  <h1>Two-column article</h1>
  <div class="article">
    <p>When text flows across columns, a single line stranded at the top of a new column is called a widow. The widows property asks the browser to keep at least three lines together at the top when possible.</p>
    <p>Good typography avoids awkward breaks that interrupt reading rhythm. Pair widows with orphans so both the bottom and top of each break look balanced.</p>
    <p>Resize the window or print the page to see how line breaking changes in multi-column layouts.</p>
