"The Way to a Man's Heart
Is Through His Stomach."
PHYSIOLOGY THROWS NEW
LIGHT ON THE OLD
5AYINQ:
The heart is to the tinman system,
the center of life and energy.
Perhaps it is but a natural result of
this view that the Instant the heart is
affected, off we go to the doctor, no
matter what the fee. We suffer all
sorts of pains in the stomach. We en
dare much from the tdrpid liver. We
put Mide the thought of danger to the
Inngs, by saving: "Oh! it's only a
cough. It will go away after a time."
But when the heart gives an uncom
mon pulsation, or when it beats too
quickly, or seems to miss an occasional
beat, nothing will do but an immediate
examination.
Yet phvsicians aflirra that organio
disease of the heart is rare. Perhaps
only once in a hundred times where
there is derangement of the heart is
it found to be due to a disease of the
organ itself. In the other ninety-nine
cases the heart is interfered with by an
abnormal or diseased condition of some
other organ, and this organ is. generally
the stomach.
When the stomach is over-distended
by eating; or when indigestion causes
the gas from the fermentation of half
digested food to Inflate that organ, the
stomach extends outside its allotted
bound, the heart is encroached upon
and crowded, and then follow short
ness of breath and irregular, palpitating
action of the heart.
In every such case no other medicine
will so quickly effect a cure as Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It
is an axiom that disecuet tchieh originate
in the utomru h mutt be cured through the
ttomach. It is in line with this axiom
that the "Golden Medical Discovery"
works its logical and legitimate cures.
By strengthening the 6tomach, bv pro
moting the flow of the digestives juices,
the digestion is improved, the stomach
restored to its normal condition of
health, and the functional disturbance
f tha heart thereby corrected. Thou
sands of people who bOeved ther hai
heart disease have beeJi radically cured
bv the "Golden Medical Discovery."
It cures Indigestion or dyspepsia, weak
ness of the stomach and all affections
of the nutritive system, except cancer
of the stomach.
Among the commonest symptoms of
these derangements and weaknesses of
the digestive and nutritive system are
frequent attacks of bilious or sickhead
acbe, bitter taste in the mouth, tongue
coated white or covered with a brown
fur, "backache" and tired feelings, las
situde and a sense of debility. There
is generally depression of spirits and a
decided tendency to be discouraged,
and despondent; there is loss or irreg
ularity of apnetite, uneasiness or undue
fullness in the region of the stomach
after eating; sometimes sour stomach,
" heart - burn," nausea and " water
brash," flatulency, and acrid or sour
eructations or "risings" soon after eat
ing; the bowels become irregular, usually
constipated, and occasionally subject to
diarrhea, attended with colicky pains.
Not often is there any pain experienced
in the region of the liver, but it is some
times accompanied with "sideache."
The foregoing symptoms are not all
likely to be present in anv one case,
nor are. any two cases alike in every
respect.
" It gives me great pleasure to express
my faith in the virtue of Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovert'," writes Mrs.
Ellen Hayes, of Whittens' Stand, Tenn.
"For several j-ears I suffered with stom
ach trouble. Had spells which were so
bad no pen can describe the suffering I
endured mhile thev lasted. In Novem
ber, 1901, 1 wrote to Dr. Pierce, describ
ing my case, and he replied, advising
the use of his ' Medical Discovery.' I
bought nine bottles, have taken five of
them and have not had another spell
since I commenced the medicine. I
have received much and lasting good
from Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. I thank you for your kind ad
vice and the benefit I received from
your medicine."
"I wish to speak as to the benefit
received from Doctor Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery," writes Mrs. M.
Blasier, of Morgan, Oconto Co., Wis.
"My health being run-down last fall, I
caught a bad cold which settled in my
lungs and throat. 1 had a very bad
cough, also raised a great deal. Doc
tored for awhile with our country
physician and he said that if ray cough
could not be broken up I would go
into consumption. 1 could see no
benefit, from nis treatment, so I pur
chased a bottle of Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, and in two weeks'
time my cough was all gone. I am
sure the ' Golden Medical Discovery '
is one of the best cough remedies in
existence and I also know that Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is very
good for the troubles for which it is
recommended, for 1 have taken it.
