TRODUCTION

e most powerful and the most perfect expression of thought and feeling through the medium oguage must be traced to the mastery of words. Nothing is better suited to lead speakers and reEnglish into an easy control of this language than the command of the phrase that per

presses the thought. Every speaker’s aim is to be heard and understood. A clear, crisp articulds an audience as by the spell of some irresistible power. The choice word, the correct phrastruments that may reach the heart, and awake the soul if they fall upon the ear in melo

dence; but if the utterance be harsh and discordant they fail to interest, fall upon deaf ears, anbarren as seed sown on fallow ground. In language, nothing conduces so emphatically t

rmony of sounds as perfect phrasing—that is, the emphasizing of the relation of clause to cd of sentence to sentence by the systematic grouping of words. The phrase consists usually of rds which denote a single idea that forms a separate part of a sentence. In this respect it dm the clause, which is a short sentence that forms a distinct part of a composition, paragrap

course. Correct phrasing is regulated by rests, such rests as do not break the continuity of a ththe progress of the sense.

RENVILLE KLEISER, who has devoted years of his diligent life to imparting the art of cpression in speech and writing, has provided many aids for those who would know not merelysay, but how to say it. He has taught also what the great HOLMES taught, that language is a tewhich the human soul is enshrined, and that it grows out of life—out of its joys and its sorrowrdens and its necessities. To him, as well as to the writer, the deep strong voice of man and theeet voice of woman are never heard at finer advantage than in the earnest but mellow ton

miliar speech. In the present volume Mr. Kleiser furnishes an additional and an exceptional ase who would have a mint of phrases at their command from which to draw when in need oden mean for expressing thought. Few indeed are the books fitted to-day for the purpoparting this knowledge, yet two centuries ago phrase-books were esteemed as supplements ttionaries, and have not by any manner of means lost their value. The guide to familiar quotaindex to similes, the grammars, the readers, the machine-made letter-writer of mechan

rfect letters of congratulation or condolence—none are sententious enough to supply the neecompilation of this praxis, Mr. Kleiser has not only supplied it, but has furnished a means fo

rease of one’s vocabulary by practical methods. There are thousands of persons who may pro

systematic study of such a book as this if they will familiarize themselves with the autrpose by a careful reading of the preliminary pages of his book. To speak in public pleasingldily and to read well are accomplishments acquired only after many days, weeks even, of pra

reigners sometimes reproach us for the asperity and discordance of our speech, and in generaroach is just, for there are many persons who do scanty justice to the vowel-elements oguage. Although these elements constitute its music they are continually mistreated. We flirt

d pirouette around them constantly. If it were not so, English would be found full of beautyrmony of sound. Familiar with the maxim, “Take care of the vowels and the consonants wille of themselves,”—a maxim that when put into practise has frequently led to the breaking-dow



wel values—the writer feels that the common custom of allowing “the consonants to take camselves” is pernicious. It leads to suppression or to imperfect utterance, and thus pro

distinct articulation.

e English language is so complex in character that it can scarcely be learned by rule, and canmastered by the study of such idioms and phrases as are provided in this book; but just as

ust be taken to place every accent or stress on the proper syllable in the pronouncing of every ontains, so must the stress or emphasis be placed on the proper word in every sentence spoken

d or speak pleasingly one should resort to constant practise by doing so aloud in privateferably, in the presence of such persons as know good reading when they hear it and are mast

melody of sounds. It was Dean Swift’s belief that the common fluency of speech in many menst women was due to scarcity of matter and scarcity of words. He claimed that a mastguage possessed a mind full of ideas, and that before speaking, such a mind paused to sele

oice word—the phrase best suited to the occasion. “Common speakers,” he said, “have only oideas, and one set of words to clothe them in,” and these are always ready on the lips. Becaulds the Dean’s view sound to-day, the writer will venture to warn the readers of this book agabit that, growing far too common among us, should be checked, and this is the iteration

teration in conversation of “the battered, stale, and trite” phrases, the like of which were crethe worthy Dean to the women of his time.

