These marks happen all over the place in the LC. They occur when the
last word of a line quite doesn't make it to the edge of the column. I
assume their purpose is insure that one doesn't think that its a
paragraph break. But there are different glyphs used, and I am wondering
what the meaning of these glyphs are.
I re-posted and rephrased my question as you have suggested.
