DIFFERENT KINDS OF KISSING.

There are ten different kinds of kiss
sess mentioned in the Bible, viz: Sal
utation, valedictiOn, reconciliation,
subsection, appreciation, admiration,
affection, amorousness, deception and
treachery, A mothers kiss comes
pure and unselfish from the heart; a
wife's confding, mixed with devotion
and love; a sisters sacred, pure and
unreserved; a fiancee's, ardent, hope
full and emotional; coquette's, heart
less; mans, passion, devotion and
love.

the presence of her court, kissed Char

CHARACTER IN KISSING.

There is as much character display
ed or manifested in kissing as in shak-
ing of hands The kiss, full and plump
upon the lips, indicates affection or
love; upon the cheeks, quasi affec-
ton and social acquaintanceship-I
like you; upon the forehead, admira-
ton for intellect platonic love; up
on the hand, hint that the lips would
be far better and more desirable, also
great reverence for the person thus sa-
luted

THE PHILOSOPHY OF KISSING.
WHAT ARE KISSES?

The invisible links of love, affection
and regard, and sometimes, like those
. of Jacob, treacherous and deceptive,
something to be enjoyed but not to be
defined, described or painted. They
are the sweet and fragrant flowers that
bloom in the garden of the heart and
distill their sweetness to the lips. 1t is
the amorous electricity of ourynatures
discharged when brought in proximity
with those we love and admire. Like
sermons, they require two heads and
application" Women in kissing each
other display their affection, regard
and social acquaintanceship; in kissing
the opposite sex, more of love, anna
tiveness, admiration and esteem. Moth
ing disgusts a woman more than to kiss
or be kissed by one that she does not
regard, love or admire; her emotional
nature recoils in the act But when
she loves she throws her whole heart
into her lips, and no one can mistake
such kiss; it is the magnum bonum
of all emotions with lovers.

KISSING.
The bliss OF all blisses
Will venture to say,
Are the sweet stoien kisses
Taken in LIES young day.

A correspondent Of the Savannah
Republican, who has graduated in the
art of kissing" and knows all about
it, gives the following in reference
thereto:
1.-THE first kiss mentioned in the BIZ
bic was one of deception when Jacob
kissed his father Isaac and told him
he was Esau. 1t is to be presumed,
however, that our old and iliustrlous
forefather Adam, was not destitute OF
the innate gallantry that so character
ICES his sons of the present day and
that he gave our good old Eve a real
genuine kiss of affection and love as
soon as he saw her, for he was not at
all backward in claiming her and CIV
ing her a name-woman-and at the
same time saying that man shall leave
his father and mother and cleave unto
his wife; but he said nothing about
the wife leaving her home, and by in
ference, we presume, the son-in-law
was to be supported by his father-in-
law.
THE PHILOSOPHY OF KISSING.
1t is necessity OF our nature, that is, of
the nature which is not mere cold rea-
soning intellect, but a sentiment, an
emotion as well. Mere reasoning in
tellect is never moved by sentiment or
emotion; it is stoical in its workings;
while sentiment and emotion is ever
impulsive, and springs from the heart.
Tnfallact IL masculine and ohieetive
emotion is feminine and subjective;
aud as woman is more emotional in
ger nature, she gives utterance thereto
through her lips by kissing, and to kiss
is as natural with her as talking, and
talking as breathing. Nevertheless,
they are dear creatures. Man has a
triune nature-animal, emotional, and
intellectual-and when nicely harmon
lied he is as near perfection as nature
intended.

bor OF wooden buildings already standing, na
we'll aB to prohibit tho inoroaao. To this ond,
tho fro-ortlinanoo ought to impose grchtor and
moro specific reBtriotiona upon tho onlarging or
repairing Of wooden buildings. Since tho fire Of
1871 1t has boom tho practice to mo7c back

brick walls In front Of them In orlor
to provide room for Htoroa or allops. In
many ustanceB, en,nll frame buildings havo boon

Intervening apnco utilized for Hhop purposes,
whitc tho wooden buildings inside ROMAN ms
thoy Voro. Various dovicos have boon adopted
throughout tho city, aud particularly OH State
street and Wabash avonuo, to improve tho rent-
ing va!ue Of property and at tho eamo timo avoid
tho intent OF tho flro-ordinanco. II wo may
over hopo to socuro ordinary protection against
great con1agrationa, 1t can only bo through tho
steady dcoronBo Of wooden dissricsB. Nothing
should be permitted to check Tits gradual do
oreaso, which would not seriously affect any
body.
The Hs1sted street fro should also diroct tho
attention Of tho Common Council to tho necoa-
atty for extending tho flro-limits to tho Houth-
wesscrn portion Of tho city that is not now In
cludod. South of Twonty-eixth stroot and woet

ly increasing, because tho prosent ordinance doos

continuous draft for fro onco started.
Tho location Of this immense and growing
wooden district Ia such as to place
tho most valuable residence portion Of
tho city in constant peril Tho business
district Of tho South sido Is kowiao joopardizcd,
though hardly to tho Hnmo extont. II It be
urged that tho extension Of tho Aro-llmits TO
this district would DO special hardship upon tho
poor people, we anHwer that no olaas would suf-
fer more than the occupants Of those wooden
touomonts, and no class can afford to incur tho
danger Of o second hre in Chicago lko that OF

and If an extension Of tho flro-ltmits, and pro-
hibition against enlargement and repnir OF framo
