west where timber too scarce to be wasted
on rail fences and where there were no stones to
be cleared. The wire fence has proven an even
greater boon to stock raisers, many of whom must
needs fence large tracts and who are not disposed
to quibbe over cost II they can get a fence that
can be put up quickly and will stand hard usage.
OF course the dramatic incidents of "wire cut
ting" days in the cattle country proved that the
wire fence easy to destroy as it was quick
to build, but of course that turbulent condition is
not one that has continued.
And while we are the subject of the wire
fence it may be noted the regeneration of the
wire fence has been one of the most marked
features of the present era of more presentable
farm fences. The treatment that has been ac-
corded many of the old wire fences reminds one
In its ingenious expedient for covering up old ma
terial with new-of the scheme so frequently
followed In coating old brick houses with a layer
of stucco concrete that gives them pristine
freshness In some instances ivy, roses, or rap
idlygrowing vines of one kind or another have
been planted at frequent intervals along a wire
fence-say at each post-and in a surprisingly
short time the fence becomes trells for a luxur-
liant growth that is bound to charm even the
most fastidious person and to whom a wire
fence unadorned would prove perfect eyesore.
Another present day ruse for making the wire
fence unobtrusive and yet retaining all its virtue
as a boundary is to have the fence a
core for a hedge. The bushes, shrubs other
hedge-making vegetation may be planted ON eth
er or both sides alternately of the fence and
In few years the presence of wire strands and
their supporting posts would be complete sur
prise to person who attempted to pass The bar
rier completely will they be hidden. Indeed,
a close growing hedge reinforced by wire fence
has a twofold value as a preventive of trespass
by man beast and many persons of wide
perience declare that it is the ideal form, The
hedge may be permitted to grow to any height
and there is, of course, no necessity for a farmer
to keep such hedge trimmed in symmetrical

O"n that ne wishes to restricted to given area
u' III lne old days no farmer felt that
ne could afford to lay out much money in
HAihs such limitations. Almost invariably the
pioneer or early settler in any community
was anxious to find material for his fences
on the place. This will explain the al.
most universal in our whole broad farm do
main of the old familiar type of zig-zag rail
tence And just here be it noted that 1t is an
admirable type of fence, too Cheap to construct

easy to keep in repair; substantial and enduring;
II ls calculated to yield excellent service. This
Is the type of fence that Abraham Lincoln con.
sructed and its fame may go down to posterity
through the rails which are treasured as precious
relics because he split them.
The early settlers in stony districts, such as
new England and certain sections of New York
including the famous Mohawk Valley in many
instances made their first fences of stone In
this respect they were in one sense ahead of their
times because stone fences constructed now.

Deen an extravaganza as compared with the rail

lection In many localities was that the land had
to be cleared Of stones ere 1t could be titled It
was no more trouble to pile the stones thus col.
iected In the form OF fence than in pile which
would serve no good purpose and 1t took less time
TO thus arrange the stones along the boundary
lines than to cart them TO some distant DUNN
So the average farmer working such land killed
TWO oirds with one stone, so to speak, and set up
fences that in most localities have endured to
this day

larly the barbed wire variety marked new era

She lived in an attic without AMI

One day she was sitting on thI

Miss Shaw with the proviso that shd
was never to know from whom ii
came. That was the only help shd
had through her course. She repaid
the money after she was graduated
and never knew who lent it.
But about this time she acquired
the warm friendship of Mrs. Persid
Addy, a widow. During the final yeal|
of her course Mrs. Addy took her intd
her home, and though the student paid
the same board she had been payingl
she had for it the comforts of good
home and the devoted care of Mrsl
Addy. Mrs. Addy had planned to cd
to Europe and take Miss Shaw with
her as soon as the latter should have|
finished her course. She died Just bel
fore commencement, but in her will
left Miss Shaw s1,500 for the specified
purpose Of taking a European trip.l
When she was planning this journey
Mrs. Addy's father said to her:
"Now, you will spend that moneyV
and it will be gone forever. Instead
of cash, let me give you two bonds|
worth $1,000 Then | will keep THE
bonds for security and lend you 81, SOD,
on them. When you get to work you'll

when 1t is all paid the bonds will be

She did this, and having acquired al
certain sentiment about the matter.
has done the same ever since. She
has left the bonds on deposit and let
the interest accumulate, and they
have paid the actual travelling ex-
penses of her three trips to Europe.
Miss Shaw took the medical course
because during her theological course
she did missionary work in Boston.
She found, to use her own words, that
she had nothing the people wanted"
They did not want either her theology
or her gospel. They wanted help in
their material lives. She took the med
ical course in order that she might
give them free medical treatment.
1t was as a missionary doctor and
in the slums of Boston that
Miss Shaw became convinced that
there were certain defects in an all
male government which called for po-
litical power in the hands of women.
She had always believed in woman
suffrage. Now she decided to work
for it, She began to speak for the
Suffrage association
and from that grew her national
work.
