MINING METHODS or AMERICA
Why Production Here is Larger Per
Capita Than Aboard.

IL Is not difficult TO understand the
manufacturing supremacy Of the Unit
ed States when one compares our coal
production statistics with those Of for.
cign countries, says the Boston Tran
script. The country having a cheap
supply of fuel for steam purposes will
lead in manufacturing There are
employed in the coal mines of Great
Britain nearly 100000 men. and they
produced last year a coal product val.
ued al $100,000.000 more than that Of
this country Yet with less than sos,
600 coal miners in the United States
we produced 100000 tons more Of
coal than did Great Britain. With us
there is an average production per
miner of little less than 1000 tons
of coal per annum, Great Britain
produces 2S7 tons per capita, Germany
242 tons. France 1913 tons, and Bel.
GUM 1GG tons.
These figures show the immense
superiority of the American coal min.
err yet mine owners testify that IT is
due to methods rather than men, as
the British miners who come here
make our best workmen. The differ
ence is that Great Britain largely
clings 20 the antiquated method OF
pick mining, while here steam has
taken the place of muscle and powder
has been substituted for picks. In
the thicker coal seams there is no
longer any pick work and the physical
exercise Of drilling is no longer neces.
sary
Yet there is another side to the
matter. The mortality from accidents
in the Illinois coal mines last year
was 2.S7 per 1000 men employed
which is one and onehalf times the
percentage Of fatal accidents in Brit
ish mines. 1t is evident that some
means should be taken to reduce the
death rate and it has been suggested
that blasts should not be made while
the miners are still at work, but
should be set off after hours by mer
chosen for this dangerous occupation

make you irritable; you can't sleep,
you are unable to quietly and calmly
perform your daily tasks or care for
your children.
The relation OF the nerves and gen.
erative organs in women is so close
that nine-tenths of the nervous pros
tration, nervous debility, the blues,
sleeplessness and nervous irritability
arise from some arrangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fits of depression or restlessness and
irritability. Spirits easily affected. so
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps. Pain in the ovaries and
between the shoulders. Loss of voice;
nervous dyspepsia. A tendency to cry
at the least provocation. All this points
to nervous prostration.
Nothing win relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros
tration and suffering SO surely as Lydia
