Let my reader bear in mind that I am speaking strictly from my own experience, not from the au thorities. My opinion is, that throat infections lead in causing serious heart affections. Influenza is a most dangerous and deadly thing- if neglected. Tonsillitis may cause either valvular disease, or myocarditis. No throat infection should go untreated for a single hour. Colitis, accompanied by putre faction in the colon, is a potent source of heart disease. The pres ence of indican in the urine tells us that we have the makings of ser ious carlo-vascular trouble, unless we attend to that colon, and diet accordingly. Once heart disease i9 set up, every hearty meal aggra vates the circulatory disorder. If you happen to have a large abdom en, out of proportion to your gen eral build, you are putting up with something that will make you trouble some day. Watch.the colon. Of course pneumonia and rheu matism often leave defective hearts, both of them bearing dis ease-germs from the respiratory organs. With such a heart it is utter foolishness to give heart stimulants with the idea of effect ing a cure, until you are rid of the germs that are causing the weakened heart. In my experience, vaccines aa-e t<Te most rational treatment for infections, though many physicians seem to believe differently. When failure occars, the diagnosis is probably inaccur ate. " Two valuable suggestions for the heart are,—do not neglect your throat, and, take care of the cblon —do not overeat. In this way you may lessen your chances for heart disease. * NOTICE OE LAND SALE On the lttth day of July, 192S, th< undersigned mortgagee sold the land hereinafter desciibad under powe: contained in the mortgage from A.
