FAIRMoNT's SCHOOLS.


Few people, we presume, stop to

In Fairmont finds more than two thou

and women carrying books to the
various institutions Of learning in
this city. Some sixteen hundred go to
the public and high schols of Fair.
mont Independent district, nearly
four hundred to the First ward build
ing, while about hundred and thir.
ty are enrolled at the State Normal
School. Good courses Of study, excel.
lent equipment and strong faculties
characterize these several schools.
The Normal School faculty, headed
by Professor o. S. Fleming, is regard.
ed as one of the best in the State and
the school itself takes high rank
among our State institutions. The
High School faculty is composed OF
competent and scholarly men and
women, while the public school teach.
ers in general rank right up with the
best. In equipment We are fast ap-
preaching the point at which we shall
be greatly envied by other towns and
cities in the State. The local Nor.
NAL building is probably the largest
single school structure in the State,
while the ladies' dormitory, now un.
der construction, will be a great ad-
junct. The new First ward building
is already in use, the Fifth ward build
ing soon will be and next summer
will see the completion of our mag.
niicent new High School building.
With all these new buildings com.
pleted and well supplied with appa-
ratus, with able faculties and strong
school sentiment in the community,
our citizens ought to take great pride
in the school advantages here offered.
Our schools are among our strongest
assets as a city, and they ought to be
SO regarded.

Feeding Run Down Sows.

Among the many sows that have out
recently weaned their pigs, there are
doubtless some that show signs OF the
great drain that has been made upon
their system They are perhaps thin
and weak and they need attention, but
they do not need attention in the whole
sale fashion some men give it. 1t is
a big mistake to Immediately begin
stuffing them with corn, which in a
short time will make them masses OF
waddling fat. Their deterioration was
slow they did not lose their flesh and
strength in a day nor week, no more
should they acquire it on that scale
The best thing to do with the rundown
SOW is in sense to put her OIL feed
turn her out to pasture; and it that does
not provide sufficient sustenance, FUR
nish a little milk, bran or other light
feed. This will put the SOW into laxa'
tive condition and flush out her system
Later on some corn may, OF course, DC
fed to advantage, but it must be borne
in mind that the object is not to fatten
the SOW, but simply to get her up to
normal condition by farrowing' time N
the spring. Much better results would
be secured each spring, If more wisdom
were shown in the matter Of feeding.

First that one yonder. He went over
1t inch by inch until he came to the

opened 1t and peered inside, even hold

and Godfrey also examined the tube.
"It's empty"
"Yes," said. i've used 1t once or

last he gave it up, replaced things just
as he had found them, glanced at his
watch and went away. Now, what was
he looking for!"
cudgeled my brain.
II don't know" I said. II can't i'm
agine."
"Let me help you," said Godfrey. his
eyes shining still more brightly. II had
time to think 1t all out In the closet
there. In the first place, he looked only
I'm the outer room; in the second place.
he was plainly looking for something
that had been purposely concealed; in
the third place, when he examined the
room he placed his chair just where
Miss Croydon had sat"
A flash Of light burst upon me.
"The clippings" l cried.
"The clippings. Just that. I haven't
the least doubt Of it. And that explains
another thing which seemed very puz-
zling. 1t explains why Miss Croydon
was so anxious to rent this suit"
But how did he find out about
them?' asked mt last.
81 think they contain some secret Of
his, and he's concluded she hasn't got
them because she hasn't produced them
against him. And he's reasoned cor
rectly in supposing that il she hasn't
got them she must have hidden them
here"
1t was good guess; an adroit one.
"The question is," added Godfrey,
looking about him, "whers did she
hide them?"
