Those who bad missed an un- usually large number of words were made to remain after school and do anextra task in orthography, which was notin the least funny. Echoes of the spelling situation at the local high school have reached Grand Rapids, Minn., and below is printed a chalieoge to a spelling match, which has reached The Her- ald from the Grand Rarids school. Perhaps there wiil be more work for the undertaker. Last year Grand. Rapids challenged the Duluth school, buta contest was not arranged. The letter in regard to the meeting is as follows: To the Editor of the Herald: Hav- ing read an article in your paper re- lating to the inefficiency of high school students in a matter of spell- ing, and believing that a spelling contest is the. best method of creat- ing improvement in that direction, the school board of District No 1,’ Itasca county, begs to submit a challenge through your paper to the board of education of the city of Du- luth for acontest to be held under following conditions: Ist. That a date be agreed upon within the next thirty days, and that the contest be held before the close of present school year. 2nd. That the contestants be limited to three in number, and selected from the graduating class of the current year. 3rd. That the contest be heldia the Assembly hall Duluth high school, and a minium admission fee of 10 cents be charged to cover ex- penses of visiting school, all money in excess of actual expenses to revert to the Duluth high sckoul. All other conditions may be agreed upon between the superintendent of Duluth high school and our loval su- perinteudent: Inasmuch as therange high schools areto hold a general contest ia the near future, at Virginia, in which Graud Rapids will compete, we will relinguish the privilege of a contest with the Duluth high school to the winner of the Virginia contest, if desired.—G. K. REIS, President.— Duluth Eveniag Herald. The Art Exhibit. Attention of the public is again’ called to the art exhibit to be given under the auspices of our public school March 24 to 27. The pur- pose of those having the affair in charge was explained fully in our 1s- sue of last week. Briefly, the teach- ers and pupils have undertaken to raise a fund for the purpose of beauti- fying the walls of the school rooms with a few good pictures, and as a means to this end have arranged to place on exhibition the traveling art exhit of the Soule Art Co. of Boston. This collection consists ‘of one hun- dred and fifty artistic reproductions of the world’s master pieces, selected for their special fitness for school room decoration, and representing the best works of about seventy-five artists including such names as Bonheur, Corot, Gainsborough, Hoffman, Land- seer, Millet, Murillo, Raphael, Rey- nolds, Turner, Van Dyke, etc. Names that: are ‘sufficient guarantee as to the character of the exhibit. Referring to the exhibit when it was held in St. Paul, the, Dispatch says: ‘The art exhibit new in pro- gress in the Rice building, ‘ opposite the Ryan, continues to attract many visitors. ‘The street car company has granted free transportion to the school childrez, and different schools will visit the exhibit daily,” ‘This is the first appeal that our teachers have made for financial en- couragement and we trust: that they may not be dissappomted in their ex- pectations.

The all-pervading spirit of things visible'is one of calm, of cheerfulness, of indifference to the flight of time. The present is every- where dominant, with its most agree- able, face to the front. It is as if a. community of 300 000 souls, carved out |. of the midst-.of. our restless Yankee- land, had shaken of its more serious obligations and voted itself a daily half-holiday, This suggestion of leisure and ree- reation, says Francis E. Leupp in Scribner's, is intensified by the width of the highways and the multitude of open’spaces, inviting floods of sunshine. and pure air. Wherevér a street and an avenue intersects, they ‘celebrate their meeting by at least a triangular parklet or two, if not witn a more. for- mal circle or square. ~ Grass, trees and shrubbery revel everywhere in joyous life. Vines spread _ themselves wantonly over any wall that does not repel their advances till a common- place dwelling becomes a castle of liv- ing green with arrow-slits and a sally- port. Statues of the nation’s heroes appear at intervals. From this pdint the fiery Thomas, reining in his steed, stands clear-cut like a big - black cameo against a saffron shell of sky; from that, behold the imperious Scott cross- ing at a stately walk the arena which bears his name; yonder, see the som- | ber McPherson through an opening in | the grove whero his comrades have left | him to receive the salutes of posterity. And following with the eye any radial line toward the place where the river makes its great bend, one sees the Washington monument standing guard, a hoary sentinel at the city’s water gate. FENIMORE COOPER LETTER. Famous Novelist Called Europe a Ro- mance and America Hamdrum J Here is an interesting letter, in the possession of a well-known autograph collector, that, according to the Phil- adelphia Record, Fenimore Cooper wrote to his publishers in 1831: “I hope you will be wrong in antic- ipating a bad reception ‘for ‘The Bravo.’ 