MUST IGO.

Connecticut's stone fences are doomed and before many years these pictur esque features of the rural sections of the state will be but a memoy. The popularity of stone houses and the in- crease in the number of summer homes nave led to the utilization of the stone fences for building purposes. In place or the stone fences are miles of wire fences. When New Workers began to seek the country in the summer time connecticut became dotted with an ever increasing number of costly cot tages, for the construction of which stone was the best and most durable material. Then it was that the build CTS turntd to the fances, from which stone could be obtained without the labor of quarrying. Contractors went about buying up stone fences and far mers eager to realize on this crop that their ancestors had titled for them, found that even after new wire fences fit from the sale of the stones. Farm CTS like the wire fences, too, because they take up practically no room, and can be kept clean, whereas the stone fences were fringed by weeds and bushes that could never be moved down or ploughed out. In any other state the wire fences would not be un- attractive, but here they seem strange ly out of place, and to lovers of old time Connecticut the absence of stone fences will be loss that the hand some modern country places cannot compensate for.

The Alec Davey rocked in the soft SWELL
Every star in the universe seemed WATCHING
overhead So dark and yet so starlight; Molly
could never have believed il IL she had not
seen il. She was certainly having wonderful
adventure.
! 'I hope it isn't anything very seriousD said
Molly softly, your friends trouble?"
We'll, you see miss, there was a girl he was
fond of, and something came between them.
and-well he makes a trouble Of IT, anyhow"
Molly caught her breath.
People are silly to let things come between
them" she said
That's what say said the mate
But of course"-the girls voice was trembling
IF your. friend was all the time engaged to
someone else"
'lIe wasn't" struck in the mate; "only one
girl for him. ever"
But she may have thought he was" broke
forth Molly almost with cry. "She may have
been told so. That's what happened to my
friend, you know. She liked someone, and he
he seemed to like her. and then she found out
he engaged"
"How?" asked the mate
"She was told So"
well, never. Who told her thing like
that?"
"a friend Of the mans"
"And she believed it."
'She wasn't engaged to the man, you know"
said Molly, in beautiful confusion. "She had no
right to question"
"Well, l never" repeated the mate but il
sounded little forced. "What did she do then.
miss, if one may ask?'
"Oh, she just went away"
"And she's in trouble over it?"
Molly gave great gasp. The mate had sud-
denly moved-he was quite close. His voice had
changed.
"And she is in trouble about it, mss?" But
the word had ceased to serve.
Molly rose. Her heart thumped so she could
MT think; she only knew she ought not to be
talking like this in the dark to the mate of the
Alec Davey.
''Mollyl" whispered the mate And then every
star in heaven must have fallen. the darkness
turned to such dazzle.
ooh, it can't bel" she gasped.
'It is" said the mate
II don't believe it!"
Molly was laughing and crying together.
'Iookl' said the mate. He drew an instant
strongly at his tagging pipe and the red glow
showed up his face, free from cap and collar
Then he put the pipe down. Molly had to be
steadied, for the barge rocked

here?'

pictures-trying to forget YOU
''Tt was thinking of you"
''Blew you off shore" he finished.
"And you're not engaged?"
"Yes, l am-to you Oh, my darling, who
could have thought of this%'
1t certainly was the finest idea two lovers
could have imagined for themselves-a blazing
sky of stars, soft swell, and sleeping skip

"Jack," she whispered, by-and-by, ''when is
your watch over?"
"Not till the stars give out" he said, care
you going to share it?"
"I think knew" she said, "all along"
Not a bit of-it," laughed Jack, NYou betray-
