Shield is a tremendous mprovc
ment over all former methods,
effecting immediate results. It
will not only hold the rupture
perfectly, no matter the size or
location but it will increase the
circulation, strengthen the weak-
ened parts, and thereby close
the opening in ten days on the
average case, regardless of heavy
lifting, straining or any position
the body may assume. A na-
tionally known scientific method.
No under straps or cumbersome
arrangements and absolutely no
medicines or medical treatments.

FUNCTIONS OF HEART
RATED AS BIG OPERATION
AUSTIN, March 28.—Pumping
2500 gallons of blood every 24
hours is the astonishing work
done by the heart, according to
I Dr. George W. Cox. state health
'officer. The heart is about the
size of a man's fist and is rated
at 1-240th of a horse power; it
never sleeps, loafs or takes a
vacation from the beginning of
life to the end. The only rest
it gets is between beats. Yet
with all the work the heart has
to do, it does not give out sud-
denly unless it has been injured
or ill-treated.
Under pressure of work the
average person neglects his heart
and unwittingly abuses it. The
chief causes of heart trouble,
aside from the deterioration of
old age, are rheumatic fever,
acute infectious diseases, chronic
infections, syphilis, too abrupt
return to actvity after a serious
illness, too strenuous exercise
and overweight may be a fac-
tor.
Many of the signs which you
may think mean heart trouble
can be caused by some other
disorder. Indigestion, lung
trouble, or nervousness may
cause pain near the heart,
shortness of breath, fainting and
irregularity of beat. If you
have any of these symptoms, do
not try to diagnose the condi-
tion yourself, but go to your
doctor for an examination. He
will be able to find out what is
wrong, and may tell you that
your heart is sound. Have a
regular periodic examination
and follow your doctor's ad-
vice.
