Ju s t then the warning bell rang, and the grade prepared to march out for intermission. Soon little groups m et here and there in ‘ the yard, all eagerly discussing that mysterious pair of skates. They had bean offered by Dr. Co il a n t that morning to the boy who should spell cdrrectly, in a given tim e, the largest number of practical wonts used in every day life. The test was to be given by the doctor himself a week from the following Friday. Great excitement prevailed; for there was a strong spirit of rivalry among the X-gvade boys, who were divided into two factions, led respec tively by Bennie Nororose and Dick Atkins. Besides, the skates were a “ Jim -dandy” pair, as Bennie declared to his chum, Ted Stone—and justly, too; for Dr. Conaut, who uever did anything by halves, had purchased the dnest pair that could be found in the large manufacturing city where skates were made. “ Anyway, it lies betweei yon and Dick Atkins, old man,” declared Ted, positively, that night, as they sat dis cussing the matter in the Norcross sit ting-room. “ Ton two are the best spellers; the rest of us fellows don’t BtSlfl'tSe.ghoat of a chauce. And, b e sides, we want you to get them, any how! See how Diok Atkins got the prize in declamation from yon last spring, and just because Dr. Downing, one of the judges, was a relative of his. I'd like to see any one spell for him now, though!\ The friends of both boys felt confi dent of their own leader’s success, and hardly considered the thunght’of try ing for the prize themselves. “ Of course, we'll go through the form; but, when it comes to our g e t ting the skates, we won’t bo th e r e — not even if we boys, laughingly. Thehe fathersathers anund mriend e n u ss otf thehe boys,oy in all professions, were consulted for their opinion as to the most practical words in every-day use, and in this way both Bennie and Dick received much valuable “ coaching” from their eager followers. “ I hope I shall get them —they’re such beauties! But, then, I ’d rather beat Dick Atkins than have all the skates in the world,\ was Bennie's frequent soliloquy d u ring that anxious ’Twas Thursday afternoon. “ Well, to-morrow's almost here,\ thought Bennie to himself, as he en tered the postofiice for the five o'clock mail. There, before the letter-box, stood Dr. Conaut. In taking a 'etter from hie pocket to post, n scrap Of paper slipped out with it and fell to the floor unnoticed. Aa Bennie stepped to the delivery window, after the doctor had gone, his foot ehaneed to touch the paper. He stooped and picked it up. U n folding it, he found ------ “ I t's the list of test words for to morrow!* he whispered, excitedly. \ I t is? It is! Now, Mr. Dick, we ll eee!\ Bennie took his mail and hurriedly left the office. As ho turned into s leaa busy street, he stopped and cau tiously unfolded the bit of paper again. Surely, there could be no mistake! It contained the words for j glasses levelled, to-morrow’s trial. ' “‘There Tl»— *■ morning, as heart, took strapped together, and prepared leave the house. “ Thank you, m o ther,\ lie answered, quietly. The next moment dour closed aud he was gone. Ted met him a block away. “ Why, what’s the matter, old man?” she exclaimed, giv ing him a friendly alap on the shoul der. “ C heer up! You’ll come in ahead with fiyiug colors this time. There’s no Dr. Downing in thik case!’’ Bennie tried to smile, but his at- was a miserable failure, ve a good mind not to take it,\ be said to himself, as his chain left him to do an errand across the street. “ But then I m u st beat Dick Atkins aud I can do it this tim e!\ Just after the opening exercises Dr. Conant entered the schoolroom, car rying under his arm a n eatly done up paper parcel. All eyes turned to Bennie end Dick. Bennie's heart beat wildly, while tc its throbbing a voice w ithin seemed tc be keeping time with: “ Can’t— —spell—thief? 'Course you can; that's yon. You can spell yourself, can't you?\ Slowly Dr. Conant pronounced the first word—how anxiously Beanie was listening for it!— “ b u s iness.” “ He's got another list,” happily thought Bennie to himself. “ Ob good!” But no. The next word was “ scouu drel,” and from that on the list was exactly the same as the one Bennie had found and etndied. After he hail written the fifth word, he looked up from his paper. Ted met bis gaze with an assuring smile. Bennie’e face flushed. “ What if he knew!\ he thought. Wheu the test was over, with o sigh of relief. Bennie folded his papei aud hurried from the room. “ How'dow’d youou make it?” asked the they gathered ‘W asn’t it a sticker, though'” “ Was it?” answered Bennie, eva sively. “ I think, perhaps, I got most of them right.” At the close of the afternoon session Dr. Conant was to award the prize. How slowly the hours seemed to pass! At length, however, the exercises for the day were over, and Dr. Conant entered. An air of expectancy tilled the room. Bennie's face paled slightly. “‘♦Spelling Spelli _ art among the boys aud girls of the present generation,\ began Dr. Con- land, China and Cuba.
