WAY WOMEN ARE NERVOUS.
IRritish Medical News.l

The frequent cases of nervous pros tration, of utter collapse of the nervous system under which woman Ego all td peces," as the saying is, have caused much thought and investigation on the part of physicians.
 Certain inorganic 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 & prevailing cause of so- called nervous prostration, for the symptoms it produces on the nervous system after its absorption into the blood are very remarkable indeed. Experiments physiologically made up- on animals by Orfila, Professors Hans Mayer, Paul Seim and others, show that alum frequently produces no visi- ble symptoms for many days after it's introduction into the body. Then follow loss of appetite and other alimentary disturbances, and final ly serious prostration of the whole nervous system. 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
 It is probable that many medical men are unaware of the extent to which salts of alumina may be intro duced into the body, being under the impression that the use of alum in bread is prohibited. Alum, however, is still used surreptitiously to some extent to whiten bread, and very large ly in making cheap kinds of baking powder. In families where baking powder is generally used great care should be exercised to procure only those brands made from cream of tartar. The alum powders may gener- ally be distinguished by the lower price at which they are sold.

Death of ]. H. Hopkins.

The TRIBUNE is this week called up on to chronicle the death of MT. J. Il. Hopkins, one of the foremost citizens of our town. The sad event took place on Wednesday, morning last, after an illness of fifteen days, and was the cnlmination of most singular and distressing chain of circumstances. On May 9th, Mr. Hopkins was thrown from moving machine anl sustained compound fracture of his leg. He was of highly nervous temperament, and the shock was so great that delirium and brain fever ensued which resulted in his death. Dr. Olcott of Tucson was called to consult with Dr. Broadway, and these skillful physi- clans decided that the case was hope less. After the second day the patient was unconscious, and nothing but a miracle could have saved him.
 h the absence of Rev. Mir. Whitte- more the funeral services were con ducted at the family residence on Thursday by Judge F. NJ. Doan in a most impressive manner, and one of the largest funeral processions ever seen in Florence followed the remains to the grave

Postage to be Reduced to One cent.

The enormous increase in the mum Der of letters carried in the U. s. mails makes it certain that the rate of post age must eventually be reduced to one cent an ounce. The President who succeeds in getting such measure through Congress will hold high place in the esteem of the people, but no.higher than the esteem in which everybody holds Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This medicine has an unequal led record in reducing the sickness of mankind. It gets at the starting point of disease by acting upon the stomach direct, helping that important organ in it's duty of digesting food. It makes good appetites, allays nervousness, stimulates the kidneys, and makes rundown man or woman feel like a ! new person. Try it.
