| ' LISTENING.
I Its Importance In the Art of Acting j
the Stage.
Tlie reason why lislening plays a j
| part of such paramount value on the !
: -tnge Is that if tin actor is not deeply :
| interested 111 what is going on In the .
' uiimie world in which he has been cast j
ue cannot look for any real iuterest 011 |
1 the part of his audience, and the on 'y
' way in which he can denote tlilit Inter- ;
! est is by the intensity with which he :
i listens to everything that has any bear- j
I ing whatever on his life
I and the skill with which he expresses 1
the feelings bred of what'he hears.
Listening Is an nrt that is not prop- j
i erl.v taught in the schools In which ,
j modern actors are trained, for while
i voice culture has the place of high
honor that It deserves In the curricu
lum of erery academy on Broadway,
; if you ask either teacher or pupil about
the still more important business of
listening the chances are that you will
receive 110 reply save a wondering
shake of the head.
So much lias been said about "tern- I
peranient," "mentality," "facial ex- I
pression" and "personality" that It is s |
very easy matter for a schoolgirl to;
persuade herself that she has in her
the makings of u great actress. Ail,
• she needs is what she calls u "few les
sons." I
One young wotnan, indeed, told me ;
that she had been studying the art of i
expressing various emotions by means j
1 of a series of contortions or visage, all 1
more or less hideous to behold, but that :
she had not been taught anything •
about listening. In short, although she j
had learned how to make her various .
I emotional grimaces it had never oc- ,
curred to her that unless she could
[ show cause for these curious expres
' sions of joy or grief or rage or what- j
j ever they were called In her "Complete !
I Handbook of Acting" her audience!
| would not understand what she was j
driving at. But if she had been taught |
, to listen with a natural interest and j
attention the emotions called forth by !
i what she heard would he certain to be- ;
j tray themselves convincingly on her
face. Like many another unfortunate,
' this deluded young woman had begun
| to learn at the wrong end and had been
taught the effect, not the cause, of emo-
I tloii.—Scrihner'u Magazine.
EVILS OF ALCOHOL
t
Gems From an Englieh Primary School
Examination.
A paper published in Yorkshire,
England, reports that some 6.000 chil
■ dren of Gateshead were recently re
I quired to do essays on "Physical De
! terioration and Alcohol," as tots in the
primary schools of this part of the
| world may now toss off brochures on
, "Variations In the Epithelium Oils In
i Invertebrates. Marsupials and I'lautl
i grades." These Gateshead children
; had valuable thoughts to contribute to
' the temperance movement. The l'ork
| shire paper goes the length of pub
| lishlng some of the gems brought out
in this outpouring of infantile sapi
ence. Here are a few of same:
"Alcohol is useful." says one of
them, being most exquisitely pithy,
"but not io the body. It is useful for
! polishing furniture."
"1 hope 1 shall never touch it until
I am dead," says another, and we wish
; him luck.
"A man who takes alcoholic drinks
| can see two things at once."
i"The children of drunkards are often
, weak and are sometimes troubled
with being bowlegged"—truly an lr
rltatlng allllctlon.
' "Those who take (lrlnk ure uot so
!iro:u] ehesled as they were 100 years
ago." How true!
a man Is ill the doctor will
sa\ ' \y-Mi a drinker of alcoholV
and If i: • ays 'yes,' the doctor will
say. "That is what has made yon ill;
yon have a fatty liver.' "
"The uiore temporary we live the
hotter It will be for body ami mind."
"Some people say that if you want
to speak at a concert you should take
11 glass of beer before. Yon should not.
it Is certain that It makes you siteak,
but you cpfvik a heap of rubbish."
■ When a innn gets drunk his brains
nil) not telegraph properly."
"I n ill tiuisii up with a piece of poet
ry 1 hu\e made up myself:
"Never be a drunkard;
Never touch the tjln.
Always be teetotal.

Livingstone's Vanity.
The Victoria falls of the Zambezi
river, lit southeastern Africa, form the
largest cataract In the world. They
were discovered in lHi>r» by Dr. Llv
lr.g.tone_Jthc great missionary and ex
plorer. and were fonud to be twice as
higli uiul three times as broad as Nlag
aru. Carved upon a tree near by the
initials "I>. 1.." are still discernible.
' and in Ids book the missionary con
tVsses that this was the one occasion
in his life when he was guilty of this
form of vanity. These Initials arc
■ carefully preserved by the officials ot
the British South Africa company, to
whom they were poiuted out t>y tlie
native who saw them carved.
His Present.
"What do you thinkV My wife's fu
Iher told me liefore we got married
that he would give me a handsome
present on our wedding day."
"And didn't he?''
"Well, I waited over a week, and as
he didn't mentiou the subject I asked
hlui for It.and all he said was, "Why
didn't I give you my daughter?"
