lately had "got religion
endeavored to persuade the other to
join the church. One day the elder
brother was making an effort and
asked:
Orchard, why can't you join the
the church, as did?"
'sIt's alright to be a member of the
church," replied Richard, "but if I
join who's going to weigh the coal?

London, Aug. 16.-The directors of

The Limit of Life.

The most eminent medical scientists
are unanimous in the conclusion that
the generally accepted limitation of
human life is many years below the
attainment possible with the advanced
knowledge of which the race is now
possessed. The critical period, that
determines its duration, seems to be
between so and so; the proper care of
the body during this decade cannot be
too strongly urged; carelessness then
being fatal to longevity. NATURES best
helper after 80 is Electric Bitters, the
scientific tonic medicine that revitali-
zes every organ of the body. Guaran-
