THE LIE

THE LIE.
That girl was a close IL youthfui
observer of human nature who de-
Iclared that "a lie was an abomina-
ton unto the Lord, but q very pres
ent help In time of rouble." The
dictionary may be more accurate,
hut hardly more expressive. 1.-THE
lie involves the expression of what
is false. the intention TO deceive.
and a violation of ONE obligation
to give to others the truth. In the
wide sense, 1t includes the lie prop
.er, whether by word or act equivo-
cation, and reservation both real
and mental"
In other words. there are IN
stauces when an untruth is notA
lie, and when the truth IL really q
lie. There Is for fine dis
examinations, In which the comment
quoted above from the dictionary
on ght to point the way. For many a
man prides himself upon telling the
truth, and he has In q technical
sense, although at the am time he
la uttering the veriest ~falsehood.
When is "a lie not a lie? And when
Is the truth not the TRUTH
The expression OF what IL false,
Iordfnarily called a lie, may not be-
such If the person addressed IL not
entitled to know the truth. A very
sick person, whose chances OF re-
|coyrey seem doubtful, may ask to
know his condition, to whom 1t Is
telling no lie to ~equigocate, espec-
Iialfy IL the thought that 1t Is go
ing to o will materially help
to that end, aud the reverse be true.
But we must always be sure OF our
grounds, and be certain that the Pc
culiar conditions are such as to
make the seeming lie justifable,
otherwise 1t will be far better TO
give tho person the benefit OF the
doubt.
When is a person under obliga-
lfion to give to others the whole
truth, and not a part OF 1t only, or
an euuivocation thereof? II fs rea-
lsonably safe to say that 1t should be
at all times, except In the graEesl
emergency. And the who with
holds the whole truth must always
assume the responsibility for SO do-
ling. for the Judgment MAY %
AGAINST him when all the conditions
are known. Especially Is this true
when dealing with the pubic,
whom NIT lis seldom safe IN any way
to deceive, even in the gravest
emergencies of state. This Is all the
more especially true In a democratic
form Of government. wherein the
people are the real rulers. and
wherein their servants, the officers
whom they have elected, and all n
lers who may be serving them, are
always safe In taking the people In
to their confidence. Otherwise there
lis danger of Observation-Disclosures and
accusations; nor can the responst-
biIity be evaded, not even II that
which was done was with b best

"THE GODS ARE THIRSTY"
Anatole France AS Critic Of the
French Revolution.

Paris, June y.
NJ. Anatole France in his latest book,
Les Dieux ont Soft" published by Cal
rnann-Levy. gives a deliciously cpl
curean picture Of the French Revolution.
but, like Ernest Renan, the author Of
"T,e Manneduin d'Osier" and Les Cpl
MONS de NJ. Jerome Coignard, OCCASION
ally arouses the indignation as well as
the admiration Of certain groups Of his
readers. NJ Fhatoe France has often
been called an anarchist" and "nihil-
ist." To-day several caustic radical
socialist critics feel justified, by the
ironical skepticism developed in his brill
liant and humorous philosophical skit on
Frances greatest social upheaval, in
"denouncing" him as dangerous re-
dictionary" The truth is, NJ. Anatole
France is merely an impartial, alert OBJ
server of the Revolution, which he de-
scribes by means of portraits set amidst
terrific action and surrounded with the
heavily charged atmosphere of the
period.
THE Gods Are Thirsty" is written In
the form of a novel. The hero is Evarist
Gameln, young painter, pupil Of
David, who lives with his affectionate
mother in q garnet. He is a pure ideal
list, and yet becomes one Of the most
cruel. relentless figures of the Revolu-
tionary tribunal. Then there Is Maurice
Brotteaux, once an afIluent fastidious
royalist courtier, who, having lost his
fortune, earns his living by making toys
and selling them TO the children Of the
people, while he discourses Ironically
concerning what goes on about him,
very much like the chorus I'm an ancient
Greek tragedy. The "deism" of Evarist
and of Robespierre IL ruthessly dis
sected by BrotteauE. The women In the
novel are wonderful and complicated
creatures Of the fertile and subtle imagi-
nation Of NJ. Anatole France. There is a
marvellous priest, there is a meretricious
Goddess Of Reason" and family out
lined profiles OF a dozen other characters
i'm the book make altogether q masterful
picture. Needless to remark, nearly all
of these interesting personages are be-
headed by the gullotine. A thrilling
chapter deals with street scenes just be-
fore the assassination OF Marat, Ami
du Peuple." A pork butcher smears
Marat's portrait with blood, saying,
THAT is what he likes" Busts of Marat
had been placed in all the theatres. The
audience In the Theatre Feydeau shout:
1T is a shame to see these busts every
wherew "A bas Marat" He has al
most as many busts as victims!"
Malignant toad Tiger Black
snake," A spectator upsets a bust
which falls down into the pit among the
musicians ard is broken into fragments.