man thought elaborates itself with the progress of intelligence. Speech is the harvest of thoughrelation which exists between words and the mouths that speak them must be carefully obse

t as nothing is more beautiful than a word fitly spoken, so nothing is rarer than the use of a wexact meaning. There is a tendency to overwork both words and phrases that is not restrict

y particular class. The learned sin in this respect even as do the ignorant, and the practise sptil it becomes an epidemic. The epidemic word with us yesterday was unquestio

onscription”; several months ago it was “preparedness.” Before then “efficiency” was heaery side and succeeded in superseding “vocational teaching,” only to be displaced in turn byension” activities. “Safety-first” had a long run which was brought almost to abrupt end by “

countability,” but these are mere reflections of our cosmopolitan life and activities. Therhers that stand out as indicators of brain-weariness. These are most frequently met in the wor novelists.

glish authors and journalists are abusing and overworking the word intrigue to-day. Sir Aillercouch on page 81 of his book “On the Art of Writing” uses it: “We are intrigued by the pro

manufacture instead of being wearied by a description of the ready-made article.” Mrs. Sidg“Salt and Savour,” page 232, wrote: “But what intrigued her was Little Mamma’s rema

eakfast,” From the Parliamentary news, one learns that “Mr. Harcourt intrigued the Hoummons by his sustained silence for two years” and that “London is interested in, and not arigued, by the statement.” This use of intrigue in the sense of “perplex, puzzle, trick, or deces from 1600. Then it fell into a state of somnolence, and after an existence of innocuous desuting till 1794 it was revived, only to hibernate again until 1894. It owes its new lease of lifiter on The Westminster Gazette, a London journal famous for its competitions in aid otoring of the dead meanings of words.



e is almost exasperated by the repeated use and abuse of the word “intimate” in a recblished work of fiction, by an author who aspires to the first rank in his profession. He wrie intimate dimness of the room;” “a fierce intimate whispering;” “a look that was intimate;”se of the city was intimate,” etc. Who has not heard, “The idea!” “What’s the idea?” “Is tha?” “Yes, that’s the idea,” with increased inflection at each repetition. And who is without a fo at some time or another has not sprung “meticulous” upon him? Another example is affordendemic use of “of sorts” which struck London while the writer was in that city a few years

hence it came no one knew, but it was heard on every side. “She was a woman of sorts;” “h

ry of sorts;” “he had a religion of sorts;” “he was a critic of sorts.” While it originally meanferent or various kinds,” as hats of sorts; offices of sorts; cheeses of sorts, etc., it is nowparagingly, and implies something of a kind that is not satisfactory, or of a character that is ror. This, as Shakespeare might have said, is “Sodden business! There’s a stewed phrase indee

ootnote: Troilus and Cressida, act iii, sc. 1.]

e abuse of phrases and the misuse of words rife among us can be checked by diligent exerciod English, such as this book provides. These exercises, in conjunction with others to be fou

ferent volumes by the same author, will serve to correct careless diction and slovenly speechd to the art of speaking and writing correctly; for, after all, accuracy in the use of words is mtter of habit than of theory, and once it is acquired it becomes just as easy to speak or to write glish as bad English. It was Chesterfield’s resolution not to speak a word in conversation ws not the fittest he could recall. All persons should avoid using words whose meanings they dow, and with the correct application of which they are unfamiliar. The best spoken and theitten English is that which conforms to the language as used by men and women of culture—andard, it is true, but one not so high that it is unattainable by any earnest student of the Engue.

OW TO USE THIS BOOK

e study of words, phrases, and literary expressions is a highly interesting pursuit. Thereiprocal influence between thought and language. What we think molds the words we use, anrds we use react upon our thoughts. Hence a study of words is a study of ideas, and a stimul

ep and original thinking.

e should not, however, study “sparkling words and sonorous phrases” with the objeroducing them consciously into our speech. To do so would inevitably lead to stiltednessperficiality. Words and phrases should be studied as symbols of ideas, and as we beroughly familiar with them they will play an unconscious but effective part in our daily expres

e acquire our vocabulary largely from our reading and our personal associates. The words wan unmistakable indication of our thought habits, tastes, ideals, and interests in life. In

nner, the habitual language of a people is a barometer of their intellectual, civil, moralritual ideals. A great and noble people express themselves in great and noble words.

skin earnestly counsels us to form the habit of looking intensely at words. We should scrum closely and endeavor to grasp their innermost meaning. There is an indefinable satisfactowing how to choose and use words with accuracy and precision. As Fox once said, “I am neoss for a word, but Pitt always has the word.”

