FAIRM0NT
Fair This Year Promises to
Be the Best Ever Held
Down There.

FAIRMoNT, Aug. 27.-Hke all men
who depend upon the whims Of the
people for the success of PROPOSE
ton, Secretary John S, Scott, Of the
Fairmont Fair Association, is close
observer. of the public pulse and is
always ready to attempt to please his
patrons by having at his fairs those
things which are mostly apt to please
a majority. Mr.. Scott, who has just
been characterized as the man who
the Fair in Fairmont" thinks that
the most important features of all the
West Virginia fairs this fall will be
the exhibits from the farms and the
stock raisers.
Bumper crops have prevailed this
season; the farmers are happy and
having money they will be anxious to
display their products before their
neighbors and farmers from other
sections. While the Fairmont fair
has always had a moderately good
display OF live stock, poultry and
farm products, none in the past will
come up to that Of this fall, if the
present indications are to be accred-
tied. The exposition hall will be
cramped with the agricultural and
horticultural. displays to the, extent
that we have been forced to remove
the poultry exhibit from the ground
floor. The chicken show will be a
monster, one exhibitor alone prom
Using to bring two carloads Of fowls
for the event The cattle. swine and
sheep displays will be SO large that
construction Of additional stalls and
pens have been commenced said Mr..
Scott.
There is no rivalry among the fair
officials of the state this season." con-
tinued the Fairmont secretary, "and
every one is working not only for the
success of his exposition but for all
of them, for. If one is a grand sue
cess, all will be as they follow each
other in such way that exhibits and
other features will start in at Wheel
ing next week and finish up at Park
ersburg month hence after appearing
in Clarksburg and Fairmont"

How to Perform This Ceremony In
Correct Form.
An old rule prescribes that two la
dies living In the same town or city
shall not be introduced formally I'M
less the consent of both has been ask
ed previously. A distinction Is very
properly made between formal and In
formal introductions. The latter should
be made whenever 1t Is necessary to
avoid awkwardness. Thus, II two Ia
dies are talking together and a man
comes up to speak to one of them, she
will present him to her friend If he
stays long enough to make the situa-
ton uncomfortable for the latter. II
he only makes few remarks before
leaving no introduction will be neces-
sary.
1t Is a mistake TO introduce q new
conner to a whole roomful of people.
She will not know which is which,
but will be almost certain to bow to
the wrong person. If she is a dis
tinguished stranger, whom all wish to
meet, one or two individuals may be
brought up at time, or the company
may form a line, each person being
presented In turn by the hostess or her
deputy. In this case 1t is not neces-
sary to repeat the name Of the guest
Of honor each time. since every one
knows who she is.

on the incline Of Capitol hill, in Wash

How to Prevent silk From Breaking.

If annoyed by breaking silk when
sewing, particularly In overcasting
where there Is a hard pull on the
thread, try drawing the fingers along
the silk from the point where broken
off to the end. Sometimes waxing
gives further strength.
Never forget to thread a needle from
the opposite end Of the thread from
where 1t is broken off.
A needle can be more quickly thread
ed If the eye is held over a white sur
face, and the needle itself is steadied
by pressing the thumbs back to back
while the thread is being pushed
through.
Be careful in your choice of needles.
Cheap ones never pay. They rust and
break quickly, and the least inequality
of the eye breaks the thread An en-
velope of thin oiled silk should be
used for extra packs of needles, other
wise they will be rusty when needed.
Such an envelope should be included
in the fitting Of every workbag.
