part of the mind that it almost unconscioasly colors llie incidents we would relate and makes them seem essentially different from the reality evenwhsa we mean to be tenth ful for instance in testifying in court it is a notorious fact that no two witnesses ever give their testimony exactly alike when de scribing the same scene and conscientious ly anxioae to give it jast as it happened this i think is largely dae to the fact that when yoang we do not learn to observe accurately the three- year jld baby sees something he cannot understand and gives his own idear of tne incident when in stead of correcting him and teaching him exactly what has happened we iaach at his cunning use of words and odd ways of seeing things and letit go scjtte by little the habit of inaccur acy is formed until we hardly attempt to give an exjici relation of anything think ing if we get within certain limits of truth falness that we are doing very well a man celebralled for his accuracy said that he owed this qcality to the following circamstance he hid a sister who was blind and the lave between them was so sincere that ha tried his best to be eyes for her so every evening as the family gathered round the fire he recalled every pretty scene or iatercsting incident of the day for her benefit and hi feeling3 of ten der pity for her infirmity made him feel that he mast present these pictures with absolute fidelity that she might see thera with her minds eye as he had with his bodily organ so he taaght himself accuracy until his description of any event was looked cpoa as almost photographic in its sincereity and this quality made him both successful and famous in his business relations it is a quality we might all cultivate to great advantage most important ia it to train
