CURIoUs DEFINITION OF A KIss.--The
following is an extract from love let
ter written 1879, translated from the
German:
"What is a kiss? A kiss, as it were,
is zeal of expressing our sincere at
tachments; the pledge of our future
union; a dumb, but at the same time
audible language of living heart; a
present which at the same time it is
given is taken from us tho impression
of an ardent attachment on an iyory
o0ial pIcss, tie Striking OF two filnts
against each other; crimson balsam
for n love wounded heart; sweet bit
of the lip-an efiectionate pinching of
the mouth-a delicious dish which is
eaten with scarlet spoons--a sweet
meat which does not satisfy our hun
ger-a fruit which is planted and
gathered at the same time-and the
quickest exchange of questions and
answers of two lovers; the fourth de-
gree of love"
