still almost a beardless youth he
was'appointed a class leader and
all through his life, until enfeeb
led by age he gave much of bis
time and thought to the church.
. He lived a consistent and blame-
less life and died with bright
hopes. Just a -few days before
his death he spoke to those at his
bedside about getting ready to
go with .him and when asked
where he was going his reply
was, “to Heaven.” To him were
b.nn twelve childron, two of

Weak
Hearts
•**>
Are due to Indigestion. Ninety-nine of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can-remember when it was simple Indiges-
tion. It Is a scientific fact that all eases of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to. but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, puffing It up against the
heart. This Interferes with the action of
the heart, and In the course of time that
delicate hut vftal organ becomes diseased.
Mr. D, Kaublo. of Mavada, O.. says: 1 had stomach
trouble and was in a bad state as I had heart trouble
with It. 1 took Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, for about four
tnonths and It cured me.
Kodol Digests What You Eat
and relieves the stomach, of all
satisfied after using two-thirds of the
contents. This is the best remedy in
the world for la grippe, coujrh3, colds,
croup aud whooping cough and is
pleasant and safe to take. It pre-
vetrtr any tendency of a cold to result
j in pneumonia.

The appeal was so earnest, so noble,
