wearlsome, variety vgorous. Deatlr is characterized by monot- ony, 1f e hy variety. Henry Ward Beecher said, "Men love variety when they are alive,"1, whenover there is variety, energy, animation, vigor and spirit exist also. It is the characteristic expression of naturainess. It is neyer associ- ated with artificiality, affectation or exaggeration. The normal man ap- proves naturalness. He detests unnaturaîness. Variety in public speaking, then, froni the very, nature of the cause, will stimulate an audience to if e, that is, to alert at- tention. How shahl we avoid montony ? We are so apt "to go star-gazing and step on a giow worm!", to look for some wonderful remedy and miss the reai one, close at hand. Whlen, in the communication of ideas, are we. quite natural ? In conversation, Genuug says, "If (conversation) is the crowning excellence of skilled expression." 1 have shown before, that such expression possesses var- iety; i. e. frequent pauses, changing emphases, varying degrees of pitch I and iengthis of inflection. Then, to avoid monotony or to secure variety the public speaker must adopt the direct, natural, or conversational at- titude toward his audience. Mnny speakers attempt to secure varigty by artificial means, e. g., by "reaÏsing the voice to express joy, lowering it tg express sorrow", and like absurdities. Avoid these af- fectations, as you would the plagus. Others, again, seek to relieve mon- otony hy loudness. Shouthng more- ly confuses. It does not possess the basis of real variety. It is purely physical. If physical force is to be used, to arouse the attention of hearers, it wouid he more effective to adopt means similar to those used by a certain spirited divine. It, is told of hlm, that upon one occasion, when a member of bis congregation feul asleep during the delivery of the sermon, hie hurlcd a book at the de- linquont, saying, as hie did so, that if hie wouldn't listen to the gospel, 'le would feel it. Hlowever, I only suggest this means of arousing hear-~ ers out of their drowsiness. I do not prescribe it. (Next Article: "Carrying Power of the Voice".) WILL PÀY 9 TO 10 PER CENT INTEREST.
