supernuOus Talk.

The late Professor Huxley, who was
as shrewd an observer Of men as he
was Of nature, once remarked, after
falling into an lndiscretlon which an
noyed him. that when man says what
he has no need to say he is sure TO
blunder. The truth of the observation
Will hardly be questioned unless by the
very few. II there are any such. who
never say more than there is necessity
for saying. Most of us acknowledge, If
we review our own experience in the
matter. that we have frequently erred
by saying what needed not to be said.
But why Is 1t that people so persistent
ly commit this mistake? In the ordi-
nary small talk of the household or Of
society 1t matters little whether II is
committed or not.
But when serious matters are In
question. whether I'm conversation, I'm
set speech or In correspondence, case
is frequently spoiled by irrelevance or
redundance. To say what you mean is
comparatively easy: to leave Off when
you have said 1t is difficult and for
many people SAlpossible. In Huxley's
case the fault, which he probably did
not often commit. was due neither to
want of clear thinking nor to want of
facility I'm the use of words. one or
the other or both of these causes will
explain the inability to keep to the
point" which is usually apparent in
the specch-dnd writing of uneducated
persons. But often, also, the speaker
or writer forgets that extrancous con-
siderations. interesting enough to him
self, are of no interest TO those whom
he wishes to convince.
