is not merely an old fashioned custom; it is
a strictly natural one. and as usual in such
cases, we may find physiological reason,
if we will only take the pains to search for
it. The animals cultivate friendship by
the sense Of touch. as well by the senses Of
smell, hearing and sight; and for this pur
pose they employ the most sensitive parts
Of their bodies. They rub their noses to-
gether. or they lick one anotbers tongues
Now. the hand is a part of the human body
in which the sense Of touch is highly de-
veloped; and, after the ma inner of the
animals. we not only like to see and
hear our friend I've do not usually smell

recognition,) we also touch him, and pro-

quite satisfied with the Information convey
ed BY the fingers. weapply it to the lips
and rub II gently upon them. We do so,
because we know by experience that the
sense OF touch Is more acutely developed
In the lips than in the hands. Accordingly
when we wish to reciprocste the warmer
feelings we are not content with the contact
OF the hands. and we bring the lips into
service. A shake of hands suffices for
friendship; IN uDdemonstrative England at
least; but a kiss is the token of more ten
