The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1904-07-09

Katherine Pope writes an interest
ing essay on the advantages Of deceit,
or the use Of tact, in the Reader Mag
azine that is mostly several stories to
illustrate her point. The Introduction
Is: Men, whether deservedly or not,
are accounted more truthful, less given
to deceivlng ways, than women. I
sometimes wonder If their women In
Inmates never tell them that not in
frequently this lauded honesty Of
theirs looks to the less blunt sex most
undesirable, not to say grossly stupid,
grossly brutal" The common confu-
sion Of lying with tact may easily be
carried too far. There may be some
tact in some lying, but there Ii no
lying In true tact. The highest tact
is absolute truthfulness. There are
little lies that seem just1flable. You
see an Ill friend who looks worse and
tell him he looks better. 1t makes him
feel better. Maybe he actually be-
comes better as a result. 1t is a lie
that does nobody harm and does some
good. But there are few lies that
have SO good a motive. If we told no
lies except to help other people this
would be strangely truthful world.
We pay compliments to please others,
but the Interior motive Is to ingra-
tlate ourselves into their affections.
We make ourselves agreeable by reign
ing feelings and opinions that We do
%Nt Vi
ourselves liked not for what we really
are but for what we only pretend to
be. Now, it would be far better tact,
and far easier, to be than it is to pre-
tend to be. By pretense we go long
way around to reach a point that by
sincerity we might reach by a direct
route. And while by mere pretense we
may win the respect Of others for
while, by sincerity we win the far
more valuable respect Of ourselves for
all time. Besides, 1t Is not at all nee
essary to lie in order to pay compli-
ments. Even the worst Of people have
good qualities that may be truthfully
commended True tact consists In be-
ing generous with the truth. 1t Is
commonly said that men are more
truthful than women are. 1t is per-
haps due to their business training, as
well as to the fact that tney are not so
subject to petty impulses and spites.
When a man lies he generally does 1t
straight from the shoulder. The wo-
man generally "flbs" without knowing
exactly why she does it, follows the
first flb with another and another to
cover it, and ends In believing at least
half Of them.
