We believe without a question Of
doubt that the issues of the Fairmont
West virginian on MONDAYS. AND
THURSDAYS affords tie advertisers
Of Fairmont better medium than any
other paper published in Marion
county, and as good as can be found
anywhere.

Why?

1t is because we have added our en-
tire weekly subscription list to these
two issues. The Weekly West Vir'
ginion is the Oldest paper published
in Marion county; was established In
1868, and has big list Of as loyal sup
porters as any paper published in
West Virginia. The merchant who
uses these two Issues not only gets
the benefit of the best local medium,
but reaches class Of people out OF
town who have not heretofore been
appealed to for trade through the COL
umns Of the daily paper. This plan OF
giving our weekly subscribers two
papers a week for the price OF one
has proved to be very popular and
our liberal offer is bringing in numbers
Of new subscribers daily. YOU GET
YOUR AID IN TWO PAPERS ON
THESE DATES FOR THE PRICE OF
ONE.
Now we are not making this asser'
ton in the way Of an idle circulation
boast, hut we present the matter to
ia thinking advertising patronage
as we look at it, and II you will but
try it you will find that you will even
tually think and see as We do about

1t is not far in the future. a noted
surgeon, and being noted it is not right
to not note the prophetic note be has
sounded. This eminent manipulation Of
the knife says it is possible to operate
on the human brain so as to entirely
change the disposition of the subject

is very exact in time. He declares that
so years hence, instead of trying men
for crime they will be sentenced, or
their brains will be sentenced, to I'M
dergo an operation by the surgeons
knife, and the portion that is found to
be the abiding place of criminality Will
be severed, and tile criminality will go
with the abiding place. After sever

murderous force that impelled the pos
SCISSOR of the brain to go forth and re-
duce the population OF the earth, be
will be thus impelled no more, but will
be as gentle as spring lamb gamboling
on the green. The thief, after removal
OF the part wherein dwelleth the spirit
of theft that commandeth, "thou shalt
steal whatever thou seeth when the
owner thereof is not looking" will be-
come philanthropist who would rather
give than steal or receive.-Ex.
