OFFICE UP STAIRS IN THE WILCOXON BLOG The Herald and Advertiser "have lit” again, and this time it is in Dick Russell’s hack yard, And the “Hill Hailey” of Coweta county politics came home only to How l in Dick Russell’s back yard, The cry raised by Hoke Smith’s opponents that he is "losing ground" may be rightfully classed as dirt—y politics. The prize Hopper has (lopped some more, and the constant and consistent Herald and Advertiser is beginning to feel at home in the Russell camp. If the people of Georgia want a jokesrnith lor governor, instead of Hoko Smith, they will make no mistake in electing the Hon. Richard H. Russell. All over the State from the op position is going up the howl that Hoke Smith is "losing ground." This howl merely indicates that the Howell campaign is in the last stages of desperation. If Hoke Smith has "lost ground," as his opponents are try ing to make the people believe, he must have had a hundred thousand square miles or more in his pos session when the campaign opened. Rusted arc all of the other al lege! 1 booms that were guaranteed to sweep Coweta county, and in a few fleeting days the alleged boom of the Hon. Dick Russell will join them in innocuous desue tude. If the opposition to Hoke Smith in Coweta wants to try to carry the county for Howell, Russell, Kstill or Jim Smith, the job is up to it; hut the News gives fair warn ing that something besides a bluff will he required to finish the job with neatness and dispatch. Again the metamorphosis is complete, and the Herald and Ad vertiser has blossomed forth as the full Hedged Coweta county cam paign manager of the Hon. R. H. Russell. Such a fickle politicianer vat iss der dear olt Heralt and Adwertiscmentwriter alretty yet yes! The News discredits the rumor that Dick Russell has bestowed the name of Hoke Smith upon the young Russell who arrived at the Judge’s home a few days ago. Doubtless Dick feels that the name would give Russell, Jr., a first class start in life; but, of course, he could not afford to show his preference for one of his op ponents in such a public and per sonal manner. All over the State men and newspapers opposed to Hoke ! Smith are encouraging an insig ■mficant remnant cf the Populist party to refuse to return to the Democratic party and to put a Populist State ticket in the field. These fellows are loud in their professions of devotion to white supremacy, and yet, they are try ing by every conceivable scheme to effect a division of the white people of Georgia. Milltown.

They meet nnd practice church inusio for an hour or so cadi Sunday afternoon. It’s a great pity that all the ohurohes in town don't devote more time to music, be cause good music is the life of n church. •The ten' meeting is still in progress, and interest is increasing, but owing to the heavy rains, have missed u few ser vices. THE BIRTH OF WORDS Some people profess to believe that Dick Russell is a 22 karat patriot and that his candidacy for governor is based on double dis-1 tilled devotion to the cause of the j dear people. This view of Dick is ! exceedingly amusing to the people ! who know him best. They know 1 that Dick, like every other profes-; sional politician, desires only to use the people to further his own j ends and interests. Dodson. Miss Annie Newton spoilt a jmrt of Inst week with her sister, Mrs. S. G. Dukes, of Newuau. Rev. F. J.

Dukes, who has been teaching at West Point, has returned home. A WEALTH OF EXPRESSIONS FROM THE HUMAN BODY. Morr Than Four Hundred Word* In Oar l.anicaaxe Are Helated to the llaad Alone nnd Almost an Many Are Derived From the Head. The human body—Its limbs, fingers, toes, mouth, nose, curs, bciul and some of the Internal organs—has originated hundreds of words. In ona of the large dictionaries more than 400 are found related to the band alone und almost ns many to the bead. Index, Indicate, predicate, from s Greek word for finger, mean that which points out. 80 oracle and orator refer to what comes out of the mouth. Audience, audible, auscultation, the auditing of accounts, originally after 11 "bearing” of the officials, are traceable to the car. Spirit means the breath and Is also found In conspire, "to breathe together;" inspire, "to breathe In," and even In perspire, "to breathe through.” Impediment Is something against the foot. Ell, the cloth meas ure, Is the length of the forearm. The hair In capillary attraction means the power exerted through the cnpillary or linlrilkc tubes. The heart (cordis) Is to tic observed In a cordial, or heartening, drink; a cordial, or hearty, manner; the core of u 11 apple. Dents In wood or metal get flit'll* name from their resemblance to tooth marks. The tongue sticks out iu several words, like language and lin guist. In some countries anybody may rise by his own merits to he somebody, even to Hie “head" of the nation or of the church; he a head master of a school, head a revolution, take up "Brins” and prove to lie a capital— that Is, a headmost soldier and the chief (head) of tile uruiy. Corporal punishment is Bodily pun ishment; capital punishment Is pun ishment by decapitation, or taking off tIn* head. A corporal—(lint is, a cup- ornl means the same as captain that is, the head of a body of foot soldiers. A colonel Is one who has been crown ed. The commander In chief, or head commandcr, compels the chieftains, or headmen of the enemy, to capitulate— that Is, surrender