Kissing.

Squire, your are older than I, and 1
suppose you will think all this sort of
thing is clear sheer nonsense; but depend
upon it, a kiss is a great mystery. There
Is many thing we know we can't explain,
still we are sure it is a fact for all that
Why should there be sort of magic in
shaking hands, which seems only a mere
form, and sometimes a painful one, too;
for some folks wiring your fingers off, al
most, and make you fairly dance with
pain. they hurt you so. 1t don't give you
much pleasure at any time. What the
ragic of it is ne can't tell, but so it is
for all that. 1t seems only a custom like
bowing. and nothing else; still there is
more in it than meets the eye. But a
kiss fairly electrifes you; it warns your
blood and sets your heart to beatin' like u
bass drum, and make your eyes twinkle
like stars on frosty night 1t amt
thing to be forgot. No language can ex-
press it, no letters will give the sound
Then what in nature is equal to the flavor
of It? What an aroma it has! 1t amt
gross, for you can't feed OH it. 1t don't
cloy, for the palate amt required to test
its taste. l: is neither visible, nor tangi-
BE, nor portable, nor transferable 1t
is not q substance, nor liquid, nor va
por. 1t has neither color nor form. In
agination, can't conceive it. 1t cant be
initiated nor forged. 1t is confined to no
CLINE or country, but is ubiquitous.
1t is disembodied when completed, but
instantly reproduced and so is immortal.
1t il as old as the creation, and yet is as
young and fresh as ever. 1t pre-existed,
still exists and always will exist. 1t per
vades ali nature. The breeze as it passes
kisses the rose, and the pendant vine
stoops down and hides with It's tendrils
its bushes, as it kisses the limpid stream
that waits in an eddy to meet it, and
raised its tiny waves like anxious lips to
receive it. Depend Hpou it, Eve learned
it in Paradise, and was taught It's beau
ties, virtues and varieties by an angel,
there Is something 50 transcendant in it
How it is adapted to all circumstances
There is the kiss of welcome and of part
ing, the long lingering, loving present-onc,
the stolen or the mutual one, the kiss Of
love, Of Joy, aud of sorrow, the seal OF
promise, and the receipt of fulflment. Is
it strange, therefore, that a woman is in
vincible whose armory consists of kisses,
smiles and tears! Is it any wonder that
poor old Adam was first tempted, and
then ruined! It is very easy for preach
ers to get up with long faces and tell US
that he ought to have been more of u
man. My opinion Is, if he had been less
of a man it would have been better for
him. But am not gOin' to preach; so
[ will get back to my story; but, Squire,
l shall always maintain to my dying day,
that kissing is sublime mystery.-SanS

a ShiIling's Worth.

4 fellow who came on the Railroad on
"Wednesday strolled about for some time
on the outskirts Of the city in search Of a
barber. He finally discovered one, and
requested the operator to take off a shil-
ling's worth of hair. The barber trim.
med bis locks very neatly, scraped up the
remainder in the handsomest style, and
then combed and brushed him up till bis
head looked as if it belonged to some
other person than himself.
Are you done! said the stranger, as the
barber removed the napkin from bis neck
yes, sir, said the barber, with polite
bow.
Are you certain that you took off q
sbilling's worth >.
Yes, sir: iL.eres a glass;; you can look
for yourself. -.
Well, said the stranger, if you thl@S
you have shilling'S worth off, | dom t
know as I've got any change, so you may
