was dance near Porter's Lake, in Pike
County, on Friday evening last, that
was attended by numbers OF the best
youths and maidens of the neighborhood.
They began dancing early in the even
ing and continued II until mo- ming.
The region is sparsely inhabited, and
the means OF communication few there
fore, those. who t'end such gatherings
frequently go on foo: for miles to be
present AZ them. Three maidens-Miss
Jennie Lane-Miss Cox, Miss Brink, aud
live on the northwest banx
of Porter's Lake, and to get to the
dance Iowed over in a small boat.
After the breaking up on Saturday
morning, they started TO return home IN
tie same manner, Miss Cox, the eldest
OF the three taking the oas. When
rear the middle of the lake, they dis
covered an object moving / the water
before them which at first they supposed
was dog, but which upon nearing they
ascertained 10 be n bi. buck. IL circled
round and round in the water, sure
indita'ion that il WAS wounded.

They drifted closer. and when within
striking distance, at given signal, both
girls brought their weapons down upon
the deer's heat. He sank beneath the
water for an instant, but when he came
to the surface his eyes shone and his
hair was turned straight tolward his
head. The CIR both struck second
time, bringing the oars down upon his
neck. He sank again, but coming up
sprang fiom the water and placed his
fore feet against the side of the boat
The girls had to use all their strength to
keep 1t from capsizrng. They managed
however. to strike the animal another
blow on the neck, which proved a ia a
one.

There has never been q scale in
vented that would weigh the influ-
ence of the country press; any meas
ure todraft.its dimensions must SAVIOR
of the character by which time and
eternity are measured. When the
country press unites in its advocacy
or opposition Of any project concern
ing the public welfare, that project
must either succeed or fail. Were
the Leader asked whether the city or
country press exerts the most influ-
ence it would answer emphatically,
the country preSsl The reader of the
country paper has an abiding faith
in the honesty of the publisher. He
knows him personally, and though
his logic may not be so torcible as
his city contemporaries, nor his arti.
Gle as brilliant, they go home stamp
ed with truth and sincerity. For
these reasons, and they are weighty
ones, has the country editor the
leverage whereby to form and bend
public opinion. Do not despise the
sheet, therefore, because it is printed
in plea or with patent inside; the
conviction that the words the coun.
Try editor carries to its each reader is
u prize that the city editor might
esteem of Untold value.
In this connectiGo the Leader can.
not fail to note the generous aud
whole souled manner in which the
country papers of this State have
rallied to the project of having
State fair. The editors of those
journals, with that sober sense and
patriotism so valuable in these times,
see that a State fair will add to the
prosperity of West Virginia. To
this end they give their good word.
For more than two years the Leader
has been talking up State fair for
West Virginia, and now that the
State press has so warmly responded
there can be "no such word as fail"
To the country press then, If a State
fair is held here next year, can DO
ascribed its success, For the many
favorable notices thus fur to hand the

Are Fat People Healthy
