Trees ON a SteepIe.

Growing out of the masonry of the
Catholic Church steeple in Biddeford,
almost at the upper limit of the brick
work, are two young trees. One is
upon the side OF the steeple facing
down Elm street, and the other is upon
the opposite side. They arc so high
in the air that they look much smaller
than they really are, and probably
very few who pass the church notice
them. yet masons who arc able to make
comparisons by a knowledge of dis
tances between points upon the spire
say that the tree upon the south side
OF the steeple is fully eight feet tall
and the other about six. Both are
green and healthy-looking, and have
grown rapidly within year. They are
beyond reach from the upper window,
and could not be removed without q

one is willow and the other a poplar.
