HEART DISEASE.

INOIIH.VSK Ol' IIUAKT TKOUllLUS.
Do Not lio Alarmed Hut Look for thu
Cuuho.
Heart troubles at lrast among tho
Americans are certainly increasing;
and whilo this may be largely duo to
tho excitement and worry of American
business life it is moro often tho ro
suit of weak stomachs of poor dlgcB
tton.
Real organic disease is incurable but
not one case in a hundred of heart
trouble is organic.
Thu close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by tho same
groat nerves tha sympathetic and
pneumogastric.
In another way also tho heart is
a treated by tho form of poor digestion
winch causes gas and fermentation
from half digested food ; there is a
feeling of oppression ad heaviness in
the chobt caused by pressure of tho
dthtonded stomach on tho heart and
lungs interfering with their action;
hence arises palpitation and short
breath
Poor digestion also po'sons tho blood
making it thin and watory which Irrl-
taUs and weakens th- heart.
The most sensible treatment for
heart troublo is to 1i prove the diges-
lion and o insure tho prompt assiml-
lati n of food.
This cau be done by tho regular uso
nfter muals of some safe pleasant and
offectivu digestive preparation like
ntuarts Dyspepsia Tablet- which may
bu found at most drug stores and
which contain valuable harmless di
gestivo elements in a pleasant con-
venient form.
It Is safe to say that the regular
persistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at meal time will euro any
form of Btomach troublo except cancer
of the stomach.
Full size ' package of theso tablets
so d by druggists at 50 cents. Little
book on stomach troubles mailed freo.

OKLAHOMA'S FRUIT.
Vouch Crop Will 1)0 n Two-thirds Iiillnro
Great uneasiness has been enter
talncd by the fruit growors of the
territory as to tho extent of tho dam
ago done to tliQ fruit crop by tho recent
cold weather. It scorns that no gen-
eral inquiry has boon mado Into this
important matter by uny particular
person but somo growers have for
tholr own Intorest In the matter exam-
ined to a limited oxtent and they find
that about two-thirds o f the crop is
killed. This Is a rough ostluinto. The
nature of a peach troe is to put oil'
qulto early in tills cllmato and as a
consequence a great many buds will
precede their fellows several days. In
this caso buds would of course be
killed by such sovore weather. Tho
tendency of peach trees in Oklahoma
is to overbear and many oreharillsts
claim tho crop will bo large enough
any way.

Outhrlo Okla. February as '.
To tho mum be of the City Counui
of Outhrlo Okla. Honorable Sir:
Wo aro fully convinced that we can
not accept of an appropriation from
you toward the support of the Ilethul
Mission We cannot as Christian
ask or receive governmental aid. Our
reasons aro these:
When Christ was asked if it
lawful to pay tribute to Cettsar
answered: "Render to Ceasar
was
He
the
lio.l
set-
things that arc Ceuaar's and to
tho things that are Goit's" thus
ting fort" plainly that .'eausr (civil
government) Ins Its own sphere of
action that of regulating our tempo
rul ulTatrs. While God Is a spirit ttnd
regulates our duty to Illm and to Him
each one must give an account for our
violation of his law of moral couduot.
Tho civil government has the tight to
collect taxes from the people to main-
tain tho expenses of the government
for this bus buen consented to by the
people. It Is an eternal truth that all
"govornmout- derive their just pow
en from the convent of the governed "
Kvon so In God's government noun are
compelled to yield unwilling obedience
yul Ho invites all. He says II
lovos tho cheerful giver of means to
support His work of love in rescuing
men a l wi men. These being Chris
tiun principles any departure from
them by any churuh would be a denlu
of their profession and hence make
thorn aritt-OhristUii no mailer how
ui'icli they may profess. And should
any church receive support from the
government city or natioi si It wou'tl
by that act oiler to unite church aod
stale und thus deny tbe power of God
and nt the same time surrender their
right to protest a aiast the union of
uny other churuh with tbe state und
be taxed to support a religion Iu which
they have no faith thus d i.ylng bi
practice the principles of God's govern
nient und forcing their own cbaln-
Kron to to accept the money of the
goreni'iient. wbteli hi been paid by
the people for regulating their civil
affairs won d be a violation of the
same principles. Grin' word are to
tbe point; ' Leave tho matter of re-
ligion to th family altar tbe chureb
and the p'lvate schools supported en-
tirely bv private coutrlbutio s "
Thitukiug you for your kindness in
the past and asking your ni uperttion
in the rescue work in which e are
engaged by private contributions we
remain your respectfully.
