STAGE STARS GET SCARED.

Few or Them Able TO Make Speech Be-
fore the Curtain.
AS rule actors are not speechmais-
ers. The very people who are always
easy and self-possessed SO long as the
curtain remains up and the footlights
interpose between them and their
auditors, become confused, nervous,
and often positively awkward whenever
they have to appear in front of the
curtain and talk to the audience in
stead of for it. The change ID their
manner and appearance is often almost
inexplicable. The man who can play
the most difficult of parts with effect,
and who can, In conversation with his
friends, talk brilliantly and wittily, is
at a disadvantage when he stands on
the narrow strip of boards between the
curtain and the footlights
81 don't know why it is, said we'll
known actor the other day in trying TO
explain this phenomenon, unless it is
because of the sudden and complete
change OF attitude toward the audi
ence On the stage we have our lines
committed to memory. The mental
exertion of recalling them and of doing
the rehearsal business keeps our minds
off the the fact that there are a thou
sand or more people listening to MS.
When we are called before the curtain
we are for the first time face to face
with our audience. Ergo, we get nerv-
GUS and embarrassed, and very often
make show of ourselves
There are few actors, however who
make a really good footlight speech
without minute preparation, and enjoy
doing ii. Richard Mansfield is one of
them. He is always ready to make
speech, and he does so without notes,
easily and forcibly. Mr.. Mansfield's
speeches are not often, however, the
stereotyped phrases Of gratitude to
which most actors confne themselves.
When he comes before the curtain he
has something to say besides Il thank
vou,'' and he says it without fear or
favor. His delivery is a little halting,
but he is always seIf-possessed, and the
pecu1iarity of his elocution seems to
add not little to the effect of his
words. IN. x. Advertiser.

MY sWEETHEART.

Her heiRhtf Perhaps you'd deem her tali@.
10 be exact just five feet segent
Her Rrching feet are not too small;
Her cleaning eyes are bits Of Heaven.
Slim are her hands, yet not too wee
could not fancy useless fingers;
Her hands are all that hands should be;
And own teuch whose memory lingera
The hue that lights her oval checks
Recalls the pink that tints O cherry:
Upon her chin q dtmple speaks
A disposition blithe and merry.
Her laughter ripples like q brook:
It's sound heart Of stone would soften:
Though sweetness shines in every icok.
Her laugh Is never loud nor often
Though golden locks have won renown
With bards, never heed their raving;
The girl Hove hath locks Of brown,
Not tightly euried. but gently waving.
Her mouth? Perhaps you'd term 1t large-
Is firmly nodded. full and curying;
Her quiet lips are Cupfd's charge,
But in the cause Of truth unswerving.
Though little OF her neck is seen,
That little is both smooth and slightly,
And fair as marble In its sheen,
Above her bodies cleaning Whitley.
Her hose Is just the proper size
Without trace Of upward turning,
Her shell-like ears are wee and wise;
The tongue of scandal ever spurnin5
III n1irth and woe her voice is low,
Her calm demeanor never futtered;
Her every accent seems to go
Straight to ones heart as soon as uttered
She ne'er coqueftes as others do;
Her tender heart would never let her.
Where does she dwelIf would knew!