the great writers and orators have been diligent students of words.

mosthenes and Cicero were indefatigable in their study of language. Shakespeare, “infinulty,” took infinite pains to embody his thought in words of crystal clearness. Coleridge oncehim that one might as well try to dislodge a brick from a building with one’s forefinger as to ogle word from one of his finest passages.

lton, master of majestic prose, under whose touch words became as living things; Flaubertieved there was one and one only best word with which to express a given thought; De Quo exercised a weird-like power over words; Ruskin, whose rhythmic prose enchanted th

ats, who brooded over phrases like a lover; Newman, of pure and melodious style; Steveever in quest of the scrupulously precise word;

nnyson, graceful and exquisite as the limpid stream; Emerson, of trenchant and epigrammatic ebster, whose virile words sometimes weighed a pound; and Lincoln, of simple, Saxon speechse illustrious men were assiduous in their study of words.

any persons of good education unconsciously circumscribe themselves within a small vocabuey have a knowledge of hundreds of desirable words which they do not put into practical uir speech or writing. Many, too, are conscious of a poverty of language, which engenders in th



nse of timidity and self-depreciation. The method used for building a large vocabulary has usen confined to the study of single words. This has produced good results, but it is believeinently better results can be obtained from a careful study of words and expressions, as furnthis book, where words can be examined in their context.

s intended and suggested that this study should be pursued in connection with, and as a supplea good standard dictionary. Fifteen minutes a day devoted to this subject, in the manner outl

ll do more to improve and enlarge the vocabulary than an hour spent in desultory reading.

ere is no better way in which to develop the mental qualities of clearness, accuracy, and precid to improve and enlarge the intellectual powers generally, than by regular and painstaking studiciously selected phrases and literary expressions.



AN OF STUDY

st examine the book in a general way to grasp its character, scope, and purpose. Carefully nolowing plan of classification of the various kinds of phrases, and choose for initial study a seich you think will be of the most immediate value to you.

ere are many advantages in keeping before you a definite purpose in your study of this booll-defined plan will act as an incentive to regular and systematic effort, and incidentally deur power of concentration.

s desirable that you set apart a certain convenient time each day for this study. Regularity tenoduce maximum results. As you progress with this work your interest will be quickened anll realize the desirability of giving more and more time to this important subject.

hen you have chosen a section of the book which particularly appeals to you, begin your ady by reading the phrases aloud. Read them slowly and understandingly. This tends to imm more deeply upon your mind, and is in itself one of the best and most practical ways of acquarge and varied vocabulary. Moreover, the practise of fitting words to the mouth rapidly dev

ency and facility of speech.

w persons realize the great value of reading aloud. Many of the foremost English stylists devotain period regularly to this practise. Cardinal Newman read aloud each day a chapter from Ca means of developing his ear for sentence-rhythm. Rufus Choate, in order to increase his comlanguage, and to avoid sinking into mere empty fluency, read aloud daily, during a large part oe, a page or more from some great English author. As a writer has said, “The practise of storinnd with choice passages from the best prose writers and poets, and thus flavoring it witence of good literatures, is one which is commended both by the best teachers and by the exasome of the most celebrated orators, who have adopted it with signal success.”



is study should be pursued with pencil in hand, so that you may readily underscore phrases wke a special appeal to you. The free use of a pencil in marking significant parts of a book is dence of thoroughness. This, too, will facilitate your work of subsequent review.

e habit of regularly copying, in your own handwriting, one or more pages of phrases will mense practical value. This exercise is a great aid in developing a facile English style. The e of the pen has been recommended in all times as a valuable means of developing oral and lit

pression.

helpful exercise is to pronounce a phrase aloud and then fit it into a complete sentence of yourking. This practice gives added facility and resourcefulness in the use of words.

an enthusiastic student of good English, you should carefully note striking and significant phliterary expressions which you find in your general reading. These should be set down in a ok reserved for this exclusive purpose. In this way you can prepare many lists of your owns greatly augment the value of this study.

e taste for beauty, truth, and harmony in language can be developed by careful study of ected phrases and literary expressions as furnished in this book. A good literary style is foncipally by daily study of great English writers, by careful examination of words in their cod by a discriminating use of language at all times.
