THE HABIT OF LYING
Way In Which Prevarication May
Dc Developed
How does one become a Uar that Is
to say how does the child discover a
He and habitually make ura of it
We can admit that at the beginning
there Is absolute sincerity The child
through all its first years neither lies
nor dissimulates Its sentiments its
desires translate themselves into words
and Into acts Its body is the constant
and perfect expression of Its inmost
being Such Is the starting point sin
cerity absolute transparency
There Is a multitude of little lies
tolerated which we treat as pardon
able We tell the domestic to say we
are not at home when we are we com
pliment people to their faces and crit
icise them when they are gone we say
we are happy to see some one and di
rectly after speak of having been an
noyed No more is necessary The ex
ample has been given
We lie to the child himself We are
pressed by his many embarrassing
questions and in order to free ourselves
from the embarrassment reply with
what is frequently a falsehood Some
fine day he discovers the truth and the
evil is done The gravest case is when
the child is taken as an accomplice in a
lie or when his mother tells him
Above all do not tell this to your
papa This is the ruin of all morality
The third stage is the first encounter
of the child with society the first
shock with social life The child who
tells all he knows sees and hears all
that he would better have left unsaid
is called the infant terrible His
parents do not tell him to lie but they
tell him it is not necessary to tell nil
he thinks This is extremely serious
as It teaches the child that he cannot
show himself as he is This is the
revelation of the lie obligatory Above
all among his comrades he quickly
learns to dissimulate because if he is
naive expresses all his joys pains de
siresthey make sport of him nay
worse they abuse his confidence the
hopes projects which he has confided
to them he some day sees used against
him
Thus the impossibility of living with
out lying is revealed to him Society
excuses certain forms of lying which
are inspired by a feeling of politeness
modesty shame
The child becomes a liar because all
the world about him lies The distinc
tion between the liar and the man of
sincerity is only relative There are in
reality only two categories those who
content themselves with the lies exact
ed by social life and those who have
habituated themselves to lying more
than society wishes to lie because of
some personal interest
An important cause in the develop
ment of lying in children is the em
ployment of excessive and ill advised
punishments The child who becomes
a liar is the one who lives in perpetual
terror of reproaches humiliation or
strokes The lie for him is a supreme
resource Chicago Tribune
His Solemn Oath
A popular comedian tells a story of
a waiter at a London restaurant who
was sadly given to drink A party of
young men determined to reform him
and one day they read to him an imag
inary paragraph from a paper relating
a terrible accident in which an inebri
ate in blowing out a candle was killed
by the flame igniting the alcoholic
fumes of his breath James pricked
up his ears at this and requested that
the paragraph might be read to him
again which was done to the evident
horror of the poor man who imme
diately went in search of a Bible
Returning with this he expressed a
desire to take a solemn oath upon it
bemoaned the fact that he had been a
sorry tippler and was bringing himself
to ruin and then swore that never
again so long as he lived would he at
tempt to blow out a candle
Hut Hot With the Line
He had fished up the stream and
down the stream and used flies paste
worms and every other form of bait
that the ingenuity of man could de
vise but without result and as he
wended his way homeward at the
close of the day his temper was high
and his fish basket empty Still there
was no occasion to publish the latter
fact to the whole world so when he
met a friend by the way the following
dialogue ensued
Been fishing
Yes
Had a good days sport
Yes
What did you catch
The G30 Answers
Peacli Stones
Peach stones will make a quick hot
fire and one that will last One and
a half or two buckets of peach stones
will last as long as a bucket of coal
One has to be careful not to fill the
stove too full or there will likely be an
explosion similar to a gasoline explo
sion The proper way to keep the fire
going is to put in a shovelful at a time
Peach stones thrown into a damp cel
lar said one who has used them are
said to have a peculiar effect on a per
son After the stones are in a cellar
for a time gases arise and the fumes
Will go to ones head and give the
same effect as if the distilled product
of the peach had been imbibed Bal

Mrs Norton came home from a call
one day in such a disturbed condition

The Cry of Silk
One of the most peculiar features
about manufactured silk is the rustling
sound familiar to every woman In
the silk trade they call it the cry or
sometimes the scroop Of all textiles
silk is the only material which pos
sesses it
As everybody knows the sound is
heard especially when silk is subjected
to friction What is not so generally
known is that the quality is found in
silk yarn before it is woven A skein
of silk unless it has been so treated as
to kill this property in it will when
opened up emit the noise slightly
When the skein is squeezed in the
hand the sound becomes quite audible
The cry is considered a very desir
able quality in silk Dyers try to de
velop it as much as possible
Unexpected Applause
Shortly after Mr Wilson Barrett
joined the theatrical profession he be
came a member of a company perform
ing at the old Theater Royal Dublin
His part naturally was a small one
and greatly to his surprise his first
speech was greeted with a round of
applause This unlooked for tribute
elated the young actor and he exerted
himself to sustain the good impression
he appeared to have made Just as he
was leaving the theater one of the
scene shifters grinningly accosted him
and said Sure its got about among
the bhoys that yere a brother of the
man that was hung A Fenian named
Barrett had that morning paid the ex
treme penalty of the law
An Absurd Custom In Vienna
In Vienna every mans home is his
dungeon from 10 p m to G a m Vienna
is a city of flats and at 10 p m the
common entrance door of each block is
closed and bolted Thereafter persons
passing in or out must pay a fine of
twopence to the concierge until mid
night and fourpence from that hour to
6 a m To go out to post a letter costs
twopence and the same amount to re
turn To prolong a visit to a friend
after 10 p m means twopence to get
out of his house and twopence more to
enter your own A natural result of
this irritating tax is that of capital
cities Vienna is earliest to beo
