Why Women are Nervous.

The frequent cases of nervous pros.
tration or utter collapse of the nervous
system under which women "go all to
pieces" as the saying is, have caused
much thought and investigation on the
part of physicians.
Certain inorgantic substances are
well known to cause various forms of
nervous diseases which are readily
traced to the poisons producing them.
Further research leads to the belief
that alum is a prevailing cause of so.

The Heavens In November.

By Garrett p. serviss, in Scientific American
The expected return of the main body
of the November meteors dwarfs every
other astronomical event this fall. The
splendor of their display, in 1888, made
SO deep an impression that they have
ever since occupied place apart in the
popular imagination as the most gor-
geous and startling Of all celestial
pageauts. The fact that three of their
periods measure just the span of a
century tends to add to their reputa-
tion as Is spectacle. Although their
returns are separated by a space Of
thirty-three years and fraction yet
they may be seen three times in the
course of mans life. One who saw
them as child, in 1888, might have re-
garded their frey menace with the
cooler judgment of a middle.aged man
in 1866, and, this year, may behold again
the scene that marked the start and
the turning post of his life with ineffa-
ceable memories of wonders in the
heavens.
But, while everybody hopes for a
brilliant spectacle on this occasion,
there are reasons for anticipating a
possible disappointment. In 1866 the
display, although imposing, was by no
means as wonderful as it had been in
1888. The fact that the meteors we're
almost as abundant in 1877 us in 1866
showed that they we're being scattered
along their path. Later Investigations
indicate that this scattering of the
meteors has probably continued ever
since. The planet Jupiter, the great
perturber of the solar system, has had
his his hands upon them. They are
apparently travelling in several shoals,
or parallel streams, and it may be that
when the earth crosses their line of
march it will fail to pass through any
very dense column of the wanderers.
Yet, at the worst, it is certain that
there will be meteoric SHOWER"

hundred, visible in an hour, or there

tenn. The most prominent physicians
now believe that nervous prostration"
and many affections of the nerves from
which both men and women suffer are
caused by the continued absorption of
alum into the system.
1t is probable that many medical men
are unaware of the extent to which
salts of alumina may be introduced into
the body, being under the impression
that the use of alum in bread is pro-
hibited. Alum, however, is still used
surreptitious!y to some extent to whiten
bread, and very largely in making cheap
kinds of baking powder. In families
where baking powder is generally used
great care should be exercised to pro-
cure only those brands made from
cream Of tartar. The alum powders
may generally be distinguished by the
lower price at which they are sold.

The treatment of catarrh coughs,
colds. pneumonia and consumption by
inhalation was used more or less by the
regular profession ten years ago, and al
though they were aware that through
inhalation alone could these diseases be
reached and cured, such treatments We're
given up because no germicide had yet
been found that could be carried to the
diseased parts in the air we breathe.
Sprays, douches, atomizers and Vapors
have been used to great extent by ad-
vertising specialists since, but not by the
regular profession; their knowledge OF
the construction of the air passages teach
ing them that none of these treatments
were permitted by nature to enter the
bronchial tubes and lungs. Three years
ago a new antiseptic was discovered in
Australia. 1t proved to be perfect dry
air germicide, THE ONLY, ONE EVER
FOUND. Knowing the value of such a
discovery, a company was formed and
arrangements made to transport this artl-
Gle from its distant home to the sea-
board, and from there to all parts of the
world. AT first physicians refused to be-
leve that this long sought germicide had
at last been discovered, but gradually
the truth was forced upon them; thou
sands of cases were cured before their
very eyes. The boards of health in all
the large cities where it was used re-
ported a decrease in the deaths from
catarrh, bronchitis and consumption OF
over 80 per cent in Il months. Thus it
was that results, and results alone
proved the value of the new cure. Cures

this, they know that but one dry air

narrow escape from being drowned ir
Laphams pond, this afternoon at
O'Clock. The lads, in company with
several other companions, were run

occurred.
1t is customary for boys to, congre-

is warm and locate the weak places
on the ice and then run over it until
some of the party break through To-
day the lads were enjoying themselves
when the ice gave way letting George
Army, Harry Pluff and George Flag
into the cold January water.
Luckily there was an old ladder near
by and some of the older boys Sc
cured 1t and went on to the broken ice
and rescued the three Youngsters
Eye witnesses of the accident said that
II was by the narrowest margin that
the trio were rescued.

nothing suspicious. The affair was a
mystery to everybody but two men, one
of whom called upon Station Agent F.
j. Waite Friday evening, and ex-
planned matters.
He said that he, with another man,
was passing the Parker mill crossing
Wednesday evening, and his companion
fell across the rails. The narrator

ably to the train-wrecking story.
