Heart

The action of the heart de-
pends upon the heart nerves
and muscles. When from any
cause they become weak or ex-
hausted, and fail to furnish
sufficient power, the heart hut-
ters, palpitates, skips beats;
and in its effort to keep up. its
work, causes pain and distress,
such as smothering spells,
short breath, fainting, pain
around heart, arm and shoul-
ders. The circulation is i'm
peded, and the entire system
suffers from lack of nourish-
ment.
DR.. Miles Heart Cure makes
a heart strong and vigorous by

muscles.

MANY WILL COME
To CALIFORNIA

San Francisco and California condi-
tons have been put well before the
people OF the East during the last
week. and the reports OF what is going
on and what the state did last year
IN the way OF industrial production
have gone far toward convincing many
Fasteners that this IS q good place
TO live In. The manager OF the East
ern Bureau OF the California Promo
tion Committee delivered four lectures
during the week TO crowded houses
in New York and cities in the imme-
date vicinity. These lectures were
all return" lectures, being the second
given at the same places. The first
lectures were so well received that
special Invitations were sent TO the
committee TO have them repeated. with
the result that much larger audiences
assembled 20 hear them.
The Eastern bureau reports that
these lectures are wonderful inquiry
bringers and after each lecture the
headquarters OF the bureau is visited
by hundreds OF people who are de-
sirous OF obtaining further Information
about California In these lectures
lantern slides are shown OF all parts
OF the State, SO that those who attend
get q fairly good idea Of the whole
State. The slides are furnished by va
rious county organizations. with the
result that each county gets repre-
eentation IA each lecture.

The effect Of these lectures IS espe-
cially noticeable at the home once
Of the committee, IN Union square.
where inquiries continue coming IN
at a rate which has greatly increased
the mail work OF the office. The in
ouiries are nearly all OF the same
tenor. and are for information regard
ing conditions in San Francisco. about
labor and opportunities for Investment
The lectures have been delivered as
q rule before commercial organiza-
tions and under auspices OF schools.
The audiences have been composed
largely OF employees IN Offices and
stores, and these people have been
deeply interested in the fact that there
is excessive demand for clerks and
Office help IN California Many OF the
inquiries being received by the COM
mittee are from this class of people
and in every instance letters are sent
setting forth conditions here. especial
" applicable to them. Already a great
number Of people has completed ar
rangements TO come to California and
the committee IS expecting quite q
rush in the spring, as soon as the
colonist rates go into effect
Judging from the many inquiries
that are coming from European coun-
tries TO the committee. there is a new
interest growing across the Atlantic.
with California as It's ODJeCtlVe. IheSe
inquiries are almost invariably from
agricultural people who want TO learn
about the farms of the State Through
the Consuls Of the United States in the
various foreign countries the commit
tee is getting in touch with many de-
sirable people and sending them infor-
nation regarding California which is
OF q nature 70 induce them TO make
their homes in this State. These peo-
pie are all OF the best industrial
classes, especial attention being paid
70 the densely populated farming COM
munities OF Europe. IT is expected that
the coming year win see a large gain
IN California's agricultural population
from Europe. The committee Is pay
ing special attention TO this sort OF
immigration now, as IL believes the
cities are becoming too greatly oon-
gested in proportion TO the rural
population.
In this connection the committee is
compiling statistics which VIII be
available in a few days. showing the
relative population close to the large
cities of the State and the compara-
lively sparse population OF the farm
ing districts. These statistics make q
remarkable showing in many ways. and
as the figures are as accurate as II
is possible TO make them, outside OF q
governmental census they may be
taken as authentic in every partic-
ular.
