Greenwood cemetery is suffering for
the second time i'll its history llUm a
too great increase in its colony of
chipmunks. Eighteen years ago they
became such Il nuisance that a Irapper

This year it was noticed that an I'M
usual number were about, even in the
early spring, when the chipmunks first
appear after 4 winters s.eep. Now it
is estimated that there are at least
10000 chipmunks in the cemetery, IND
a great deal Of damage has been dcne.
Through their burrowirg habits they
have undermined the gravcstones. ard
even in many cases caused graves to
sink in. when raiiwater has helped TO
hollow out their burrows.
The chief enemies of the chipmunks
are the florists, for the animals Mn
growing plants at the roots to reach
the sap. One Brooklyn f!crist says thS I

HOW WORRY KILLS.
t Injuries Beyond Repair Certain Cells
of the brain.


Modern science has brought to light
nothing more curiously interesting than
the fact that worry will kill More re-
marhable still. it has been able to de-
termine, from recent discoveries, lust
how worry does kill.
1t is believed by many scientists who
bave followed most carefully the growth
Of the science of brain diseases that
scores of the deaths set down to other
causes are due to worry, and that alone.
The theory is Il simple one-so simple
chat any one can readily understand it.
Briefly put, it amounts to this: Worry
Injuries beyond repair certain cells of
the brain, and, the brain being the nu-
tritiye center of the body, the other or
gans become gradually injured, and
when some disease of these organs or
a combination of them arises death
finally ensues.
Thus does worry kill Insidiously,
ike many another disease, it crecps
upon the brain in the form of a single,
constant, never lost idea, and, as the
dropping of water over a period Of
years will wear groove in a stone, SO
does worry gradually, impcrceptibly,
but no less surely, destroy the brain
cells that lead all the rest-that are, so
to speak, the commanding officers of
mental power. health and motion
Worry, to make the theory still
stronger, is an irritant at certain points,
which produces little harm if it comes
at intervals or irregularly. Occasional
worrying of the system the brain can
cope with, but the iteration and reitera-
ton of one idea Of disquieting sort
the cells of the brain are not proof
against. 1t is as if the skull We're laid
bare and the surface of the brain struck
lightly with hammer every few sec
onds, with mechanical precision, with
never sign of a let up or the failure Of
a stroke.
Just in this way does the annoying
idea, the maddening thought that will
not be done away with, strike or fall
upon certain nerve cells never ceasing
and week by week diminishing the vi

are so minute that they can only be

Gas as Fuel.

When it comes to the general use Of
gas, the price of the gas has something
to do with it. We all know that the
gas engine is more commonly used Ill
England than in the United States, but
the explanation is simple. Boston and
Manchester have nearly the same popu-
lation The consumption of gas in
Manchester i'll one year was 1886, 600,
600 cubic feet, or more than was used
in the entire state of Massachusetts,,
but the price of gas in Manchester was
60 cents per 1000 feet, while in Boston
at the same period the average per |, 900
was 81. 80. The price of gas is much too
high. American Machinist.
