HAVE YOU HEART DISEASE?

Thousands of people, said a ' well-known medical man the other day, when giving evidence at a coroner's inquest, are walking about to-day with hearts as weak and diseased that the sudden rat-tat rat-tat of the postman's double knock might cause their death. This is truly an alarming statement, yet there is no doubt that deaths from heart weakness and failure are steadily increasing in number every year. On the other hand, every medical man knows that hundreds of people who are literally frightening themselves to death with the fear of heartdisease are really the victims of indigestion, constipation, dilata^ tion of the stomach, and kindred intestinal and stomachic affections. Palpitation of the heart is nearly always the result of errors of diet, or bad dietetic habits, such as over-eating, too rapid eating — some men and women ought to be charged with furious eating, — and anything that will correct these errors and evil habits will_ allay and banish palpitation. If you have palpi-tation,-dizziness, breathlessness, and other symptoms of heart disease, do not get disheartened and conjure up fears of heart disease. The probability is that the disease is not in that vital organ, but in the stomach and the muscles that lie around the heart. Indigestion and flatulence will give birth to all the more characteristic symptoms of heart disease, and in such cases the scnices of a doctor are totally unnecessary. Dr. ENSOR'S TAMER JUICE, taken regularly at night-time for a few weeks, will prove quite sufficient to remove the cause of all your trouble and restore healthy digestion. It is mfld in action and more efficacious than drastic purgatives that are naturally followed by an equally drastic reaction. Dr. ENSOR'S TAMER JUICE is obtainable from all chemists in bottles at 2s 6d each, and if you are worried by any of the distressing symptoms that make you think you have heart disease, just give it a brief trial Don't postpone good intentions, but call at your chemist to-day and try just one bottle. You will be delighted with the result
