TIE dUAINTEsT HOUSE IN ENGLAND
~ Howard 3. Newman

While cycling recently in England,
through what Is called the Black
Country" near Dudley, s-turn IN the
road brought me suddenly before one
Of the strangest specimens OF archi-
tectAilre In the world, rivaled only
b1sth famous towerof Pisa, Italy.
II was the Glynne Arms, a roadside
puty3fc house in the quaint little town
OF Hfmley. Locally it Is known as
the Siden House" Siden" is a corr
rnption of all aside"-f from the fact
that, 1t leans as far out of the perpen-
dicqlar as is possible fora house to
lean without tumbling over alto
gether.
1t has rejoiced in its peculiar angle
for many years, but 1t Is only quite
recently that the public curiosity has
been aroused in it. Now it is the
centre Of attraction for miles around,
md a .favorite place for drive on
holidays. 1t is about three miles

Made Z Mistake.

The tube car gave a lurch. The
young man who had just risen from
his seat lost his balance. The tube
car stopped with jerk. The young
man sat down automatically in the
fashionable lady's lap. She began
to shrek in this wise:
"You contemplate pup! / wish
you to understand that am not a
lamppost or piece of furniture to
be chung to for support! You have
no right to crowd in and tear other
people to pieces with your big, clum-

Misses Seven Gored skirt.

The skirt that includes pleated side
panels is one of the very latest that
has appeared and it is exceedingly
graceful and satisfactory from every
point of view. There is still the
close fit over the hips, while COM
Portable flare is provided at the lower
edge and consequently greater grace
in walking. This model is adapted
to the suit, to the separate skirt and
to the entire dress and to every sea-
sonable material that is heavy
enough to be made in so simple
style.
The skirt is made in seven cores.
The side-front cores are Tapped over

lance from Wolverhampton, and is
near Himley Hall, the Staffordshire
seat OF the Earl of Dudley.
The working of the Himley col
ateries is responsible for the extraor-
binary attitude of the Glynne Arms.
IN fact, the mining subsidences have
played strange tricks with house
property in the Black Country.
It Is said the house owes its name
to the late Mr.. Gladstone and his
brpther-in-law, Mr.. Stephen Glynne,
VINO jointly carried on in years gone
by an important ironworks in the
neighborhood.
The house itself is of very un-
pTefentious character, and is built of
red brick. One end is. supported by
large stone buttresses. Entering at
the front door, the visitor ascends a
pair Of stone steps into somewhat
wide passage, where the fun begins;
Tor this passage has been rendered
90 uneven that he who traverses it
hlrches about from side to side like q
landsman on board ship in storm.
After struggle the coffee-room
q reached. and here the visitor is still
more bewildered. The laws Of gravi-
kation seems to be an unknown guam
kity. A table stands by the window,
apparently at "a great slant, yet a

end runs rapidly up the table and
tails over the higher side. A clock
upon the table stands at an angle to
lks support, but it ticks comfortably,

A shelf in the taproom seems to

RUSSIA MAY SOON RIVAL
AMERICA IN RAILROADS

If ii is question merely of big
ness. the Russian railway system is far
and away the first in Europe. There
arc already many more miles of rail
way in this vast empire than iu any
other country in the world excepting the
United States. and Russian railways are
still only in their infancy.
IT is. Of course, quite true that there
are now 10 the United States more
miles of railway than in all Europe,
and almost as many as III all the rest
Of the world put together, and that our
territory Is so large and as yet so far
from complete development that we shall
probably keep the lead as far as rail.
way enterprise is concerned for a long
time to come,
But in taking these large views we
have forgotten that Russia is two and
a half times as large as all the United
States put together. with a population
more than half as large again as our
own; that in territorial extent IT is
more than twice as large as all Eu-
rope; that it stretches across the world
for 10 degrees of longitude--nearlv half
way around the globe-and that it in
cludes opesixth of the land surface of
the planet
IT is not surprising that in such a
country railways should have had a
large development, that already there
is considerable mileage and that the
prospects in this direction seem TO have
no limit In the future Russia aud the
United States are likely to divide the
railway empire of the world between
