Praise tor The Old Speller.

The old. blue- black speller remem-
bered with mingled affection and ex-
ecration, seems destined to come iato
favor again, says the Vicksburg Amer
lean. Thecomplaint is loud and grow
ing that present day methods of teach
ing don't make spoilers; that children
can write such words as "pyschother-
apeutics" and can't spell cat. The
blue-back was at least thorough, From
the day when. with tears and travail,
the young idea mastered lab abb,
and on through the gradual progress
that led past the touchstone of baker
and up to the proud moment when the
rafters of the school-house rang to
''incompressibility" the boy or girl
who learned spelling from the blue
back was master of the art. But If
the old speller is resuscitated we in
sist that it must be profaned by any
of the typographist, illustrator or
book binder. It must be the genuine
article, blue-black and all. No ele-
giant product of the modernFpublishing
house could have the same efficacy.

Making a Match.

ciation.l
Mrs. Hunniman's hobby was match
making. When Mr.. Charles Edwin
Lupton took up his residence in the
city of Mrs. Hunniman's home and
presented n letter Of Introduction to
her. her first thought was how to pre-
sent him to society, the second how to
present him with wife. She de-
termined to invite the social leaders
to meet him at dinner and to give him
for table companion lady, also a
newcomer, in whose social preferment
she took deep interest.
Mr. Lupton was man Of forty, in
tellectual, good looking, well to do and
of aristocratic mein. He had been
abroad for some time, and Mrs. Hunni-
man knew nothing Of his antecedents
except that he was vouched for in the
highest terms in his letter Of introduc-
ticn. But no one would mistake him
for anything else than gentleman.
Miss Oycrlander, whom Mrs. Hunni-
ulan designed for Mr.. Lupton's wife,
vas thirty-two years old and still q
beautiful woman. But Il friend of Mrs
Iunniman told some one, who told 9th
crs, that Miss, Overlander was not
Miss Overlander at all.
When the dinner guests were assem-
bled in the drawing ROOM Mrs Hunni-
man took Mr. Lupton's arm and led
him to the lady BESIDE. whom he was to
sit at table. There was something SO
distinguished in both Mr. Lupton's
and Miss Oyerlarder's person and
manner that the hum Of coaycrsatiol
ceased and all eyes were fixed upon
the couple Eoth bowed low, the man
made some casual observation, the
woman replied by an asserting ned,
the guests resumed their chat. and not
long afterward all passed into the din
ing room.
There is one thing that matchmakers
who are real matchmakers never do.
They carefully abstain from any word
or act that will intimate their inten-
tions to the objects of their designs.
Mrs. Hunniman had thus abstained in
the present case, though it had been
whispered among the dinner guests
that she had intentions concerning Mr..
Lupton and Miss Overlander, and dur
ing the dinner the couple were the re-
cipients of curious glances. The con-
.yersation between the two seemed at
first a trife constrained, and Mrs.

Masks Of. Night Riders.

Telling Of the Night Riders in Ten
ressee, Don Marquis, in Uncle Re
mus's-The Home Magazine for jan
uary, says:
"They arc both a military and civil
organization. The head is known as
the General; counties are presided
over by colonies; magisterial dis
tricts by captains, and so forth. 1t is
the policy to allow the younger men
mostly fellows between the ages Of
eighteen and thirty-to do the actual
raiding; while the older heads ard
steadier hands are reserved for jury
duty, witnesses, and so forth, in case
any of the raids lead to trouble in the
courts.
"The masks used are constructed CT
almost any dark material, with Sits
cut for the eyes and mouth; the lead
ers wear, in addition to these, a band
of white across the shoulders. Each
man has his number, and answers to
it instead of by name; while Oh an
,tual raid only the commanding Off
Ger speaks. In the Reelfoot Lake
district the Night Riders usually
added to the mask kind of bose
blouse, or gown; and some of the
masks were made almost like hoods;
but the practice in the tobacco dis
trict is in favor of simplicity"

