A nemini.cence ofzranny Kemble,

A "Reminiscences ofTEanny Kemble.
Fanny Kemble is remembered by old
residentsof Germantown and Philadel-
Iphia as q superb horscwoman. She had
a fax temper. which matched that OF
her husband, Pierce Butler. and speed
ily brought about one of the most noted
divorce trials reported In the law books
In her youth she was remarkably beau
tiful. and In the role Of Juliet she was
the personification of dazzling lowell
ness. She was noted for her keenness
Of wit even in the days Of her old age.
Once when an impertinent street loun-
ger stepped up to her while she was
looking In the window Of q bric-a-brac
store and said. Are you fond Of an
hquitiesf' Mrs. Kemble quickly un-
pinned her veil and, turning on the
man her aged face (she was then sew
enty-three). asked, Are you?"

Position OF Wood and Its Durability.
The problem has troubled many why
two pieces Of wood sawed from the
same section Of a tree should possess
very varied characteristics when used
In different positions. For example, a
gate post will be found to decay much
faster II the butt end Of the tree is
upperInost than would be the case II
the top were placed in this position.
The reason is that the moisture Of the
atmosphere will permeate the pores Of
the wood much more rapidly the way
the tree grew than 1t would If in the
opposite direction.
Microscopical examination proves that
the pores invite the ascent Of moisture,
while they repel Its descent. Take the
familiar case Of wooden bucket.
Many may have noticed that some Of.
the staves appear to be entirely sat
urated, while others are apparently
quito dry. This nrises from the same
canse the dry slaves are In the posi-
ston In which the tree grew, while the
saturated ones are reversed.

No God.

The fool hath said. "There is no God"
No God!-Who lights the morning sun,
And sends him on his heavenly road.
A far and brilliant course to run?
VINO, when the radiaLt day Is done,
Hanas forth the moons nocturnal lamp,
Aud bids the planets ono by one
Steal DER the night wales, dark nnd damp?
No God!-Who gives the evening dew,
The tanning breeze, the fostering shower?
Who warns the spring morn's budding bough
And paints the summers noontide flower?
Who spreads in the autumnal bower
The fruit-trees mellow stores around
And sends the winters Icy power
To invlgorate the exhausted ground?
No God!- Who warns the heart to heave
With thousands feelings soft and sweet,
And prompts the aspiring soul to leave
The earth We tread beneath our feet,
And soar away on pinl0ns fleet, 81
Bey0nd the scenes Of mortal strife,
With fair ethereal forms to meet
That tell us OF an after life?
No Godi-Who fixed the solid ground
On pillars strong. that alter not2
Who spreads the curtatned skies around,
Who doth the ocean bounds allot?
Who all things to perfection brought,
On earth below, In heaven above?
Go, ask the fool Of impiOus thought.
That dares to say. "There Is no Godl"

occasion Of Judge Deas' promotion to
the honor of knighthood, Tho queen

no one will ever make him o gentle
man. Deas was quite able. however,
to hold his own, and he punished, the
wits when they came to make their
maiden speeches before him. 'Pris-

One often hears much talk about
the necessity Of keeping all utensils

Of pure air in the dairy, and nothing

Timely Poultry Topics.

Hens and pullets that are expect
ed to give a good report Of them
selves in the fall and winter pro-
duction Of eggs, says Wallace's
Farmer, should have been in per-
manent quarters by the first Of this
month. Those who have not housed
their chickens should do SO at once
and have them accustomed to win
ter quarters before cold weather
actually comes.
To accustom chickens to winter
quarters they should be kept con-
fined for ten days or two weeks.
After that they may be allowed their
regular runs in all weather that is
suitable for chickens to be out. It
has now, however, been pretty fully
demonstrated that hens having the
run Of small yards, other conditions
being equal, will lay more eggs dur
ing the fall and winter season than
allowed to run at large.
Roofs should be repaired in order
that the house may be kept dry, for
if the house at this season Of the
year becomes wet or damp in the in
terror it is almost impossible to get
it dried out. Precaution should be
taken that the roosts are SO pro-
tected as to avoid drafts, otherwise
there will be swelled heads from
colds, and these may readily run in
to roup. Making the houses snug
and warm for winter can be done
later.
During this month chickens should
have abundance Of grain and warm,
stimulating food. This will hasten
the moulting Of the old hens and
favor early egg production in the
pullets. It will also tend to prevent
the hens from contracting colds. A,
this time Of year molting hens are
subject to cold which may develop
into roup. Now is the time to feed
sunaower seed if you have it.
In making your plans for the win
ter, arrange if possible to keep M
more than fifty birds in the same
house. Plan to keep pullets together
and the hens in separate houses, as
the feed required to keep pullets il
prime laying condition will cover
J 4 the hens after the molt is passed
with layers off at which will reduc,
J, the egg production and lead to live
j trouble and other serious ailment
before spring.

To Convert Thin Meadows Into Per-
manent Pastures. q.

An Iowa correspondent writes.
that he has q two-year-old meadow
fairly well seeded with clover and
timothy, but not sufficiently, and
would like to know how to convert
it into permanent pasture He asks
what we would think of q mixture
Of blue grass and redtop. He does
not care to pillow this land hereafter.
First, we would not SOW redtop.
Redtop is to be commended in MIN
nesota and possibly j in northern Iowa.
but not in central Iowa and south
until you get down to western Ten
nessee. tits fairly good grass for wet
lands, but has bad habit Of getting
out on other lands and taking the
place Of superior grasses.
If we had that land, we would go
on it next year and SOW common
red alsike, and mammoth, paying
no attention to the timothy. Disking
will not hurt it seriously. If stand
is secured, Of which there ought not
to be much difficulty, this will fur
nish good pasture for the next two
years. Then, if we wished to CON
vert it into a permanent pasture, we
would SOW five or six pounds Of blue
grass seed to the acre, narrowing it
in after we had disked in the clover.
If there is plenty of white clover in
the neighborhood, it will come in;
| you can not keep it out. By the time
the clover has run its two years
course, blue grass and white clover
will have gradually taken possession
and you will then have a permanent
