Harper’s Weekly: The brisk demand for colievye Presidents foruse outside of! their immediate callieg has been illustra:

!recenily in the appointment of Presi- lent Angell a8 unnister to Turkey, the nomination of Pre-ident Low for Mayor o New York, and he «ffurt toivduce Pre- ident Gi'man to serve a8 a member of the War Investigating Commission. The newest example of it is the appomtment if President Schurmsn of Cornell as pre» sdentof the commisson named by the President to go tothe Philippine Islands, to ‘investigate and consider the situation there snd give advice asto what our govern- ment ought to do next. Cornell was pleased at Dr. Schurman’s appointment, and on January 23 the university ¢xchang- ed farewe'ls with him at a crow’«d meet- vg. Dr.Schurman eaid be felt bonored by th2 duty iatrusted tohim, but that be expected to be back in I:hacato stay by the beginning of the next college year (October proximo).

HEART DISEASE,

SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID INCREASK OF HEART

TROUBLES.

Do NotBe Alarmed, But Look For The Cause.

Heart troubles, at least among the

Americans, are ceriainly increasieg and while this may be largely due to the excite meut a:d worry of American business life, it is more often the reeuli of weak stomachs, of poor digestion.

Real organ c disease is incurable, but not one case in a hundred cf heart troubles je organic.

The clore relation between heart trouble and poor digestion is becanse both organs are controlled by the same great nerves, the Sympathetic and Pheumogas'ric.

In enother way, elso the heart is affect~

ed by the form otf poor digestion, which causes gae and fermentatian from half

digested fcol. There is a feeling of im- pression and heaviness in the chest caused hy pressure of the distended stomach on the heart and lungs, interfering with the action; hence arises pa!pitstiona and short breath.

Poor digestion also poisous the blood, making it thin and watery, which irritates and weakens the heart.

Ibe most sensible treatment for heart trouble is to improve the digestion ard to insure the prompt assimilation of food,

This can be done by the regular use afier meals of some safe, pleasant and effective digestive preparation, like StuarUs Dyepepsia Tableis, which may be found at most drug stores and which contain valuable, harmless digestive ele- ments in ay leasant, convenient form,

It issafe to say that the regniar peraist-~ ent use of Stuart’s Dyszepsia Tablets at meal time will cure any form of stcmach trouble except cancer of the stomach.

Full size packaze of these tablets soli by druggiets at fifty cents. Little book on stomach troubles mailed free. Address F. A. Siuart, Co., Marshal), Mich,
