IOei,sg the Mark.

A great many people are disposed to
lovk upon women as..delicate, ephemeral
creatures without courage or spirit.
Those Of that opinion never encountered
a grass widow. Now, grass widows are
peculiar. Their understanding of hu-
man nature Is varied and profound. Of
this class of individuals there is re-
markable representative In Denv r. She
got acquainted with a widower short
time since. He. contrivcd upon every
imaginable pretext to throw himself in
her way; but singulariy enough he
never spoke Of marriage; and this was
precisely what the lady wanted him to
speak ab'ut. So one day she led up
bravel, to the issue.
"Mr. -, it appears to me You lead .
lonely life, "she insinuated, coyly.
~ do, indeed" was the prompt reply.

stricken gentleman as the beautiful en-
chantress beamed before HIM, instinct
with life and lovelness.
"Why don't you get married ?"
The question was shot at him with q
sly glance from the luminous eyes which
took in Overy trace of emotion his face
night reveal.
"Well, you see, that is, WE'LL should
then lose the spice of variety the priv
ilege as it were, of culling the most be-
witching flowers" and the old gentle
man, radiant IN the consciousness of his
successful smile, looked boldly into the
face Of the questioner.
"These things should be mutual" the
lady murmured sadly.
"Certainly," responded the gentleman
affably.
But did it never occur to you, my
dear friend" said the widow, smiling ~
into his face, and VI ith the slightest tingt
n tarcasm In her accent, THAT yUl
would make but an indifferent nosegay
that you were a sort Of WI tEered flower

This was certainly not the least II ,tter
ing, and the old gentleman felt unea-y
under the very suggestive satire.
"The fact is" continued the artl, 81
woman. "you have paid me great iea
of attention of late, an,i ] was foolish II

At these cold, cruel, icicle-like word
the old gentleman shivered with appre

great beads OF perspiration started o
his brow as he glanced down at tn
beautiful face. rigid but serene.

WHAT GREAT BRITAIN HAS TO SHOW ~
THE WAY OF CROOKED SPIRES AND
TOWERS.
Chambers Journal says;--The most
remarkable leaning tower in Great BRIT
ain il that of Caerphilly Castle, dlam-
organshire. Being but between seventy
and eighty feet high, it is eleven feet
out Of the perpendicular. The castle 81
which the tower forms part was bailt
about 1921, and the canting of the tower
10 SAID to have been caused by an expIo-
sion Of hot liquid metal nsed by the oc-
cupants of the castle to pour on the
heads Of tn, ir enemies, at siege which
took place In 1926. There are alsO lean
ing towers at 'Bridgenorth Castle, In
Shropshire, and at Corfe Castle, IN Dor

powder during The civil war between
King Charles and his Parliament.
or churches with crooked spires. the
most noteworthy II the famous one at
Chesterfield, in Derbyshire. 1t leans six
feet towards the south, and four feet four
Inches towards the west, and Its height
| is 230 feet. So peculiar is the distorted
appearance of this steeple, that it Is said
to appear falling towards the spectator
from whatever point he approaches f..
There are several traditions extant re-
sDecttng this singular architectural de-
| iosWi'y. '(ue ~ budJ tn0 DuliuoI, ud-
tive of Chest erfield, having agreed to
erect church, did 70, finishing the to "
er without adding spire. The author
ities Of the town, not being satisfied
with the structure. appealed to the. At
torney-G GeneraI, who gave his opionion
that the spire was as much part Of the
church as the tower, and that conse-
quently the builder must finish his con-
tract by its addition. The subject was,
however, fully discussed at meeting OF
the Institute of British Architects IN
January, 1856, and it was ascertained
that the oak planks on which the frame.
work of the spire rests are much decay
ed on one side, which is sufficient fC
cause the divergence from the perpen
,iicular. The timbers al,o have tine ap
pearance of having been used in greer
and nnseasOued condition. The actio
of the SUI upon the spire would there
fore cause it to become crooked, ant
this may account for the distortion
without at,ributing 1t to design.
