PARTRIDGE AND QUAIL.
A Distinction Not Always Correctly
Made.

Attention has been called before to q
strange misuse Of words which has
crept into our southern speech since
the civil war. This Is the habit we
have fallen into Of calling partridges
quail" No one in the south, at
least no educated person, ever called q
partridge quail before the war. The
misnomer was imported from the north
after the civil war and is a part Of the
legacy which was left in the south by
the influx Of northern visitors of all
sorts during the first few years after
the close Of the war. Strange to say
many of our people showed a dispo-
sition to initiate the habits Of the north
after the war, including inaccuracies
Of speech.
It would seem that the standard die
tionaries, especially the Century, would
have sufficed to show that partridge
was the correct name Of the game bird
alluded to. The matter has been taken
up by the Ornithological Union Of the
United States, and it has, after exami-
nation, decided that the Bob White,
which we all know so well, is a par
fridge, and that the quail is different
bird. In the Century Magazine for Oc-
tober Of the present year is very in
teresting and instructive article by Mr..
Dwight W. Huntington, entitled, Field
Sports Of Today" In commenting upon
the various game laws Of the different
states, he uses this expression, 1.-THE
word partridge should Of course be
used instead of quail in all game laws.
Since there are no quail in North
America, a conviction, under the Ohio
law, would be hardly possible"
The Ohio statute made the same mis-
take that some Of our Georgia laws
have heretofore made and called the
bird quail" The last act passed by
our legislature on the subject, however,
uses both terms so that In a prosecu-
ton now the jury will be able to get
the offender coming and going. g."-Sa-

The human heart, that most wonderful
of engines, isscarcely larger than mans
fist. Yet in each twenty-four hours the
dual heart moves approximately SIX tons
of blood, equivalent to about two barrels
of blood per hour. And this continues
without ceasing from the first breath OF
infancy to the last sigh of age. Is it any
wonder that when continued extra strain
is put upon so delicate and busy an or
gan, it should break down? Is 1t any
wonder that in this age OF overwork
there should be an increasing number OF
deaths attributed to heart failure!
