thing far more serious than the slap

his name a tittering by-word on the
motion picture screens of the world.
Tho authority for this statement is

In proof Of her contention, a story
has recently become extant that the
Young woman has really Influenced
the immortal Charlie to inject some
dramatic touches in his work. and the
idea that he is fully capable Of it Is

E-Iske, one Of the greatest dramatic
artists. and also by the film critic OF
a,large New York newspaper.

Thus far, they have heard nothing

MANY PITFALLS IN HIS PATH
Much Truth In Old HeosIer Saying
That Liar Should Have an
Extra Good Memory.

"Sd Says" In the American Mnga-
zine:
81 have long considered issuing a
warning to linrs-sO here goes:
ave nre NIL tempted to decorate the
truth. Frequently the truth IL no lily
so we like to paint 1t.
"But we have another human frnll-
ity which. particularly when 1t comes
to our wanting to tell lie. Is exceed
lngly bothersome-and that Ia our poor
memories. We don't rcnllze how often
we tell the same story twice, and we
don't realize how. hnrd It is to &cll the
same story twice alike, especially II
1t isn't true. You recall the old Hoos-
Ter saying, 4 reckon that man In or
der to be n good liar must have
wonderful memory
"There Is no doubt that II Ia cas-
Ter to tell the truth and then repeat 1t,
than 1t Is to tell lie and then try
to repent that. Test yourself on this.
Suppose somebody asks you what size
hnt you wenr. II you tell the truth
nbOut II you won't have any trouble
answering the same question n month
from now. But II you lie about 1t
you may not recall the lie you told, and
find yourself puzzled.
"That Is how this editorial hap
pened to be writtcn-Only II wasn't
the size OF mans hat thut got him
into trouble. but the size Of his snl-
nry. A friend OF mine had two inter-
Views with n man whom he was con-
sIdering for nm important job. The
interviews were three months apart.
At the first Interview the man was
asked what salary he got. He men
toned II certain figure. At the second
Interview the same question was
asked and different figure was men
toned. 1t so happened that my
friends connections were such Tint he
could get Mt the truth. He did get at
II. and found Tint both figures were
lies. Tint ended the negotiations for
the new Job.
"As rnce we human beings are
pretty clever. We can move about that

Of us. We cant swing up to II with
