A SONG CONTEST.
How the Poets of Provence Amused
Their King and Themselves
in the OIden Times.

By and by King Rene came into the
hall and took his seat on the throne.
He wore a rich robe of purple velvet,
embroidered all over in the brig est
silks and gold; and after him came a
great troupe of troubadours and min
uesingers, some carrying their own
harps. and some followed by little
pages who bore their masters belong
ings.
AS the good king Rene looked at his
gay company and the brilliantly hung
hall and the long tables, his eyes
sparkled with delight, and his heart
swelled with pleasure when he thought
of the coming contest; for he was never
so happy as when thus surrounded by
his dear troubadours, whom he loved to
make in every way as happy as possi-
BILE.
Then, when all was ready, a gayly
dressed herald came into the hall, and
kneeEng before the king, and bow
| ing to the assembled company, an
nounced the coming of the two counts,
William and Reynaurd. All the other
troubadours and minnesingers stood
up, and King Rene smiled graciously
as the two noblemen entered, followed
by their pages, Pierrot and Henri, each
| of whom carried a viol bedecked with
long silken ribbons.
When the counts had saluted the
king and taken their places before him
he commanded seneschal to bear in
the prize, and so the beautiful collar
of jewels was brought in upon a silver
tray and placed on a carved bench be
side the king. Then herald stepped
out, and, lifting the collar upon the
| point of a fower-wreathed lance, dis
played it to all the company and an
nounced the terms of the contest o.
song about to take place.
All of which was certainly grea'
deal better and prettier than the Gus
toms of most of the royal courts O.
that time. In all the lands, excep
where King Rene lived, when the peo
pie wanted entertainment they used e
Catcher together to see contests called
tournaments, where noble lords tried
to overthrow each other with rea
lances on which there were no garlands
But King Rene could not endure sucl
barbarous displays. and SO in his palac'
no one fought another except will
pretty verses, and the best poet was thu
champion.-Eveleen Stein, in ST. Mich
olas.

snani.b for MHirh Life. y

The perversion of English words
when adopted by foreigners IS often
strange, as in the Franco-English
''biftek;" but this, if we may trust a
correspondent, has been far transcend
ed by the journalists of Spain, who are
said to have adopted slang which ap-
pears in the form of ''igili'' or ''gili.' .
1t is rather puzzler to be told that
the word is English. What is really
meant is "high life."-London Chron-
