My Breath.
Shortness of Breath
Is One of the Com
monest Signs of
Heart Disease,
Notwithstanding; what many physic
ians »ay, heart disease can be cured.
Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure has per
manently restored to health many
thousands who had found no relief In
the medicines (nllopnthlc or homoeo
pathic) of regular practicing physicians.
It has proved Itself unique In tho his
tory of medlclno, by being so uniformly
successful in curing those diseases.
Nearly always, one of tho first signs
of trouble Is shortness of breath. Wheth
er It comes ns a result of walking or
running up stairs, or of other exercises.
If the heart Is unable to meet this extra
•demand upon its pumping powers—there
Is something wrong with It.
The very best thing you can do, Is to
take Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure. It
will go to tho foundation of tho trou
ble, and make a permanent euro by
strengthening and renewing tho nerves.
“1 know thnt Dr. Miles' New Heart
Cure Is a great remedy. For n number
of years 1 suffered from shortness of
breath, smothering spells, and pains In
my left side. For months at a time I
would bo unable to lie on my left side,
and If 1 lay tlat on my hack would nearly
smother. A friend ndvised using Dr.
Miles' New Heart Cure, which I did
with good results. I began to lmprovo
at once, and after taking several bottles
of the Heart Cure the pains in my side
and other symptoms vanished. I am
now entirely well. All those dreadful
smothering spells are a thing of tho
past."—F. P. DRAKE, Middletown, O.

the druggist will refund your money.

its heel upon the neck of the viotim by
the shepherd’s mode of punishing unruly

A curious effect of the wear and

being subjected Is exhibited In the sin
gularly capped pinnacles existing on
South river, In the Wasatch moun
tains, In Utah. There are hundreds of
these slender pillars, ranging In height
from 40 to 400 feet, most of them
crowned by large caps of stones. They
are not works of human art, as might
lie Imagined, but are the memorial
monuments of the hill from which they
have been, out by tho action of air
and water. Those pinnacles alone re
main of many square tulles of solid
rocks, which have been washed away
to a depth of some 400 feet. Tho
greater hardness of the surface has
caused It. to resist corrosion more than
the underlying rock, thus leaving huge
nips of stone perched high In air on
the points of their columns. One dou

forms a natural bridge both unique

were carefully searched, nnd then ev
ery foot of ground within a wide cir

sign of any belt or money was found.
Neither could any tracks of either mun
or animal be seen. It was a mystery
ivliut hud become of tlmt money licit,
for they were many, many miles from
any human habitation, and no one had
passed lliem on the trail for days.
Giving up the search with reluctance,
the two men went on south to the end
of their Journey, but they did not buy
any cattle.
About thirteen months later Mr. Har
rell and another of Ills live stock
friends made the hiiiiio horseback trip
again. They camped not far from the
place where the buckskin belt had been
lost on tho previous Journey.
“Right over yonder," said Mr. Har
rell, showing his friend, "Is where I
lost $1,(500 In gold when I went through
here about 11 year ago. I’d like to know
what became of tbut pile."
“Let’s go over and look around there
again Just for fun," suggested his
friend.
They did so, and, strange to relate,
they accidentally stumbled right over
the very spot where the money had
been dropped. For over twelve months

ned by the breezes, yet there they were,
apparently unchanged In the least.
Though the money had mysteriously
disappeared, It was almost as strangely
recovered. All of it was found but two
twenty dollar pieces.
Here is tho explanation: A hungry
coyote had passed by the sleeping (rev
eler and had sniffed around till it found
the buckskin belt. This was seized and
carried off to a safe distance before the
animal stopped to chew up the buck
skin. On the way two of the coins had
dropped from thu belt, but Hie rest of
the gold held in place 1111 It was torn
from Its recesses as the sharp toothed
