MECHANICS OF HEART DISEASE
. eYMlLlAM BRADY. NOfo

| Charitable and customary though il
may be for the doctor to assure pa
! tient that the heart trouble is purely
J functional" the plain truth is that nc
/ clear lineof cleavage divide cases OF
| functional heart disease from those OF
organic disease. Organic heart dis
ease, like disease elsewhere, first
expresses itself by some functional
abnormality Symptoms and physical
signs elected upon examination are
nothing but marks of disturbed func-
| ton in any case The art of diagnosis
! has been considerably refined since
/ the days of our fathers. What the
medical celebrities of a generation ago
! didn't know about the heart fills many
volumes. New knowledge, new instru-
ments of precision enable the physi-
| clan to determine accurately and
| positively questions which his prede-
cessOrs had to guess at-and some of
the great men of the nineteenth cen
! fury were certainly fond of guessing !!
Disturbances of the heart are very
roughly divided into three classes /:
Organic disease, acute and chronic;
functional disturbances due to factors
altering the nerve control; and finally,
diagnostic mistakes. The third class
includes large share of the cases
coming under the physicians obser-
walton. 1t is a paradox, but true, that
genuine heart disease, as a rule, de-
velOps without the patient suspecting
anything wrong with his heart, where
as such alarming symptoms as pain,
palpitation or oppression felt in the
region of the heart are generally not
evidence of heart disease.
The much aspersed Sir William Os-
Ter, our great American medical
teacher-of Oxford, England-is made
father to many a thought he never ut
tered. but this thought he will ac-
knowledge: IF the patient complains
of his heart examine his digestive sys-
TEN; if he complains OF his stomach
look well to his heart"
"Murmurs" heard over the heart
formerly carried great weight in dag
nosis, Signifying valvular damage or
leakage" The absence of a murmur
spoke for healthy valves and war
ranted an opinion that the trouble was
only functional" This was all
wrong. Loud, musical murmurs are
commonly heard over a heart which
is thoroughly efficient, in mild cases
OF anemia, for instance. or in goitre.
On the other hand, disastrous incom-
potency from valvular distortion Cthe
result OF former Inflammation of the
heart lining) may be present without
murmur, particularly when the heart
is seriously dilated or failing In such
a case the return Of competency, the
recovery of a fair degree OF efficiency
of the heart is accompanied by a re-
turn of the absent murmur
One with valvular disease may
have more efficient heart and bet
ter expectancy OF life than one with
normal heart valves Indeed, the most
serious heart disease does not alter
valvular functions ar all. Ii is a ques-
ton of capacity for work. muscular
efficiency OF the heart. 1t is a me
chanical question

AFTER ALL.

She's athletic, academic,
But she's the girl for me,
For I've seen her all unknowing.
With a baby on her knee.
She Rugged the dimpled hddy,
And she tossed him to and fro.
And the little fellow gurgled,
For he liked it, don't you know!
And then she sang a ballad,
The kind that makes you cry,
But the kiddy-boy lay smiling,
Looking off into the sky.
Then his eyelids closed so slowly,
And my grille laid him down,
Kissed his round head very gently,
Turned-and met me with a frown
She may beat at golf and tennis,
May do awful stunts of Greek,
But I've seen the real true grille
She may hide, but / will seek.
She may play at independence,
She may pirate of brains and mind
But to make that grille love me
The way I'll surely find.
She may jeer and f1out and scorn me.
But | yet will make her see
That the best worth while of all her
Stunts is-just to marry me!

LIQUOR SCHEME
IS BROKEN UP
MUCH LIQUOR SECURED BY PEG.
PIE OF ATLANTA THROUGH
FICTITIOUS NAMES.

ATLANTA, Aug. 21.-Whisky in
Atlanta under fictitious names and is
being delivered to purchasers shortly
after it arrives, according to evidence
unearthed by the ocal4police authori-
ties.
1t appears that some Atlanta men
are so keen to get their liquor, and the
limit of two quarts per month imposed
by the prohibition law is so entirely
inadequate, that they have figured out
a scheme to secure almost immediate
deliveries through the aid of certain
agents who make a business of TAX
ing their orders.
These agents, according to the evil
dence in the hands of the police, send
a large number of daily orders to
liquor houses outside of the state. and
use fictitious names in directing how
the shipments shall be forwarded. AS
fast as the shipments arrive, the
agents send negroes the money to pay
express charges, and furnish each neg
70 with the name he shall use in ap-
plying for "his" shipment.
| In this way the agents are enabled
to keep on hand quite a large supply
and to secure a fresh supply every
day Purchasers pay the agents and
| the agents deliver to the purchasers
within short time after payment is
made.
| The police got on to the scheme
through some negroes who turned
states evidence and they are ex
erting every effort to put the agents
out of business, in which event the
members of the Ancient and Honor
able of the Burning Thirst will be
compelled to evolve from their fertile
brains another scheme to circumvent
the law.
| Liquor shipments to Atlanta have
increased to such an extent that the
! Southern Express Company has beer
| forced to seek larger quarters for its
whisky depot. Announcement has beer
made that this depot will be moved
| from West Hunter street to Chape
and Kangum streets. The fellow
with thirst will then have to trave
half mile further than he did before
but he will go just the same.
