Harry Fumes In Ktrnnd. rnaltlnn of Woiid and 14a Durability. The problem lias trnublotl mnny why two pieces of wood sawed from the innic section of a tree should possess very varied characteristics wbeu used in different positions, l'or example, a pnto post will bo fonnil to decay much faster If the butt end of the tree Is uppermost than would be the enso If 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 it 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 a wooden bucket. Many mny have noticed that some of the staves appear to be entirely sat urated, while others are apparently quite dry. This arises from the sauio cause the dry staves are in the posi tion in which the tree grew, while the saturated ones are reversed. A nemlnflscence of Fannr Kemble. Fanny Kemble Is remembered by old residents of (lennnntown and riilladel phla as a superb horsewoman. Bhe had a fiery temper, which matched that of her husband, Hcreo Hutler, and Bpeed lly brought about one of the most noted divorce trials reported In the law books. In her youth she wns remarkably beau tiful, and In the role of Juliet she was the personification of dazzling loveli 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 sho was looking in the window of a bric-a-brac store nnd said, "Are you fond of an tiquities?" Mrs. Kemblo quickly un pinned her veil and, turning on the man her aged faro (she was theu seventy-three), asked, "Are you?" An AasrravatlnB Speech.

Lalando, an authority on the subject, states that the earliest almannc of which the au thor's name Is preserved was flint of Solomon Jarchns, who lived In the m Id do of the twelfth century. A primitive Kiigllsh calendar or al manac was c;tllcd the "piimc-staff." "rein-stock" or 'clog almanac." It was made of wood, bone or horn, about eight Inches long, like a square ruler. On this the days were marked by a scries of notches, every seventh being of larger size.

Sanitarian. A Cannr Scot. A canny Scot lived In a small settle ment some miles from tho neighboring town. The distance, however, could be considerably lessened by cutting through a large estate. This practice was accordingly so much resorted to that the owner gave peremptory orders for all trespassers to be turned around and sent back the way they camo. One time, however, tho Scot In ques tion, having occasion to toko some arti cles to town In a wheelbarrow, decided to' run the risk and was about half way through when hp saw the owner in the distance. Not relishing tho idea of retracing his steps, he bethought himself of n scheme, and, promptly turning the wheelbarrow to faco the direction from which he came, bo sat down upon it ns If resting. Soon the owner camo up and, seeing him there, roughly ordered him to turn around and go buck. As "back" was In this case bis ob jective point, the Scot obeyed and went on bis way rejoicing.

" Aa Bvperlenre tha Artl.t Had With a Hotlns; Conjnre. An amusing story Is told of the artist Phil Mny and an English conjurer at fair at Klrotford on-Avon. Phil was In the crowd which had gathered to wntcb a very clever gentleman who was wrap ping up sovereigns and half crowns In pieces of paper and selling them for 2 shillings. The "sharp" had a beautiful face such a face as Phil May loved to draw. So he sketched him furtively. But the gentleman saw him and mado speech forthwith. "If that there celebrlted porttit palnt (r with the tight breeches on will 'and up the plfter, the equally celebrlted benefactor to 'oomanlty wot Is glvln' away quids for coppers will reward 'im accordingly." be shouted. Phil, Willi a twinkle In bis eye, hnnd ed up the drawing. The conjurer was delighted with tho sketch and pinned it to the tailboard of his cart. With an other preliminary speech, ho threw three sovereigns, three half sovereigns and several half crowns Into a piece of paper, screwed it up nnd handed It to the artist. "You'll be president of tho blootnln' H'ynl academy some dye, young man," said he. "Here, catch!" "A bin-gain's a bargain." said Phil, walking off with the packet of gold and silver. He confessed afterward when he opened the packet nnd found two pen nies nnd a halfpenny in it that it was the most entertaining commission be hail ever been paid for. Men Who "Wer Literature.

Theoretically, every adult person of any Intelligence wishes to be strong and healthy. Practically, a majority of them wish nothing of tho sort They would like to be well enough, but are not willing to pay the price, though It really costs nothing. When a man gets out or health ho usually wants to get something to "patch hi in up" so Unit he can continue the foolish things which have caused his bad condition; hence the almost universal resort to drug treatment instead of the natural mentis of restoring and maintaining health and strength. If a man Is really desirous of being naturally sound nnd healthy he will try to study out the means of becoming so. These means nre all Included In the seven founda tion principles of practical hygiene namely, exercise, rest, nlr. light, food, drink nnd Im thing. Cooking Club. When You lliur Cheese. When you buy cheese bear In mind that nil good cheese will be mellow to the touch, yet firm. The rind will be of an even tint, elastic anil free from puffs, and a sample will reveal a linn, close, buttery grill n of n nutty flavor. Cheese which feels so hard that you cannot dent It with your linger tips on the rind Is either sour, salted too heavily, skim med or cooked too much. On tho other hand. If the rind breaks upon pressure or does not spring back readily when the finger Is withdrawn this Indicates an oversoft article, caused by the slack cooling of the curd or a want of acid. At best It will have an Insipid flavor nnd will "go off" as It ages. An tmnppreclatlve Listener. A well knowu lawyer whose first name Is James has a brother whom be visited lately.
