why Women are Nervous.

! The frequent cases Of nervous prostra-
| ton or utter collapse Of the nervous sys-
TEN under which woman 'go all to
! pieces" as the saying Is, have caused
much thought ana investigation on the
part OF physicians.
Certain inorganic substances are well
known 10 cause various forms of nervous
diseases which are readily traced TO the
posons producing them. Further re-
search leads TO the belief that alum is
a prevailing cause Of so-called nervous
prostration, for the symptoms 1t produces
on the nervous system after its absorption
into the blood are very remarkable,
indeed Experiments physiologlcally made
upon animals by Orila, Professors Hans
Mayer. Paul Seim, and others show that
alum frequently produces no visible symp-
toms for many days after its introduction
into tho body. Then follow loss Of appe-
tlte and other ailmentary disturbances.
and finally a serious prostration of the
whole nervous system. The most promi-
mont physicians now believe that nervous
prostration" ana many affections of the
nerves from which both men and women
suffer are caused by the continued absorb
ton OF alum into the system.
II is probable that many medical men
are unaware of the extent 10 which salts
OF alumina may DO introduced into the
body. being under the impression that the
use OF alum I'm bread is prohibited. Alum
Is still used surreptitiously TO
some extent 10 whiten bread. and very
largely in making cheap kinds OF baking
nowaer. In families where baking powder
IL generally used great care should be
exercised 10 produce only those brands
made from cream Of tartar. The alum
posders may generally be distinguished
by the lower price at which they are sold. !

OF the bylaws IS also proposed, 10 read
after the word Federation as follows
such reunion to be held at any place In
State or section OF State which formed
part Of the Confederate States OF America
and recognized the Confederate flag as
their national standard"
There Will be other changes proposed,
notices of which have been given, and
altogether, from these facts and the ex-
pected attendance. this meeting is pre-
dicted TO be one of the most interesting
ever Id BY the veterans.
General John Il. Gordon, general COM
handing, has issued q request for all
the camps 10 bring with them their old
tattered battle-fags. The old flags or
Forts Sumter and Moultrie will be I'm
line. and it is desired TO have the largest
display Of old flags ever seen In any
parade or reunion.
There are now l,lS0 camps enrolled, and
there are 200 more seeking enrolment.
This Is the largest number OF camps the
organization has ever had. But the ranks
are being thinned out year by year. as
General Gordon pathetically calls atten-
ton 10, and each time OF meeting as the
old soldiers gather and call the roll some
are absent, having answered the last
roll-call.
