wife of the editor of The Graphic, the lead- 

 ing local paper of Miami county, writes 

 "E 'was tr&'ubl&<cl tvitJ}, MbutH slisefflse 

 for six years, severe palpitations, short- 

 ness of breath, together with such ex- 

 treme nervousness, that, at times I would 

 walk the floor nearly all night. We 

 consulted the best medical talent. 

 Tiiey said, there •was mo lielj^f&r «sae, 

 that I had organic disease of the heart for 

 which there was no remedy. I had read 

 your advertisement ia The Graphic and 

 a year ago, as a last resort, tried one bottle of 

 Ht. Miles' FJetv €u^e for ttie Mea.rt, 

 which convinced me that there was true 

 merit in it. I took three bottles each of the 

 Heart Cure and Eestorative Nervine and 

 It c«MMpletely cured, me. J slee^p 

 well at night, my heart beats regularly and 

 I have no more smothering spells. I wish 

 to say to all who are suffering as I did; 

 there's relief untold for them if they will 

 only give your remedies just one trial." 

 Dr. Miles Heart Cure is sold on a positive 

 guarantee that the first bottle will benefit. 

 All druggists sell it atSl, 6 bottles forS5. or 

 it will be sent, prepaid, on receipt of price