1 cannot tell you much of its reception in Europe, though Gosselin says it is very decidely successful in France. America is, of all countries, one of the least favorable to works of the imagination. In Europe, or, rather in England, where there has ex- isted a necessity of accounting for some success in the very teeth of their prejudices and wishes, it has been the fashion to say that no writer ever en- joyed so favorable an opportunity as I, because I am an American and.a sailor. As to the sailor part of the business, it is grossly absurd; for what advantage has an American sailor over any other? They know the falsehood of what they say in this respect, for I get 3,000 pounds for a nautical tale that shall celebrate English skill to- morrow. “For myself, I can write two Euro- pean stories easier than I can write one American. Why, Europe itself is a romance, while.all America is a mat- ter-of-iact, humdrum, common-sense region from Quaddy to Cape Florida.” Southern Chivalry, i “You ask if chivalry still exists in | the South?” said a girl enthusiastically to a friend with whom she was talking over a recent Southern trip. “Well, I just guess it does! “To illustrate, Tl tell you a little thing that happened to me one day. A suburoan train going out from Birm- | ingham was a trifie more than half | full; that is, there was a man sitting | by every window, and the outside halt | of most of the seats was vacant. “T got on just as the train was about to start, and I was in the act of taking a seat when the man on the inside cf the settee rose, and, crossing the aisle, left me with the seat to myself. “Presently he came back, and raising his hat, he said apologetically: “*You must pardon me, madam, for giving you the whole seat just now; I know ladies don’t like to sit by promis- cuous gentlemen. Kept Good Friday. ‘There was once a woman in Albany, prudent and cautious about the litera- ture read by her children, who ap- pealed to Bishop Doane for advice and instruction in the matter. They con- sidered and discussed many juvenile pooks, the Bishop either approving or condemning them as they came up for judgment, until finaliy “Robinson Cru- soe” was named. “Do you think it} suitable for my Tommy?” asked the woman. “Oh, yes,” replied the Bishop. “It Is quite a harmless narrative, and has pleased boys for ages. Besides, you know. there is some reason to be- lieve Robinson Crusoe was an Episco- palian,” and the Bishop’s eyes twinkled. “Indeed!” exclaimed Tommy's mother. ‘Why I never knew that.” “Yes,” continued the Bishop, “you remember that he kept good Fri- | day.” i Hobby of » Queen The principal hobby of the queen , mt of Spain is the collecting of | playing cards. She possesses a large | number of curious packs, many of which have no little historical interest. One set, made of ivory, is believed to have belonged to Prince Eugene, who fought with the great duke of Marl- borougb, and to have accompanied him. all through his campaigns.’ Queen Christina also owns some exceedingly | Arabian, | rare cards of Egyptian, French and Spanish manufacture, handsome feet.

When a man discovers he is no long- er pleasing to women he is apt to in- dulge in moral platitudes. In a rain storm a woman would much rather get her stockings wet all the way up than the narrowest hem of her skirt. A woman who disparages her own sex by holding up its foibles to public ridicule should be shunned alike by man and beast. For the hysterical woman we may feel a good natured pity, but for the | man’ who yields to the same weakness there is nothing but a withering con- tempt. BOYS, PLEASE DON'T— Tell a girl your private opinion about her girl chum. Grumble because the home dinner is not always a barquet. Tell your friends that you find more pleasure out than at home. Stare at and gossip about the girls while attending divine service. Litter your room with literature which has no place in good society. Arouse’the entire household when you enter the house after a night at the club. Flare up in anger when father tells you late hours are not conducive to good morals. Imagine mother cause she makes your associates. Throw the letters received from girls into a bureau drawer which never is locked. Fancy the world owes you a living distrusts you be inquiry regarding | which is to be had without work.— Philadelphia Bulletin. PENCIL POINTS. Youth and debt are the world’s greatest stimulants. It takes pluck to acquire fruit from your neighbor’s tree. Some men are pleasant to talk to, greeable to listen to. ars are willing to enter almost any house—except a station house. Many a man finds it difficult to in- duce his neighbors to have a good opinion of him. The man who pays his rent must | hustle and the man who doesn’t pay is obliged to keep moving. Take the conceit out of some people and their most intimate friends would | be unable to recognize them. Some fine examples of still life are said to exist in the mountains of Ken- tucky, but they are hard to find. EVERYDAY THOUGHTS. It takes a tailor to size a man up.
