A MATTER OF POLICY.

While honesty is policy
And truth jewel, too.
I'd hate TO he the person
Who told everything that's true,
Who, instead of lying glihly-
"What lovely child is thatn'
Must in truth say to its mother,
'What an ugly little brat!"
Just suppose at some reception
Entertainment should be slow
And we fret and fumc and fidgct.
As we often do, you know,
Who would care to make his farewell
Truthfully to host and say.
'Ivc been simply bored to death, sir,
And I'm glad to get awayY
Who would care to meet lady
Whom he hadn't seen for years,
Greet her pleasantly and tell her
How much older she appcarSl
How much nicer to lie glibly.
Lie sincerely and to say,
"Why, it seems to me that You arc
Growing younger every day!"
De he saint or he he sinner,
Would mortal man. forsooth,
Ever dare go ont to dinner
II he had to tell the truth
Say the roast was tough and taStclcss,
Say the soup was seasoned wrong,
Say twas strange how weak the coffee
When the butter was SO strong2
When the amateur canary
In the parlor warhlcs gay,
Like a huz2saw on a tantrum,
Who would care to rise and sag:
"Goodncss me, but how you nlttedl
My, how shrill your high notes arel
have heard Young calves that blatted
Better music-bcttcr farY'
II TO truth you have a leaning,
It's not always wise to say
What you think on some occasions;
There's another, wiser way.
'TwiXt your policy and conscience
Just effect compromise
And let what you think be truthful
II what you must tell be lies.
