Some Facts Regarding the Rapid Increase of
heart Trouble.
lLart troabifs, at least among the
Americans, are certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to the
excitement aud worry of American busi
uess life it is more often the resalt of
weak stomachs, of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incnrable, bat
not oue case iu a hundred of htart trou
ble is organic.
The close relation between heart trou
ble and poor digest mi l* because » t h
organ* are controlled by the same great
nerve*, the Sympathetic aud Pneunio-
gastric.
In another way, also the heart is af
fected by the form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation from
half digested foed There is a feeling
of oppression and heaviness in the chest
caused by pressure of the heart aud
lungs, interfering with their action,
hence arises palpitation and short
breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
making it thin and watery, which irri
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation of
food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant aud
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart’s Dyi-pepsia Tablets which may
be found at most drug stores, and which
contain valuable, harmless digestive
elements in a pleasant convenient form.
It is safe to say that the regalar per
sistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
at meal time will care any form of
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.

by druggists at 60 cents. Little book on
