MANS ARTERIES.
And Some Of the Causes That Tend to
Make Them Harden.

"a man is as old as his arteries
is a common saying among physicians,
which has come to be taken up by
their patients. DR.. Herbert G.. Clapp
of Boston in the New York Medical
Record comes forward with an article
declaring that worry is common
cause Of arteriosclerosis, the harden
ing Of the arteries is not infrequently
considered as one OF the customary and
proper Accomplishments of ripe old
age-sometimes even OF middle life
1t is not universally so, and that even
at fourscore years. as proved by
autopsies the arteries have been found
to be perfectly sound, He cites the
case of the champion old man, Thomas
Parr of England, who died at the
advanced age of 152 and whose arter
les were found by Harvey-who dis
covered the circulation Of the blood
on examination after death to he per-
fectly sound.
DR.. Clapp says that within certain
limits the arteries do not harden be-
cause they are old, but are old because
they are diseased. Among causes for
arterioSclerosiS lie gives Overeating. eX
cessiye muscular strain and excessive
brain work. Worry produces func-
tional disturbances and undue blood
pressure This brings with it arterio-
sclerosis. He holds that most wor-
ries are INDUCED in without an AIDE
quate reason, therefore and cites the
following quotation: Il am an old man
and have had many troubles, but most
of them never happened"

POPPING CORN.
Why the Heat Literally Turns the
Grains inside Out.


A grain of popcorn is filed with
tightly packed starch grains. The In
terror of the grain is divided into q
large number OF cells, each OF which
may be likened TO tiny box, the falls
whereof are sufficiently strong to with
stand considerable pressure from with
IN. Upon the application of heat the
moisture present in each little box Is
converted into steam that finally es-
capes by explosion.
To obtain satisfactory popping
there Is required very high degree of
heat. This causes the greater part of
the cells 70 explode simultaneously.
The grain OF corn then literally turns
inside out aud is transformed into Il
relatively large mass of snow white
starch
If corn he old and dry il will not
pop satisfactorily \ few cells near
the center If the grain may burst,
but the general result will he unsatis-
factory. At the base of the kernels.
where they are attached to the cob,
the cells appear TO he driest, and it
has been Observed that these cells are
seldom broken in the popping.
Practically all the popcorn raised
for market in this country comes from
New England Great quantities of il
are popped, buttered and packed for
sale aIl over the United States
