criticise Hnlston's method of selling

Business Truth.
B
OB For my part, I'd rather rep-
resent a stock ns It Is and let
the customer choose for him-
Mtf.
Ralston I didn't misrepresent It.
Bob Tea you did. You told me to
tay out, you told Van Dusen that
Clark baa bought.
Balaton I sold Marshall and Had
ley without naming Clark.
Bb-But you did tell them It was a
great mine?
jUlatoa Well, I hope It ti. I've not

the ehanoea are I'll strike It If I do,
they wrnl
Bob But now the mine Isn't any
good.
Ralston It's no good nt all, If you
want to know the truth. The stock
last worth the paper It's written on.
Bob I thought so.
Ralston But there's quicksilver In
New Mexico somewhere and somebody
la going to strike It. I've told many a
lie which I have mado coma true. A
lie la Just as good as the truth If the
result Is all right. Profit Is tho only
thtng In business, and profit Is lmag
keatlon and Imagination la seldom the
truth. It's what you hope for. The
world doesn't believe the truth. It
didn't believe there was an America,
for Columbus to discover. They didn't
believe Alexander Hell had a telephone
any moro then they thought Oyrus
Field could lay the Atlantic cable, and
those fellows were telling the truth nll
the tlmo and were considered crazy. I ,
tell you there are certain necessary I
business lies.
Hob I don't believe It. I think a i
business man can get along better by j
telling the absolute truth. I
Ralston My boy, you've been work
lag too hard. You'ro crazy! Tou
couldn't tell the truth for one day. 1
Van Dusen Has he been lying'
again? '
Ralston I've Just oeen telling Bob
that he couldn't tell the truth, the ab-1
solute truth, for one duy and retain
any friends or do any business.
Van I aupposo If a man set out to.
toll the truth for un day that before
night aome one would kill him.
Bob I still believe that I could tell
the truth lndetlultcly.
Van When I was 0 years old I told
ray mother tho truth about something I
that happened at school what hap-1
yened at homo cured me.
Ralston My boy, as modern society
la constituted It Is as Impossible to
lhre without telling a lie as It Is to
4e business without deception.
Van You're right!
Ralston It's too bnd we have to ad
salt It. but It's the truth.
Dick I agree with you.
Ralston We're brought up that
way. Parents tell their children that
Santa Claus comes down the chimney
In a steam heuted flat. Little Mary
la told that the stork Is going to bring
her a baby brother, and she sits for
hours at the window watching for It
to come, and then they tell her the
tork came through the door while sho
waa asleep. You meet Smith on the
atreet In the morning. You say, "I
hope you slept well." That's a lie.
You don't care a damn If he never
aleeps.
i Dick The truth hurts people. An
attractive lie sounds Infinitely better
than a mere statement of truth.
Ralston The lawyer tells his client
he will win. Tho doctor tells his pa
tient he will get well.
Van And tho minister tolls his con
gregation they will go to heaven. It
Jan't the truth, but It's what they want
to hear.
Ralston And 'every divorce gives
the lie to in monotone! "wilt thou
love, honor and cherish her, forsaking
all others, keep thee only unto her ho
long as ye both shall live?"
Van "I will," .
Ralston "I will YouM
break U the wholn party If you told
tho truth nnd wild "I think I will."
Dick They Ho In every lino of busi
ness stores misrepresent their bargain
antes, ncwspapeis heir circulation,
banks their surplus, because business
demands attractive statements.
Hnlston- It took old Dr. Cook Just
one hour to convince the King of Den
mark ho had dlHcnwrcil tho north pole,
but It required two years for Limit.
I'eary to convince the Geographical
Society of the same fact, and lie was
telling tho Until, and when Hryan said
"OfMxI-li.v, good lurk, (loci bless ynu" to
Wilson, do ou think bo was H liing tho
truth? Ami when Wilson Mild: "Hill,
this parting breaks my heart," do you
think he really meant If,' Don't mak!
me laugh.
Dob Well, I'm entitled to my
opinion. 1 believe jnu can tell the
truth.
Van- Who- me?
Dob (Hi, im, I know ynu couldn't
I mean that I can toll t Im truth.
Pick- for how long?
Dob If 1 can tell the truth for one
hour I see no reason why I couldn't tell
