married last year. but was sick.
We have been having number OF dis
putes over my fiance writing to a former
sweetheart. Last winter she became very
siok and her sister wrote and told him,
and now they have been writing ever
since. He has not told her he was en-
gagged and he will not write and tell her.
He says he cares for her only in a
friendly way and he worshtps me when
am with him. He says l shouldn't I
worry about her. l gave up writing 20
my boy friends for him and think he
should do likewise. NEWARK GIRL

an intermediate step in human advance
between the neoiithic, or later stone"

StonehenGe may have been erected in
the "bronse" age, while other megalithio
monuments date from the close OF the
neolithic. But II IL TO be remembered
that these ages were not simultaneous

They were stages of culture, and OF

in one part of the world people might
still be In the ''stono" age while in
another part they had Progressed TO the

day there are places where savage tribes

But the impulse TO build megalithio
monuments. or structures composed OF
huge blocks, arranged In a oharaetsris-
tic manner, seems 10 have spread IN a
very remarkable way from continent TO
continent, and the builders may fairly
be regarded a. the first real architects,
capable OF erecting permanent works.
Whether II was the gradual spreading
OF the race which first acquired this skill
that carried the megalithic style into such
widely separated lands. or whether the
fame OF their works. and the desire 10
initiate them. caused other peoples TO
learn and practice the new art is
question that cannot be definitely an
swered
But Mr.. Peet In his book on Rough
Stone Monuments and Their Builders"
says that the most probable theory OF
the origin OF the mesalithic monument
IL that this style Of building was brought
TO the various countries where we find
II by single race In an immense migra-
tion. or series OF migrations. and he ad-
duees the authority OF Dr. Duncan Mac
ksnEie In support OF this view.
Such monuments as stonshenge. then,
may be looked upon as examples OF what
man was eventually able to do in the
way OF building after he had emerged
from the state OF low mentality which
kept him confined for shelter TO natural
caverns In the rocks, and temporary
coverings OF interviewer branches. The
skin-elad man who first set a few flat
stones on edge and placed another on top
for roof was the father OF architec-
ture. and originated that great art whose
mightiest triumph was. at one time. the
huge stone circle at stonehenge.

GARRETT p. sERvIss.

The remarkable ruins OF Stonehenge,
Ensiand's most impressive manument of
antiquity, which were sold at auction the
other day for t5 900, are interesting, not
so much for themselves alone as for
what they represent. Similar monuments
exist in various parts OF Europe. North
Africa, the Mediterranean islands, and
western and southern Asia.
They all appear TO belong to an early
period Of human development. which
might be called the nsgalithio, or big
stone" age, with as much propriety as
we speak Of the "old stone," the new
stone" the copper" the bronze" and
the iron ages"
The term ''megalithic monuments is
applied 10 all OF these strange objects
and some Psychologists are disposed TO
believe that there was a megalithic peo-
pie, or race. which spread widely over
the old world at some undated epoch OF
the remote past, and whose chief oharao-
teTiBtio was the habit OF erecting rough
structures composed OF huge stones, in
cluding some blocks OF so great size and
weight that we cannot but wonder how
they were handled and poised without
the aid OF modern machinery.
At Stonehense for instance there are
great stones more than twenty feet IN
length firmly set up on end and crowned
at the top with cross blocks the largest
OF which probably weigh as much as
seventeen tons. English history is NOT
old enough TO tell US who lifted those
stones.
These monuments vary In form and
Arrangement. At Stonehengs there is
great double circle with an ALTAR
stone" near the center. Sometimes there
il only an upright stone or several up
rights, unconnected. Sometimes a broad
flat stone is supported on uprights like
table. Sometimes the structure is man
ifestly tomb OF sepuleher. and at other
times q dwelling place. Occasionally r.
takes the place OF a rude fertilization.
or q fortified habitation. In most cases
there are indications that a religious pur-
pose was served by the monument.
Often, as at StOnehenge, the arrange
ment OF the various parts OF the monu-
ment suggests that astronomical obser-
vatiOns were employed by the builders
In planning their work. and that the
structure afterward served as a kind OF
observatory for watching the movements
