How to Enjoy a Kiss.

The editor of the Wilmington, Dell
Herald, who appears to know all about
kissing says: OF course you must he taller
than the lady yon intend T. kiss. Take
her right hand in yours and draw her gen
tly towards you. Pass your left arm over
her right shoulder diagonally down across
her back under her left arm, and press her
to your bosom. At the same time she will
throw her head back, and you have MOTH
ing to do but lean a little forward and press
your lips to hers, and the thing is DONE
Don't make noise over it as if you were
firing percussion caps, or trying the water
cocks of steam engine, nor bounce dowr
upon it like a hungry hawk upon an IN
nocent dove, but gently fold the damse
in your arms, without derangins the econ
omy of her tippet or ruifle, and by swee
pressure upon her mouth revel in the
sweet blissfulness of your situation, with
out smacking your lips on it as you would

The Albany Register.
True. We never thought of that. Adam
never played marbles. He never play ed
"hokey." He never drove a tandem Of
boys with a string. He never skated on a
pond, or played ball, or rode down a hill
on hand sleigh. And Eve-she never
made a playhouse she never rolled a

quilt, or dressed doll, They never play
ed blind mans buff, or pussy wants cor

which childhood disports itself. How bland
their age must have been, wherein no me-
mores ofearly youth came swelling up in
their hearts, no vision of childhood floating
back from the past, no mothers voice chant
ing lullaby to the ear of fancy in the
still hours of night, no fathers words Of
kindness speaking from the church-yard

that have ever lived, had no CHILDHOOD
