""IS IT POLITE TO SPEAK THE
TRUTH.
Very many people arrive at the
conclusion that the use of prevari
cation to a greater of less extent,
is one of the requisites of social
intercourse. Indeed, as says the
Philadelphia Ledger: "It is a very
common notion, though not often
openly expressed, that truth and
politeness are frequently at vari
ance with each other. It would be
a great gain to both character and
conduct if the delusion of this
supposed discord could be thor
oughly dispelled. There is no
real conflict between truth and
politeness; what is imagined to be
such is only the crude mistake of
those who fail to discover their
harmony. Politeness, taken in its
best sense, is the graceful expres
sion of respect, kind feeling, and
good-will. These dispositions are
dependent on a truthtul character
for whatever value they may have.
Indeed, they (wfiinot exist in the
insincere or deceitful man. The
presence of kindly feeling and
good-will never of itself suggests
prevarication or insincerity. The
golden rule would forbid this. We
do not wish to be deceived, to
have a show of interest or friend-!
i
liness that does not exist, to re-1
ceive unmeaning compliments or
insincere protessions. hy, then,
should we imagine that others will
be pleased by the same things?
The very wish to delude them im
plies the absence of that true kind
liness to which we pretend. On
the other hand, hjw can rudeness,
bluntness, or incivility serve the
cause of truth? They onry
damage it by making it unaccepta
ble. Some appear to think that if
they differ from their neighbor on
any subject they must either be
disloyal to their convictions, by
hiding them, or prevaricating
about them, or else give offense
by opposition and antagonism.
Neither is unnecessary. It is not
declaring a conviction that hurts
the feelings or wounds the pride of
those who do not share it; it is
the tone of superiority and dogma
tism that is so often assumed, the
lack of sympathy, appreciation
and respect that is conveyed, the
ill-concealed contempt felt for
those who think differently.
Truth demands none of all this.
Expressed at proper seasons, firmly
and clearly, yet modestly and
kindly, its claims are fulfilled,
while none of the claims of polite
ness need be infringed. There
are, however, other occasions
where truth and politeness seem to
clash, though it is only seeming.
The desire to be agreeable and to
say pleasant thiiis sometimes
leads the thoughtless to exaggera
tion, to carelessness of facts, or to
absolute misstatement. On the
other hand, a mistaken idea that
the truth must be spoken at all
times and at all hazards may lead
to needlessly disagreeable utter
ances, which are always harmful.
Is then accuracy the only consid
eration ? It is certainly the first,
but not the only one. No word,
however pleasing it may be, should
escape any one's lips, unless hon
estly believed to be true. This
would banish flattery, untruthful
excuses, misleading statements
The transient gratification they
may afford would be more than
compensated by the trust that
would be engendered. As it is at
present, how often is the charm of
such utterances broken by the
secret whisper of doubt as to how
far they are really meant. Yet
very many things which are known
to be true require no utterance in
the cause of truth, while they
demand absolute silence in the in
terests of sympathy and kindness.
To allude to people's deficiencies,
mistakes, weaknesses and faults,
when no good result is likely to
follow, is no tribute to truth, but a
great breach of good-will and j
politeness." It needs but the true
humanity loving feeling that makes
all the world akin, and a deep
founded purpose to always adhere
to the truth, to give every person
wisdom to join in perfect union
truth and politeness.
ED PTO Hi AL XOTES.
Indications now point to either
Blaine or Sheridan as the next
president of the United States.
Richard K. Fox, of the New
York Police Gazette, derives an
income of $20,000 a year, and the
Christian at Work is printed on
one of his presses, not being able
to own one, gnd an exchange
thinks there's a big moral to this
if you have time to work it out.
The coal output of the world is
409,000,000 tons, of which the
United States produces 10,000,0:X,
Asia 0,000,000 and Africa 200,000.
Europe produces 72 per cent, of
all, 205,000,000 tons. The average
per head of population is 225
pounds per year.
The Blair bill to appropriate
money to the different state.-, ii,
die ratio of their statistical illiter
acy, for an educational fund, which
has been occupying the attention
of congress for several sessions,
was passed by the senate recently
by a vote of 39 to 2S. It will prob
ably receive its final death blow in
the house, which will save the
ignominy of an exit by the Clove
land veto sword.
The work of the ways and means
committee on reduction of the
surplus, as brought out by the re
port of its chairman, J. Q. Mills,
of Texjs, is simply a repetition o.
Senator Sherman's recommenda
tion made long ago, the buying uj.
of United States bonds. The sup
position is that Uncle Sam has
been buying up bonds just as fas'
as possible, but no forcing of that
kind of business is practicable
until the bonds fall due.
The searchers after Capt. Kidd's
mythical treasures will j.rouib'y
exist as long as legendary lore
continues to secure interested
readers and listeners. The latest
edition consisted of a party of
Americans who have departed for
the coast of Honduras to search
for buried treasures. It is not re
corded whether they prosecute
their search by the pale light of
the silvery moon, accompanied by
mystical incantations or not, but
to be in keeping with their avoca
tion thev should certainly have all
of those accessories.
