One of the most old-fashioned houses in
an old country town was Miss Greybrook's
A steep flight of Immediately clean steps
led from the pavement of the High street
to her hall door with it's shining brass
knocker and bell handle. On each side of
this hall door was Large bay window.
Just high enough to make it inconvenient
for any one to shake hands with Miss
Greybrook when they were in the street
and she was tending flowers in the win
dow. At the back of the broad hall that
went straight across the house there were
steps leading down into large, well kept
gardens, and these were inclosed by a
substantial brick wall that effectually pro-
tected the fruit and flowers from pilfering
fingers.
Inside the house everything was express
sive of wealth and solid comfort. Miss
Greybrook herself was regarded by the
town folk as peculiar, but her peculiarly
being accompanied by riches, she was
never made to feel it unpleasantly. In
person she was tall and angular, and a
pair of piercing black eyes that shone out
in vivid contrast to her gray hair gave hel
remarkable appearance. Her caps were
always high and her dresses shorter thar
anybody's else, and she made no change
for fashion or favor.

she stole to the window of her darkened
room, and looking out into the lamplit
street, watched quick walking figure in
an old country woman's cloak with a deep
cape and large poke-bonnet, such as her
neighbor always wore and she knew that
the young man had escaped in his moth
er's clothes.

urHANG1NG GARDENS OF BABYLON -
They were said to have been constructs
for the delectation of Median princes,
who disliked the fiat monotony Of the B1'.
Woman plain, and longed for something tat
might remind her OF the irregularities OF ~
ture in her own country, We gather ih"t
the structure was square, 4Oo iee' go "

feet and consisting of several tiers OIL arci:e'
superimposed one upon announcer. -
building was divided into as many ste'i'

these being uncertain, and was suppoFic'
nv internal walls of great thickness. IN
these stories were many palatial apartments
where visitors rested on their way 10 'no
upper terrace and in the uppermost stcrA
was a room containing hydraulic macl,h =
ery. whereby water was raised from the fi-
phrates to the level of the garden lts"i :.
This was superimposed on the upperm's'
tier of arches, and was flat surface com
posed of four layers first, one OF reeds MIX
ed with bitumen next, one OF BRICK. WORK !:
then one of lead, and finally thick layer CT
earth. affordiug ample depth for the roots
of the largest trees. The garden was plan
ed with trees and shrubs of various kinds,
and possibly with flowers, though they az
not mentioned. A spacious pleasure ground
was thus provided as an adjunct to the pa
lace, where royalty was secure from oosef-
walton, and where the delights of umbrage-
ous foliage, flashing fountains, gay flower.
beds and secluded walks could be obtained
at the cost of mounting staircase some