"Hoping that others may be benefited
as I have been, I remain, yours with
respect."
"Never look a gift horse in the
month" is a saying which does not
apply to Dr. Pierce s generous gift of
his great medical work The People's
Common Sense Medical Adviser. This

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Cit'ieoi Organise- to Flsrht tbe City Hall
Bond Issue.
MONEY RAISED TO DEFRAY LEGAL COSTS
Brers of Omaha Has t adertaVea to
Defeat the Issne la District
Toart and Will Vet
Chance ta Try.
A meeting of well-known property owners
wss held last night at the office of David
Anderson for the purpose of taking some
tcjtfi to prevent the city council from
Issuing bonds for a city hall building. Ar
rangements were made for the raising of
funds to pay an attorney and the under
standing Is that the matter will be pushed.
P. Hreen of Omaha will have charge of
the case- when It gtes Into court. Frank
Pivonka Is one of the leaders In this move
ment. He said last night that Attorney
Breen had told him that the bond Issue
could be knocked out In the district court
and that there would be no necessity for
tnklng the case to the supreme court. Suf
ficient funds will be pledged by those op
posed to the bond Issue at this time to
carry the case to the supreme court If It Is
necessary. Attorney Breen briefly mapped
out his plana, but those who attended the
meeting will not divulge Just what these
plana are.
Those taking part In this affair are op
posed to Increasing the bonded debt of the
city Just now. With the fewer bond prop
osition coming up for a vote at a special
election some of the taxpayers do not think
that the city should load Itself up with
bonds that It will take j-mu-s to pay off and
Increase the annual amount levied for In
terest. As It Is now the city Is paying a
large amount each year for Interest on out
standing bonds. In case the fight against
the city hall bonds carry the park Ixtnds
will also go by the board, as the same legal
defects occur In both propositions. The
legal fight wilt most likely prove an Inter
esting one. as the city authorities are bent
on building a new city hall.
Manx Look at Prisoners.
Quite a number of curious people called
at the city Jail Thursday to take a look at
Williams and Howard, the two alleged
highwaymen. Up to last night no com
plaint had been filed against the prisoners,
but they are being held for investigation.
Captain Shields was around yesterday th
same as 'usual. The only evidence he dis
played was a small wound over the right
eye. His body Is bruised as the result ot
the fight. Officer Ixtwry Is about as good
as new, but Is lame and stiff from his en
counter with the hold-up men. Williams
Is sulky and declines to talk. Howard says
that his real name Is Hossmati and that
his parents live near Excelsior Springs, Mo.
During the afternoon he told so many con
flicting stories to the police that they now
do not believe anything he says. The
Omaha police are working on the case en
deavoring to locate Bowman, the third man
In the tight, who got away.
While the police think that they have se
cured two really bad men an Investigation
will be necessary before a state complaint
for highway robbery can be filed. Captain
Shields considers that he lias more than
the average amount of luck, as Williams'
revolver did not Are when the hammer
dropped on the cartridge. "There would
not have been much of my head left If
that 44 bullet had gone through me. One
strange thing about the affair Is that my
own revolver failed to explode when 1
pulled the trigger. At any rnte. both Officer
Lowry and myself are certainly extremely
lucky Just now."
Meets In Annual Session.
The annual meeting of the South Omaha
Joint Car Inspection association was
held at the exchange building on Wednes
day afternoon. This meeting was
largely attended, all railroads In the asso
ciation being represented. Reports of offi
cers were read and approved and the af
fairs of the association were found to be
In a highly satisfactory condition. An
election of officers followed the reading
of reports. George Thompson of the I'nlon
Pacific was selected as president. F. L.
Corwln of the I'nlon Stock Yards Railroad
company Is secretary. L. O. Benjamin,
James Connor and John I,angQ constitute
the executive committee. Some tlmo ago
an attempt was made to organise a Joint
car Inspection bureau In Omaha, but it
has been decided to postpone this matter
for a short time.
In vesllsrntlnK Street Sweepers.
Some of the members of the city coun
cil are looking after street sweepers, rt
has been declared by tho city officials that
the paved streets In the business portion of
the city should be swept at least three
times a week. As matters are going along
now the streets are cleaned once or twice
a month or when there Is a good heavy
rain. Residents pay little or no attention
to the odinanccs regarding the throwing
of store sweepings into the gutters and
the result Is the streets are always dirty.
