OFFICE UP STAIRS IN THE WILCOXON BLOG William Travers Jerome, l)is trict Attorney of New York, will he the guest of honor and deliver the annual address at the conven tion of the Georgia Mar Associa tton, which will he held July iH, 19 and 2o, at Warm Springs. Uncle Joe 11 a 11 announces with characteristic joehillhall emphasis that he cannot support any of the present candidates lor governor It is suspected in some quarters that Uncle Joe’s personal prefer enccs in this connection would lead him to give hearty support to a certain I .egislator from the conn ty ol Mibb, il that gentium.01 could be induced to olfei as a guherna torial candidate. Alter today only 46 days of tin g ibernatorial campaign are ahead ol us. Thu opposition to llokc Smith realizes that the primary is drawing near, that all schemes to defeat lorn thus tar planned have proven failures, and that it is time to begin the last desperate assault on the candidate ol the people and the people behind him. In proof of this last mentioned tact, witness the unlimbering of anti-Smith guns all along the line and the marshalling in battle array ol every man who can be used against Smith. Newspapers like the Alt gusta Chronicle,that have assumed u semblance ol neutrality for sev eral months past, have trained their mud butteries on I hike Smith,,and all along the line he is the target for volleys ol misrepre sentation, personal abuse and rot ten nonsense. All of which merely indicates that Hoke Smith has the opposition whipped and driven to the last stages of desperation. THE RAILROAD RATE BILL.

It 1h well known, guys tbe New York Evening Post, that F'runklln made a particular study of colds and bud bis own theory about them, whleli we be lieve Is pretty much the theory of to- duy. One of bis assertions was that catching cold does not come from mere cold, but from unequal temperature over tbe body and from undistributed moisture. To prove this he made a number of observations on occasions when I10 did nnd did not suffer. A few of these follow: By putting on a damp shirt on a dry body—yes. By putting on a dry shirt on n wet body, though this wets the body ten times more—no. By sitting In a room where the floor hah been newly washed—yes. By going Into n river and staying there an hour (no sheets so weti—no. By wetting t#e feet only—yes. By wetting all the clothes through the body and wearing them a whole day—no. By sitting In a room against a crevice —yes. By sitting as long In the open air— Heir Cynnltle Wm niseeveretl. Rcheele In 17R.'t laid the foundations for the manufacture of cyanide of po tassium. With prusslnte of potash for Its base, dried animal matter of any and all kinds was dumped Into the su perheated vessels containing the pot ash. together with Iron tilings and bor ings. A stonellke black mass resulted from the cooling, and other processes brought the (tun 1 lemon colored crys tals which resulted from evaporations of the solutions. From these crystals prussic add was evolved, of which n 2 per cent solution Is the pharmaceu tical preparation, yet so powerful that four drops will kill a large dog. A chemist, putting a cyanide solution In a gold lined dish In 18-l-t, discovered that the gold was dissolved In the liquid. This was the beginning of the gold plating process by the use of cya nide and the further Involvement of the poison came about In electroplat ing.

POTTS <3 PARKS Phone 109 Bay Street Newnan, Ga. e South Hen Inland ('uitonii, When a south sea Island mother wishes to chastise her child she seldom resorts to slapping, and slippers, of course, she has none. Instead of using tin' forms of punishment customary among civilized mothers she pulls the child's hair or bites some part of the body, generally the fleshy part of the arm. Iu wandering about the village one sees many children having on their bodies sears produced by wounds In flicted by their mothers’ teeth. When a mother wishes to caress her child she deftly draws her thumb across Its eyebrow or cheek or gently seizes its cheek between her teeth. The rubbing of noses is also a mark of affection among the Klngsmill islanders, as It Is among the Maoris of New Zealand. BANKRUPT SALE Hot Soda ItntliM.
