IS She Is Spoke.

Anecdotes of Brignoli are still finding
their way into the newspapers. There Is
one that might be added to the collection,
which heretofore has only had circulation
in indianapolis. When Brignoli appeared
there some years since with Christine Nils
son, the great prima donna was somewhat
indisposed. Brignoli, as is well known
never succeeded in learning English, and
his blunders in that, to him, unconquerable
tongue were numerous and grotesque. He
stepped before the footlights to apologize
for Miss Nilsson to the audience.
Ladies and chentilmen,' said the great
tenor. Il hope you will be easy with
Mees Nilsson, zis efening, ess she is a leetle
horse"
This was followed by laugh on the part
Of the audience. In some embarrassment,
not knowing what blunder he had made,
but fearing the worst. he corrected his state
ment by adding.
~ mean, Miss Nilsson she hay a leetle
colt"
The laughter that followed fairly shook

4he Commonplace Young Nan.

If the commonplace young man is no.
body's ideal, neither does he disappoint
anybody, for nothing in particular Is eX-
pected of him. But there is no nonsense
about him, or only such rs " is relished by
the best of men" He cracks his Joke as
ruthlessly over the aesthetic humbug as over
the corrupt politician he is an jat in
lawn tennis, m croquet, in eucher, orwhist,
OF billiards, in the de,er temps or the couL-
trv dance, in base ball or boating, which
make him popular at picnic, or party, or
country house he has views on all the
questions of the day, and does not hesitate
to express them without the least diflidence,
and apparently without the least suspicion
but that they are as sound as Plato's, and
hawlcss as the Koh--noor. In fact, he has
a great deal of conversation of one kind and
another; he can give you any number OF
"inexact thoughts" as Landor calls With
cisms, either original or culled if you are
a blue-stocking, he discourses Of books; il
a scientist, he quotes Darwin or Tyndall,
cleaned from the daily journals; if senti-
mentalist, he retorts in lines from familiar
quotations; :" he is not deeply read or he
would not be the commonplace young man,
perhaps but he knows a little Of great
many subjects, and has happy faculty, as
some people have in spending money, OF
making a little 60 great way he adapts
his conversation to his company, AID gos-
sips with those who gossip. He has some
notoriously good qualities; he is an excel
lent son and brother, generous with his
loose change, particular about his tailor,
fastidious about his sweethearts and his
company, not ashamed of his poor relations
nor boastful to them, nor ashamed TO be
seen on the promenade with ashabby friend
or a plain woman. He has no special con-
ceit. but he knows his own value ir socie-
tv where the feminine element predominates,
and acts accordingly. he is more or less
frivolous withal. it is possibly because the
world seems to put premium upon triyol-
itv. and discounts earnestness. He Is essen
TALLY the creature of the period and reflects
its spirit and nervous energy; he Is the
normal human being, not too good for hu-
man natures daily mood, with hearty ap-
petite and a correct digestion, made for do
nestle, homely life, for everyday wear and

the whims, the hobbies and oddities Of ge'

POETR Z.
There's a silrey Ltnimg to Everv Clou

The poet or priest who told rs this
Served mankind in the hOliest way,
For it lit up the earth with the star of bliss,
That beacons the soul with cheerful ray
Too often we wander despairing and blind,
Breathing our useless murmurs aloud,
But It's kinder TO bid Us seek and find
4 silver lining to every cloud.
Nav we not walk in the dingle ground
When nothing but Autumn's dead leaves are
seen,
But searching beneath them, and peeping a.
round
Are the young spring-tufts ofblue and green ?
Tis a beautiful eve that ever perceiyes
The presence Of God in Mortalitys crowd,
'Tis a saving creed that thinks and believes
There's a silver lining 10 every cloud.
Let Us look closely before we condemn
Bushes that have no bloom or fruit;
There may not be beauty in leaves or stem,
But virtue may dwell far down at the root.
And let us beware how we utterly spurn
Brothers that seem all cold and proud
If their bosoms were opened, perchance we
might find
There's a silver lining TO every cloud.
Let us not cast Off Mercy and Truth
When guilt is before us in chains and shame
When passion and vice have cankered youth
And age lives on with branded name
Something 0i good may sun DE tnore,
Though its voice may never be heard aloud
For while black with vapors of pestilent air
There's silver lining to every cloud.
Sad are the sorrows that oftentimes come
Heavy and dull, and hlighting, and chill,
Shutting the light from our heart and our
home,
Marring our hopes and defying our will
But, let US not sink beneath the woe
'Tis well. perchance we are tried and bow d,
For, be sure though we may not oft see II be-
low,
There's silver lining to every cloud.
And when stern Death with skeleton hand
Hath snatchcd the flower that grew in our
breast,
Do we not think Of G fairer land
Where the lost are found and the weary at
rest?
Oh the hope of the unknown future springs.
In its pure strength, DER the coffin and
shroud
The shadow is dense, but Faiths spirit-yoioe
sings
There's silver lining TO every cloud.