Teams are allowed to stand on tho streets
a dozen hours a day and refuse Is not
carted away. Expressmen say that they
puy a license for the privilege of operat
ing drays and will not clean the streets
where their teams stand. It Is figured that
a good sweeper and sprinkler can be pur
chased for a reasonable amount and the
nightly sweeping of downtown streets can
be done by contract or the city street de
partment force at no great expense. The
result will he cleaner streets at a slight
Increase In expense.
Una- llrlnK Poisoned.
In all portions of the city complaints are
coming In about dogs being poisoned. The
police at first suspected small boys of
throwing out poison. Now they believe that
a gang of sneakthleves aro distributing
poison in order to do away with watch
dogs, so that their raids In the night time
may not bo disturbed. Owing to the small
number of police on duty at night and
the long beats officers have to cover resi
dents are excepted to bo especially watch
ful until the bunch of thieves now hanging
around the city disperses.
Plana! na; (or Brttrr Police Protection.
Members of the police board are talking
Informally of Increasing the police force
If the council can be Induced to make an
Increase In the annual levy for police pur
poses. The last legislature did not grant
an amendment to the city charter permit
ting the police hoard to Increase Its force.
Two mounted men are needed and at least
eight additional partlomen. All this will
take money. As the police fund now
stands there will be an overlap at the end
of the fiscal year of about ll.OoO. Befure the
council takes up the matter of an annual
levy the police board will request that
more money be given It so that additional
men may be added to the force.

subject of "Nnaman, the Leper." His

Christian faith. In a trust In the power and
might of God to redeem from sin.

BEM1S JURY FAILS TO AGREE
Long Trial of Daraape Suit Against City
Ends in So Verdict.
riVE TO SEVEN FOR THE DEFENDANT
Twcnty-Klve Ballots Taken with H r-
alt that Kad Seems Hopeless
aad One Mem her la Taken
Seriously Sick.
FYirmcr Mayor Pemle was disappoint"!
ti the first Jury which tried his case
against the city of Omaha for HO.ono. The
twelve men could not agree and were dis
charged by Judge Estelle at the time for
the adjournment of court Thursday aft.f
noon They had he?n out since S.S0 the dsv
before and had taken twenty-five ballots.
The vote from flrt to last stof.1 five for
the plaintiff and seven for defendant.
A call came from the Jury room at S 30
In the afternoon of Thursday and when the
lMtillff answered he was told that one
Juror. John Boat of South Omaha, was too
ill to be longer kept In the poorly ventilated
room In the basement where the Jurors
were confined. Judge Estelle had the twelve
good men and true brought up to his court
room as soon as the sick man bad recov
ered to somo extent. In answer to A ques
tion of the court the foreman said there
was no possible chance of nn agreement be
ing reached.
"We stand Just where w did when we
first went out," said he. "We wrestled with
this case until after 4 o'clock this morning,
your honor, and If we remained there a year
I don't believe we even would get any
nearer together. We simply can't agree on
any point even."
nisaarcenicnt General.
Judge Estelle wanted to know If the fall
tire to agree was on the Instructions or on
the facts.
"On both and on everything," said the
foreman. "We do not seem able to get to
gether at any one point in the rood."
Tho court then questioned each Juror
separately and they nil gave prompt answer
that they considered nn agreement Impos
sible. Mr. Hoax, tbe sick man, looking very
much fagged out and peaked, agreed with
his companions. In answer to a question
touching his sickness ho said he felt better
sine getting out of the Jury room. When
the court offered to send him a physician
he said he would not require one, and the
JiMge then remarked that he would let
them retire for nnother trial, "for a while,
anyway." He directed the bailiff to let the
men have a breathing spell In the court
house yard, but with the caution to keep
together and not to speak to any one.
When the Jury had retired City Attorney
Breen pleasantly remarked to Attorney
Thomas, associate counsel for the plaintiff,
"That sick mon Is the one that Is for the
plaintiff. You had Just one."
Then Mr. Breen reached for his hat, but
Mr. Thomas said he could not hearken to
the city attorney's Judgment.
