May Be Weak. One
Person in Four Has
a Weak Heart.
On** of the surest signs of a weak
heart is shortness of breath after exercise.
Your heart is not able to pumji the
blood fast enough to your lungs.
Some of the other symptoms of Heart
Trouble are: Pains in the Side, Back
and Shoulder: Fainting or Weak Spells;
Pry Cough: Swi lling of Feet and Ankles;
Cold Feet or Hands.
No one can afford to allow a weak
heart to go without medicine, because
weak heart means poor circulation, and
poor circulation means weak lungs,
stomach, liver, kidneys, etc.
If. therefore, you suspect heart trouble,
begin taking Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure.
The Heart Cure will do you good, as it is
a splendid tonic for the blood and nerves,
and will revitalize your entire system.
Finally, remember, Dr. Miles’ New
Heart Cure is r-old under a guarantee
that the first bottle will do you good.
If It doesn’t—your money back.
