Tho Art of Kissing.

People will kiss. Yet not one in q hun.
dred knows how to extract bliss from
lovely lips, any more than they know how
to make diamonds from charcoal. And
yet 1t is easy, at least Tor US. First know
whom you are going to kiss. Don't make
a mistake, although a mistake may be
good. Don't jump up like a trout for a
fly, and smack woman on her neck, or
the ear, or the corner Of her forehead, or
on the end Of her nose. The gentleman
should be little the taller. He should
have a clean face, kind eye, and mouth
tull OF expression. Don't kiss everybody.
Don't sit down 10 1t. Stand up. Need
not be anxious about getting in crowd
Two persons are plenty to corner, and
catch kiss; more persons would spoil
thesport. Take the lett hand ofthe lady
In your right; let your hat go ,to-any
place out OF the way; throw the left hand
gently over the shoulder, OF the lady,
and let It fall down the right aide.
Do not be in hurry; draw her gently
lovingly, to your heart. Her left hand Is
in your right; lei there be no Impression
to that, not like the grip Of q vice, but q
gentle clasp, full Of electricity, thought
and respect. Do not be in a hurry. You
are heart 10 heart, Look down into her
halfclosed eyes. Gently, but manIully,
press her to your bosom. Stand firm, BE
brave, but don't be in hurry. Her LIPS
arc almost open. Lean slightly forward
with your head, not the body. Take good
aim; the lips meet; the eyes close; The
heart opens; the soul rides the storms
troubles and sorrows Of life don't be in I
hurry; heaven opens before you; TIL
world shoots under your feet, as q meteol
flashes across the evening sky don't b
alraid)the heart torgets It's bitterness, AMI
the art Of kissing Is ieArn'tl No fuss NJ
noise, no futtering and sqirmiug likl
hook.impaled worms. Kissing don't hurt
nor does it require an act OF Congress t
make 1t legal.

punished with from ten to twenty years
