NEVER tell anybody an unpalata-
able truth when it can answer no
good purpose. This sort of unnec-
essary candor is sometimes prompt
ed by malice, sometimes by mere
looseness OF tongue. Sydney Smith
says, and very justly, that friend
ship is frequently made an excuse
for unpunishable impertlnence by
people who pride themselves on
speaking their minds freely. The
truth maliciously spoken, may be
libelous; and when volunteered In
relation to matters with which the
utterer has no concern, it is very
often unmannerly. As surely as
pleasant truths kindly meant and
said are passports to friendship and
affections, so surely do bitter ones
provoke the enmity and hatred of
those to whom they are addressed.
If you have taste for sharp repair
tee, restrain il. 1t is better to lose
jest than a friend-to miss an
opportunity of saying a good thing
than to make an enemy.
