WHY WOMEN ARE NERVOUS.
I British Medical News

The frequent cases ofneryous pros
tration or utter collapse OF the ner-
vOus system under which women
ego all to pieces" as the saying ia,
have caused much thought and in
yestigation onIhe part ofphysicians.
Certain inorganic substances are
well known to cause various forms
of nervous diseases which are readi-
~ traced to the poisons producing
them. Further research leads tn the
belief that alum is "A prevailing cause
OF so-celled nervous prostration, for
the symptoms it produces on the
nervous system after its absorption
into the blood are very remarkable
indeed. Experiments physiological-
iy made upon animals by Orfila,
Professors Hans Mayer, Paul Seim
and Others, show that alum fire.
quently produces no visible spmp-
toms for many days after it's intro
dGction into the body. Then follow
loss OF appetite and other alimenta ia
~ disturbances, and finally serious
prostration 0f the whole nervous
system. The most prominent ply.
sicians now believe that NERVOUS
prostration" and many affect ons OF
the nerves from which both men aud
women suffer are caused by the con-
tinued absorption of alum into the
system.
1t is probable that many medical
men are unaware OF the extent to
which salts of alumina may beintro-
duced into the body, being under the
impression that the Sc of alum in
bread is prohibited. Alum, however
is still used surreptitiously to some
extent to whiten bread, and very
largely in making cheap kinds I'll
baking powder. In families where
baking powder is generally sdeu
great care should be exercised to
procure only those brands made
from cream of tartar. The alum
powders may generally be distin.
g uished by the lower price at which
they are sold.

that time explorers of the region
had to haul water over a sandy road
for thirty miles, which meant an
outlay of S. to 81 per barrel. Freight
and ali supplies had to come from
FL Paso, a distance of fifty miles,
and the wagon trains had to carry
their water supply with them.
Water is now supplied free to the
camp by the railroad company and
is hauled Ia tanks from AIamogordo.
Two miles from Jarilla is located
the celebrated DeMules turquoise
mine. A. J. DeMules was one of
the early explorers of the Jarilla
regions and located a large number
Of claims, among which was the tnr-
quoise mine, out of which he made
fortune. His history is both inter
esting and tragical. He was born
poor boy in Minnesota and at the
early age of II be took Horace
Greely's advice and came West.
For several years he herded cattle
and sheep in Colorado and the West.
Finally he located number of
claims in the Jarilla range of noun
tains and discovered and developed
as best be could with his then limit
ed facilities, the turquoise mine.
He hauled water 60 miles at cost
of $500 per barrel. But nothing
daunted him; no task was too great
for him to undertake and accomp-
ltsh. Finally the railroad came
along last September and then ne
pushed the development of his tur-
ouoise mine. He dug over $20, 900
worth of gems out of it in less than
a year. He also negotiated for the
sale Ct a number of his other mining
claims TO the railroad company for
$50 600, but on the morning of
November 90, 1898, DeMules was
shot and instantly killed in his tent
by a mul derous Mexican with whom
he is said to have had dispute over
an account. He was only Sc years
old at the time of his death and I'M
married The deal with the railroad
company was CRIED out by his ad-
ministrator, ard he left an estate OF
$50 900 in cash, the turquoise mine
and a large number of other mining
claims to be inherited by his father,
aged so years, who lives with SON.
in-law at Waterto IN, N. Y.
The turquoise mine is now in
charge of this son-in-law and
brother in.law to DeMules, Mr..
James Curren. l had the pleasure
OF visit to the turquoise mine, and
while [ was down the shaft saw the
miners dig several very fine specl-
mems. The shaft is only 81 feet
deep, but has yielded large returns.
The gems taken from this mine are
very fine, and New York firm is
now negotiating for the entire out
nut. When it is remembered that
there are less than half-dozen
TURQUOISE mines in the United
States, something of the value OF
this one can be realized.
There is also a turquoise mine at