according to an agreement that is divided Into capitii- las, or little heads, or chapters. A heady and headstrong ruler some times makes people wish he was head less. To make headway against Ids foes he may have to rush headlong Into dltlicullles or lake a header Into the unknown sea of politics. Among some I pics one with Ihc big head is likely to lose it. Under some the headship of the ship of state does not make head way lignins! the head winds of events or around the "cape,” or headland, just ahead, lie may plunge into trouble over bend and cars, and Ids opponents have to put tlidr heads together to head lilin off, so as to prevent a head- on collision with another iiatlmi. Some men halo to lie treated as deadheads at political headquarters or as so many head of cattle or as mutton heads or cahbngo heads, cabbage itself being from an old Spanish word meaning head. Sonic men “play tlidr hand" for all (hero Is In It. Sonic stretch out the glad hand to every one. Some keep hand in glove with those engaged in underhand proceedings as well as with those who have climbed to high places hand over lmiul. When the right man says “Hands off!" even his right hand man would not lay hands on what was forbidden. The clock hands tell 11s If we are beforehand or behindhand. A handsome man originally was one who used Ids hands skillfully and so was graceful and probably, therefore, good looking. Although every one car ries a palm tu Ids hand, people no longer, with palms In their hands, wel come their heroes. One may have Ills finger iu too ninny pies and trend on too ninny toes. One's chtrography, manuscript, handwriting—they are all one—may be rather coarse, hut Ills fine hand ts detected In many a public docu ment and so arouse opposition to Ills handling the funds. Tills might prove II severe handicap, which was original ly so called from the jockeys putting their hands Into a cap and drawing lots for the places that their horses were to have in the race. Footstool nuil foot rule sound alike, hut In the first foot Is the literal, In the second the figurative, use of the word. Though the politician put Ills best foot forward he may find Ids foothold getting Insecure and begin wondering what’s afoot. His coachman, mount ing the footboard, may ln> insolent; Ills footman, contemptuous; his chef, or head cook, neglectful, lie may be ridiculed before the footlights ns n social footpad, living a hand to mouth existence at the expense of the tax payers. Millie they are Insisting on his toeing the mark and he is hanging to Ills position by the toe nails, ns the saying Is, he may well wish he was hack on his native foothills. Were he arrested lie might he hand cuffed and fetters, or footers, pluced u|K>n his feet. He might not even have an opportunity of making mouths or showing his teeth at Ills enemies. He might in other days he turned over to the headsman, hut there would be no newspaper headlines proclaiming that fact. Only a small headstone might tell his fate to the pedestrians, or foot passengers, going by.—New York Trib une. The Height of Simplicity, “Awfully simple. Isn't he?" "1 should say he was. Why, it's an actual fact that he played poker wtth a stranger on on ocean liner.”—Cleve land Ulain Dealer. PENGUINS FEEDING. The Change That Takes I'lace When They Filter the Water. The appearance of the keeper of the penguins nt the zoo, with Ids pall of live gudgeon, is the signal for sudden and Intense excitement In the cages. The penguins wave their little flippers and waddle to the door, whence they peer eagerly down the wooden steps leading to the pool. The cormorant eronks and sways from side to side, and the darters poise their snaky heads and spread their hatlike wings. At the water's edge the penguins do not launch themselves upon the surface like other water fowl, hut instantly plunge lieneuth. Once below water nil astounding change tukes place. The slow, ungain ly bird Is transferred Into u swift and brllllunt creature, bended with globules of quicksilver, where the nlr clings to the close feathers, and flying through the clear and waveless depths with ar rowy speed and powers of turniug fur greater than In uny known form of aerial flight. The rapid and steady strokes of the wings are exactly sim ilar to those of the air birds, while Its feet float straight out level with the body, unused for propulsion or even us rudders and ns little needed In Its prog ress as those of 11 wild duck when on the wing. The twists nnd turns necessary to follow the active little fish are iimdo wholly by the strokes of one wing and the cessation of movement Iu the oilier, nnd the fish are chased, caught and swallowed without the slightest relax ation of speed In n submarine flight which Is quite as rapid as that of most birds which take their prey in midair, tu less than two minutes some thirty gudgeon are caught nml swallowed lie- low water, the only appearance of the birds mi the surface being made by one or two hounds from the depths, when the head and shoulders leap above the surface for a second and then disap pear. Any attempt to remain on the sur face lends to ludicrous splashing nnd confusion, for the submarine bird can not float. It. can only fly below the surface. Immediately the meal Is fin ished both penguins scramble out of the water and shutlle with round hacks nnd drooping wings hack to their cage to dry and digest. London Spectator.
