HISTORIC BUILDINGS IN DANGER.

1t cannot be a pleasant thing to live
ems to tumble down. few months
ago there were fears that the wonder
full leaning tower OF Pisa was unsafe,
but investigation resulted in reassur-
ance. For some reason new appre-
hensicns have arisen. The fact that
Father Alfani, the world-renowned
seismologist, has been engaged to look
into the matter would indicate that
what is dreaded is the effect OF earth
oscillations, which must be frequent in
Italy, says the Milwaukee Wisconsin.
But the pressure of the wind on the
ancient edifice Is the subject Of scien-
tifc measurement. and Father Alfani
has constructed an instrument by
which the minutest influence can be
ascertained. The Bank of England Is
a modern structure compared with
Pisas leaning tower. but the "Old
Lady Of Threadneedle street." as the
bank is affectionately named by Lon
doners, was constructed upon wooden
piles. and these have shrunk away,
leaving space of several inches be-
tween them. 1t was the rotting OF the
piling beneath II that caused the fall
OF the Canpanile at Venice. The piles
under the Bank Of England are being
removed and a six-foot raft of con
crete II superceding them The "Old
Lady's" position was, no doubt, peril

every dairyman can get clean milk in

statement should prove Interesting to
those who lay so much stress on

Sarah

My goodness, said everybody
when Sarah Seaney made her appear
ance at the summer resort hotel.
People had said MY goodness! at
Sarah Seaney SO many times In her
eighteen years OF existence that she
had grown used to the remark. The
only real bright spot in the situation
was that her parents had not named
her Lily or nicknamed her Tiny In her
helpless infancy.
Sarah was large OF bone and nearly
six feet tall. 1t was her amazing
length and broadness and massiveness
which startled people into alarmed
comment. In spite OF her prominent
cheekbones and expansive mouth,
Sarah's face. 1t may have been its
healthy freshness and the brightness
OF her eyes. which held q perpetual
laugh at the world In general 1t took
the older people to appreciate this. for
those Of her own age looked at Sarah
and, because she was so different from
the stock pattern, declared she was
Impossible.

out the girls whose heads came only

Idea. Sarah, in her yards and yards
OF expensive lingerie gown. sat out
the waltzes and two-steps beside her
mother. beaming pleasantly and APP
parently enjoying herself hugely. The
girls took this as direct affront They
said Sarah was so masculine"
Further, she had an irritating habit
of going on long walks by herself and
returning with armfuls of wild field
flowers and cheerful countenance.
Her practical ostracism seemed not to
make the remotest impression upon
her.

Lancy Cobb, the only young man
whose eyes were not on a lower level
than Sarah's, tried to break the boy
colt. When the girls set their faces
against asking her to the beach picnic
he was indignant and tried to make 1t
up to Sarah by talking to her She
regarded him interestedly, smiled a
little and did not seem impressed. But
she was very pleasant to Lancy after
that.
Il like that grill" he told the others
why don't you drag her In instead of
shelving her?"
Agnes Simmons set her rosebud
mouth in straight line at this. Agnes
was built on the Dresden china pat
ern and Lancy had been her special
property. She was dainty and fragile
enough to allure migAtily and this
revelation of the unexpected tangents
taken by men both surprised and an
gered her. The anger was all directed
at Sarah Seaney
Agnes was reused to active defense
late one evening when the crowd
wandering out on the end of the pier
after the dance, found Sarah Seaney
occupying the best bench alone and
gazing appreciatively at the big. full
moon shining across the lake. She
spoke to the others quite as though
they were her dearest friends. in
stead Of persons who had perpetually
snubbed her.
Isn't the water lovely with that
simmer upon it," she asked.
"Great!" agreed Lancy Cobb, sit
ting down on the bench beside her.
If you like It SO we'll" Agnes Sim
mons said to Sarah, with instant re-
bellion in her heart. why don't you
take moonlight swim?"
Agnes could swim half mile and
was proud of it,
Sarah smiled at Agnes silently She
was on her feet by now, for she would
not seem to appropriate Lancy. "Oh,
don't know she answered. medi-
tauvely watching the ,glistening
waves.
Go on" Agnes tainted sweeuy.
She might have been lovingly urging
Sarah to help herself to chocolates.
IL dare you to jump in-nowl"
A little silence fell on the rest.
Sarah, like those who had danced,
was clad in expensive and fragile
clothes. She gave Agnes long look
A little of her happy expression faded
as she understood the antagonistic
gaze that was fixed upon her.
Would you do IT." she asked quiet
ly.
Agnes laughed. "Oh. I'm not afraid

condescension. Il swim, you know. |
