Heart
Troubles
The heart m:iv ho weak
%/
just the same as the eyes,
stomach or other organs.
It often happens that a
person is horn with a weak
heart. Then again dis
ease, fevers, over-exertion,
anxiety, nervousness,
rheumatism, etc. weaken
the heart. The result is
shortness of breath, pal
pitation, pain in the heart,
or in some of the nerves
of the chest or abdomen.
The heart should be
strengthened with a tonic,
and for this nothing equals
Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure.
“I had IjtGrlppo lust fall as I
thought In a mild form. 1 was wreak,
tired feeling, and short of breath;
could hardly go nhout, and a good
deal of the time sort of an asthmatic
breathing and extremely nervous, I
began taking Hr. Miles’ Heart Cur«
xml Nervine and now l feel so much
better In every way. I am so thank
ful tl at I began taking this medicine,
and shall not hesitate to tell other*
bow much good It has done me.”
