Excerpt from On the Stage and Off In penning the following pages I have endeavored to be truthful. In looking back upon the scenes through which I passed, I have sought to penetrate the veil of glamour Time trails behind him as he flies, and to see things exactly as they were - to see the rough road as well as the smiling landscape, the briers and brambles as well as the green grass and the waving trees. Now, however, that my task is done, and duty no longer demands that memory should use a telescope, the mellowing haze of distance resumes its sway, and the Stage again appears the fair, enchanted ground that I once dreamt it. I forget the shadows, and remember but the brightness. The hardships that I suffered seem now but picturesque incidents; the worry only pleasurable excitement. I think of the Stage as of a lost friend. I like to dwell upon its virtues and to ignore its faults. I wish to bury in oblivion the bad, bold villains and the false-hearted knaves who played a part thereon, and to think only of the gallant heroes, the virtuous maidens, and the good old men.

I make no pretence to literary skill, and can only tell my story in a very simple way, in the belief that, as nearly all my life has been passed in the service of the public, I may speak to the reader as to a patient and sympathetic friend. My father was Robert Pleydell Wilton. My mothers name before she married him was Georgiana Jane Faulkner. I am one of six surviving children born to them, all of whom were girls. How it came to pass that I had any ability as an actress, I could never understand; neither my father normy mother being born to the stage, so to speak, nor was either of them distinguished in their adopted calling. My father came of an old Gloucestershire family, and was originally intended for the Church; but that idea was soon abandoned, for he was infatuated with an early love for the stage. He first tried the sea, however, then the law, and in a fit of martial ardour, having quarrelled with his father, he enlisted as a soldier; but, after serving his King and country for twenty-four hours, he regretted his hasty step and implored to be bought out. His father declined, but his mother came to the rescue, as mothers always do, and so ended my fathers brief military career.

Excerpt from Pauline Frederick: On and Off the Stage Life for Pauline began on August I z, I 883 in an incubator! She was in such a hurry to get started on her eventful life that she could not wait longer than seven months and came into the world weighing only four pounds! She was such a tiny little bundle that they carried her about on a small cushion. Then having rushed into the world so uncere moniously, she refused to look at it for nearly three months. She was eleven weeks Old before she opened her eyes! This was the result of what might have been a very terrible tragedy. A careless nurse took her too near the light during the first days and for a time it was feared that she would never see. First it was a question whether even an incubator could make that four pounds into a person strong enough to face the world, and then the agonizing fear that she might be blind. Pauline however surprised them all. Not only did she grow into a sturdy child, but the eyes which had caused so much anxiety were as beautiful as any could be. Moreover, as she grew she developed the most extraordinary vitality. She never seemed to be physically tired and others of apparently stronger physique would wilt while she could go on hours longer showing no signs of fatigue.

Excerpt from The Romance of the English Stage, Vol. 1 of 2 There are several collections in which the lives of the English actors and actresses have been set out. Of these the most important are Galt's 'Lives of the Players, ' in which the substance, without the form, of the various theatrical autobiographies has been given, mingled, however, with much that is apocryphal; and the more recent 'History of the English Stage, ' by Dr. Doran, which is brought down almost to our own day. Nothing, however, hitherto published has professed to place before the public what may be considered the most interesting and characteristic feature of theatrical memoirs. Their chief attraction is found to be the air of personal confession, and simplicity of the revelations furnished - the naivete, the humour, and almost garrulous confidence; above all, the quaint turn of expression in which everything is unfolded.

Excerpt from How to Get on the Stage: And How to Succeed There Years have sped along since 'the Stage with the Curtain Raised was first issued to the public. That little book was received with the utmost favour by the press and the leading lights of the theatrical profession; it has now for some time been out of print. In the present work the same subject is treated much more exhaustively, and, it is hoped, to much better purpose. Dramatic aspirants and talented amateurs desirous of becoming real actors and actresses are daily on the increase, but for lack of a guide, philosopher, and friend, ' they readily fall a prey to the professional schemer. Studied in conjunction with the companion volume, Roughing It on the Stage, which is a faithful record of actual experiences, How to Get on the Stage should supply a distinct want.

Excerpt from Behind the Scenes: A Story of the Stage Our little Verivic has written this small book, and it is a great comfort to us all to sec it in print. It is something done - a triumph. The wisest man, they tell us, says there is no end of this - vanity. We hope so. The world keeps going over and over, and yet some of it does not "see itself as others see it." This seems a pity. Who is there that would not be the better by knowing how he looks in the eyes of others? To put a strong case, possibly even the "righteous" might be benefited by knowing exactly how they and their opinions appear to the "wicked." Books are other people's eyes to see ourselves and our pets with. Is it really wise for the bad to taboo the eyes of the good, or the reverse? It is abundantly done, nevertheless, between different classes, both, of course, esteeming themselves pretty good. Almost every one has opinions, more or less settled, in regard to our various social and religious institutions, including the stage. Our Verivic has the peculiarity of having seen the latter from many points of view, without ever having been "behind the scenes" of any of the others, and of proceeding, from first to last, on the very unpopular assumption, that if there is any salt on earth that retains its savor, it cannot and will not shrink from familiarity with anything that needs to be saved.
