Copies OF GAME LAWS
are Being Sent All Oyer the County
by Sportsmens Association.

The Monongalia County chapter OF
the League OF American Sportsmen has
condensed the Game and Fish law of
West Virginia and had them printed on
heavy card board. These together
with l.. A. :. posters are being tack
ed up 10 every post Office and country
store In the county and in other con-
spicuous places. Two hundred fac
smile copies have been printed on
thin paper for mailing and are being
distributed. Anyone wishing a copy
can get it by applying to Elmer f.
Jacobs, W. N. Dawson or Bennett
White.
There is now surely no excuse for
ignorance of our Game and Fish Laws
and everyone who considers himself
good citizen should help in every pos
sible way to enforce these laws. It
has cost the local chapter considerable
money and great deal OF work to
have the laws condensed, printed and
distributed, but this is only part OF
the work it has been doing during
the nine months of its existance,
Among other things It has secured the
appointment of three Deputy State
Game Wardens for this county and is
looking for two more suitable men for
this position-one 10 Clinton aud one
in Grant district.
Attention is called to the principal
changes made in the Game Laws by
the last Legislature as follows: mol
person in any one season can kill more
than two deer. Non resident hunters
license fee was reduced from $25 toS15
and the license must be secured from
the State Game Warden Frank Livel
of Hinton W. Va, Instead of from
county clerks as formerly. Rabbits
and squirrels are protected from Jan.
lst to Sept. 18th.
In addition TO the $40 reward Of
fered by the National organization of
the League Of American Sportsmen,
the Monongalla county chapter offers
$40 for the convection Of any one OF
its members. 'Fhe League of Ameri-
can Sportsmen here and all over the
United States is making successful
effort to perpetuate wild bird and ami
NAL life Mt only for the acquaintance
study and enj 'yment of the present
generation but also for just heritage

Found Pearl Worth $4,000.

What is said to be the largest pearl
ever found IN America was recently
found by poor fisherman. Experts
value it at considerable ovsr $40, 900.
This was a lucky find, indeed, but if
persons who are weak and sickly will
commence taking Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters they will recover far more
precious possession than all the pearls
in the world, namely, health. 1t is
the best health restorer known to sci
ence and cannot fail, but it contain
only such ingredients as will be bene
fetal to the entire system. 1t will
restore the appetite, strengthen the
stomach, liver and kidneys, and cure
nausea, belching, headache, indiges-
tion, dyspepsia or liver and kidney
troubles. The genuine has our Pri-
vate Stamp over the neck of the bot
tie. Try it.

CORE

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core Of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

OVER 900 PUPILS
Receiving Instruction in City Schools
800 at Central Building.

Eight hundred pupils are now en-
rolled at The central school building uf
the city. Its not known yet what
the enrolment is at Marilla, Wiles
Hill, Seneca and colored schools.
1t is safe to estimate, however, that
there are at least thousand pupils
receiving instruction.
The number at the High school
building is larger than ever before.
The total number of pupils in the city
is greater by SO or 200 than ever be-
fore.
Every effort has been made to ac-
comodate the children, and while
there is not much room left, the pd
pills are comfortably seated and there
is no danger Of overcrowding.
Only about 20 pupils have taken
advantage OF the new Marilla school
building. Many of them show a de-
cided preference for coming To town.
The building was secured after con.
siderable work and money. 1t is a
pleasant room, sanitary and convent
ent, and one Of the very brightest
teachers in the State has been assigned
TO 1T. PaFenls should be glad Of an
opportunity 10 send their children to