Hunnlman was not especially eneour-
! aged as to the matter she had in view.
4 The lady seemed not especially at
/ tracted to her dinner companion. who
showed a trife of embarrassment con-
sequent upon her coldness, and when
4 shortly after the soup she entered into
conversation with the gentleman sit
ting on her other side Mr.. Lupton
turned to the lady on his other side
ard became animated
But at dinner party one cannot
! ignore his or her dinner companion
very long without being considered
rude, and Mr.. Lupton and Miss Over
lander soon found themselves forced to
entertain each other or sit in silence.
The lady by this time seemed to have
made up her mind to make the best of
bad bargain and ventured several re-
marks to the gentleman, who sat very
stiffiy beside her restles3ly lingering
the stem of his wineglasS and only re-
piled in perfunctory hammer 1t be-
came evident to several Of the COM
pany who were in the secret Of the
hostess matchmaking that Mr.. Lupton
at least was showing a sure sign Of
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. Then he made
some remark in tone too low to be
heard except by Miss Overlander,
whereupon she haughtily turned her
back on him.
This was near the close of the din
ner. When the guests were departing,
Mrs. Hunniman asked Mr.. Lurton how
assigned him for the evening His re-
ply was snort and an angry turning
away. AS Miss Overlander came down
from the ladies' cloakrOom she fe-
ccived the same question with regard
to Mr. Lupton. Delighted" was her
reply in tone calculated TO freeze the
marrow il the bones of the questioner.
When the last guests were depart,
ing, Mr.. Hunniman, who had gone out
to put lady in her carriage, returned,
with a. blank look on his face and
whispered to his wife:
MY dear what do you thinlz?"
"What?"
"AIr. Lupton and Miss Overlander
have gone in the same carriage"
For heavens sake! What does it
mcan?" iN
Nov, the departure of the newly in,
trcdaced couple was seen by two men
of the party who were starting for
their club. Moved by curiosity, they
followed in their carriage Two hours
later they returned to the Hunniman
mansion and called for the head Of the
house. He came down from his bed
room in pajamas.
"Hunniman" said one Of the visit
crs, sit is our duty as your friend to
warn you that you and vour wife are
being deceived There's something
wrong-very wrong-about Miss Over
lander"
"Oh, heavens"' exclaimed Mrs. Hun
niman from the landing above
"N'e saw her leave your house in a
carriage with Lupton. We considered
it our duty to you to follow them.
They drove through the park for an
nour and half, then to hotel, where
they registered as Mr.. and Mrs. G. e.
Lupton."
Were ruined" cried Mrs. Hunni-
nan from above. "I'll never hold up
my head in society again"
At that moment there was ring at
the bell. Mr.. Hunniman opened the
door and was handed telegram. He
read aloud:
Thanks for rouniting an estranged mar
ried couple.

Hayes, Shrubb, Longboat and Dorando
to Race March II.

The "big four of the professional
Marathoners--Alf Shrubb Of England,
Johnny Hayes, the American; Dorando
Pietri Of Italy and Thomas Longboat,
the Onondaga Indian-have agreed to
run a four corner race over the Lon
don Olympic course, 20 miles and 3S5
yards, at Madison Square Garden
March II. 1t has been pretty well I'M
derstood for some time past that such
meeting was being cooked up.
This contest will be the race New

tive ear. They are the foremost pro-
fessional Marathoners in the world
and far outclass all others.
Shrubb, the fleet Briton, is well
known to all followers OF sport. ard
his presence in the race assures fast
pace being set from the outset Tom
Longboat, the Indian runner is rated
as one of the best long distance men
who ever wore spiked shoes. and many
enthusiasts will have their money
down on the aborigne.
Dorando Pietri, who first came into
prominence by his near victory in
the Marathon at Tie recent Olympic
games, has won many races in this
country since that time. chief among
them being his victory over Hayes.
Although defeated by the Italian at
the Garden. Hayes is still popular
favorite. The game finish that en-
abled the stars and stripes to be run
up the fagpole after the sensational
finish at the Shepherds Bush stadium
has not been forgotten by patriotic
Americans. and the little runner will
toe the mark wi,D most of evvA
wishes behind him.
