A demented uegress Of Burke county has not
slept for Fl teen days. sleep is caused by
fatigue OF the nervous system and tie amount
OF : eep required varies according to agr, sex
and habtt. Il IS physiological and uudis-
puted fact that women require more sleep than
men. but much, OF course, depends on habit
Sleep is absolutely NECESSARY to the
maintenance Of life and the functions Of
life are supposed to cease when it is not
INDUCED within a period OF, at the maximum,

Valdo,ta Times: For some time the residents
on the mort side Of town have had their morn
ing dreams disturbed by the sound OF tiuklnZ
bells. An early riser discovered that the sound
came from nerd Of goats that made daily ex-
cursions TO that portion Of town. But the mys.
terry was that the sound, which at first was
faint and far away, each morning swelled in
volume. The bells seemed to grow upon the

Barnesvil'e Gazette: GAINESVILLE has added
word to the vocabulary, somewhat after the
style of snollygoster which has been so well
discussed recently from one side of this country
to the other. The Hon. II. W. J. Ham,
the great story teller, has created many
by this one word. GAINESVILLE nas a
word that will do to 20 hanc in hand
with it, 1t was probably coined by Crony
White, we'll known negro man of this place
The word is "hoggoRglinR. 1t, too, has its
political significance and was made 10 fit some
particular characters in some of the hot cam
pAiRns Of local politics Pike county and
GAINESVILLE have had campaigns as warm and
close as were ever known. 1t was during
these close contests that new word was
wanted. When Crony White saw one OF these
wishy-washy fellows in close conversation with
the "other side" after moses" had been counted
he would report to his side that he had seen
some "hoggogSling going on, and then new
work would be put on the "hoggoggler" and If
possible get him back into the fold. The word
as coined by Crony White has been frequently
used, and many times it seems very appropri-
ate "Hoggogglingn is a word very familiar to
GAINESVILLE, aud viii do to take its place with
the "snollygosteF. The "fnollygoster" NAV
be a very unique character. but the "hoggog-
Cling snolygoster" is far more interesting.
