  Two-spin correlations generated by interactions which decay with distance r
as r^{-1-sigma} with -1 <sigma <0 are calculated for periodic Ising chains of
length L. Mean-field theory indicates that the correlations, C(r,L), diminish
in the thermodynamic limit L -> \infty, but they contain a singular structure
for r/L -> 0 which can be observed by introducing magnified correlations,
LC(r,L)-\sum_r C(r,L). The magnified correlations are shown to have a scaling
form F(r/L) and the singular structure of F(x) for x->0 is found to be the same
at all temperatures including the critical point. These conclusions are
supported by the results of Monte Carlo simulations for systems with sigma
=-0.50 and -0.25 both at the critical temperature T=Tc and at T=2Tc.
