Truth About Lying.
SAMUEL BUTLER did not mind
lying. but he. hated inaccuracy. Yet.
he believed that there is no such
source of error as the pursuit of ab~
solute truth. .
"The pursuit of truth is chimer-
icsl. That is why it. is so hard to
say what truth is. THERE IS NO
PERMANENT ABSOLUTE UN-
CHAISGEABLE TRUTH: what we
should pursue is the most convenient
arrangement of our ideas.
I O 0
IN HIS Notebook. Butler wrote
"We can neither refine what we
mean by truth nor be in doubt as to
our meaning. And this i suppose
must be due to the antiquity of the
instinct that. on the whole directs
us toward truth. We cannot self»
vivisect ourselves in respect of such
a vital function. though we can dis-
charge it normally and easily enough
so 'long as we do nothing about
it."
. O O 0
RE WHO CAN best read men.
Butler observed. knows all truth
that need concern him: for it is not
what the thing is. apart from man‘s
thoughts in respect of it. but how
to reach the fairest compromise be-
tween men's pest and future opin-
ions thst is the fittest object of con.
sideration: and this we get by read-
ing men and women.

This does not matter until import-
ant deductions are made on the
supposition that there are no jagged

”An absolute lie may live-efor it
is a true lie. and is saved by being
locked with a min of its opposite.
Not so absolute truth."
"Whenever we push truth bard
she comes to earth in contradiction
in terms. that is to say. in falsehood.
An essential contradiction in terms
meets us at the end of every in.
quiry."
“Perhaps a little bit of absolute
truth on any one question might
prove a general solvent. and dissi-
pate the universe."
"Truth generally is kindness. but
where the two diverge or collide.
kidness should override truth."

RAIN 1! SUMMER.
How beautiful is the rain!
After the dust and best.
In the broad and fiery street.
In the narrow lane. ‘
How beautiful is the rain!
How it clatters along the roofs
Like the tramp of hoof-3
How it gushes and struggles out
From the throat of the overflowing
spout!
Across the window-pane
It pours and pours:
And swift and wide.
With a muddy tide.
Like a river tide down the gutter
