unless the angels kiss,
How dull must be their blissl'


Yet with theories of angelic, seraphic, or
cherubic kissing we have naught to do. Plain
human Tipping is the fact before us which
demands an inquiry into its causes and con-
quences. Kisses may be divided as follows.
first, the kiss of courtesy, imprinted on the
hand of some antiquated dame by the young
elegant, who would fain become her residuary
legatee. Next is the kiss Of affection, by
some authorities aptly termed the kiss of
custom, this is placed sometimes on the lips,
more often on the cheek, especially if papa
is chewer of tobacco or a consumer of
whisky. Next is the kiss of rehabilitation;
this is bestowed by girls upon each other in
the presence of young men, and is almost
universally denounced by unprejudiccd OBJ
servers as a wicked waste of raw material
Last in our list, but not least, is the kiss of
love. Let us speak with bated breath. This,
in its marvellous variations, is the key to all
the secrets of life; the inspiration of poets,
musicians and painters. Oh, when four lips
join to take one purple pull, there flashes
through two hearts sensation before which
the glory of champagne evaporates, and the
deliciousness of deviled chicken is no more.
But if the kiss of two souls meeting is fore
taste of immortality, what is the kiss at part
ing? All, what is is but the solemn, sacred,
solitary seal imprinted deeply on the tomb
of hope by the angel of despair2"

Courage is always the greatest when
blended with meekness. And never does
the human soul appear so strong ms when it
forgoes revenge and dares TO forgive an in
jury.

Kisses for the Million.

The Peoria Call man-unlike the Call man
of our city-is not ashamed to investigate
this tender subject. He says: 1.-THE inventors
of the osculatory art are popularity supposed
to have been Adam and Eve; although it is
barely possible that so subtle science may
have originated in a still higher order of
beings, for, as the poet insinuates-

A ROMANTIC STORY

The following story has come to the
hearing OF the Atlanta (Ga.) C0nstitu.
ton "Many years ago there was
young fellow named BIgelow sent by
his father to Yale College. The father
was very iich, and the youngster lived
in grand style at the university. Sud
denly the old gentleman broke up and
had 10 withdraw his son from college.
The boy, however, ielt the necessity
of an education, and determined to
have one anyhow. He therefore went
to work and learned a trade as a ma.
chinist Will l. - -
anytnug 10 d5 WITH him. Tho young
ladies with whom he had been o great
favorte failed to recognize him when
they met him. One day when going
from his work he met wealthy young
lady who had been his friend He had
bis tin dinner bucket over his arm, and
supposed she would cut him as the
rest had done. She smiled pleasantly,
addressing him as Tom, and insisted
that he should call and see her as he
had always done She said, There is
no change IN you as far as am con.
cerned.' The years rolled on. The
young work.boy became immensely
wealthy, and is now the Mayor of
New Haven, with an income Of. slOO,.
600 year, and owner of factory in
which 800 men and women are EN-.
ployed. The young girl grew to wo.
manhood and married, Her husband
borrowed a largesum Of money from Mr..
Bigelow, and died before he had paid
it, leaving his family with but little
property. Mr.. Bigelow sent her, with
bis coincidence, q receipted note for her
husbands Indebtedness and now the
son of Bigelow, the millionaire, is go.

woman who was faithful and true to
the young work.boy at college"

A PREA CHER .SIVINDLBD,

The other evening, when the snow
was on the ground, Rev. Charles Haas,
who lives at 253 Brush street, received
call in the shape Of two pilgrims who
wished to tread together to the rosy
path of welded bliss The husband
was rather rough-looking customer,
and his girl clumsy-looking maiden,
who from shame. facedness or some
other reason did not remove her veil
The twain were asked the usual ques-
tons, the female answering in con.
strained voice, and then the ceremony
was proceeded with and finished. The
bridegroom pulled out $40 bill, and
the reverend gentleman, not having
the change, sent out and got it, handed
slj back, and the newly married couple
departed A few days afterward Mrs.
Haas gave a sudden sniff and said,
"Did you see that woman's feet p Mr..
Haas acknowledged that he bad not
taken particular notice. Mrs. Haas
mind was working like Tonnysons
"Princess" when she conned over the
visit Of her disguised suitor and his
companions, and finally said that they
were like men and then a new light
breaking in, she added, "Why-these
--are-menl" SO Mrs. Haas, by the
same train of feminine induction, said,
"That woman was a man. saw her
his feet. Let's look at them in the
snow. Sure enough the tracks TO the
gate looked like the foot prints Of two
men. And next day, as il 20 make
confirmation doubly sure, the 800 bill
was discovered 10 be counterfeit, and

LADY BYRON'S ANSWER TO LORD By
RON'S ssFAREWELL.''

Tin the whole range OF English literature, Their
is not, In our opinion, production either IL
prose or verse, that combines within itself more
expression of feeling more real. outspoken earn
est sentiment, than Lady Byron's reply to he
faithless husband. Byron's Farewell was a
ironicai bidding adieu to a heart he had wanton
ly crushed. But Lady B. has, in defending her
self from his irony, turned the tables on hin
most completely. Her reply is scathing, ant
must have cut Byron to the quick. We call espe
cial attention to tn proud and noble def1anc
expressed in the last verse. The poem has doubt
less been read by many of our readers, but
will repay another perusal]
Yes! farewell-forever farewell
Thou, thyself, hast fixed our doom,
Bace hopes fairest bl ossoms wither,
Meier again for me to bloom.
Unforgiving thou hast called me-
Didst thou ever say forgive?
For the wretch whose viles beguiled thee.
Thou alone didst seem to live.
Short the space which time has given,
To complete thylove's decay;
By unhaIlowed passion driven,
Soon thy heart was taught to stray.
Lived for me that feeling tender
Which thy verse SO we'll can show,
From my arms why didst thou wander:
My endearments why forego?
Oh! too late thy heart was barred!
Oh too soon to me twas shown.
That thy love once but shared,
And already 1t is flown.
Wrapt in dreams of Joy abiding,
On thy breast NJ y head has lain.
In thy love and truth coDfding,
Bliss me- er can know again.
That dark hour did first discover
In thy soul the hideous stain
Would these eyes had closed forever,
Never to weep thy crimes again.
But the impious WISH o heaven.
From the record blotted be;
Yes. yet would live, Oh. Byron,
For the babe I've borne for thee,
In whose lovely features Clet me
All my weakness here confess,
While the struggling tears permit me-
All the fathers can trace
He whose image never leaves me.
He whose image still prize,
Who this bitterest feeling gives me,
Still to love where despise
With regret and sorrow rather.
When our childs first accents flow,
I will teach her to say father,
Dut HIS SullG she uc oiidii AuoW'
Whilst tomorrow and tomorrow
Wakes me from a widowed bed;
ON another 8 arm no sorrow
Wilt thou feel. no tear will shed.
the worlds approval sought not.
When tore myself from thee;
Gifts praise or blame thought not
What is praise or blame TO me?
He SO proud-so loved-adored,
From his heart my image drove,
On my head contempt has poured,
And preferred wanton's love.
Thou art proud, but mark me, Byron,
I've heart as proud as thine own;
Soft to love, but hard as iron,
When contempt is DER 1t thrown,
But, iarewell-Ill not upraid thee,
Never, never wish thee ILL
Wretched though thy crimes have made m
If thou canst he h Apply still.

By Request.
LORD RYEON'S FAREWELL TO HIS
WIFE.

Fare thee well and IL forever,
Still for ever, fare thee well,
Even though unforgiying, never
'Gainst thee shall my heart rebel,
Would that breast were barred before thee,
Where thy head so oft hath lain,
While that placid sleep came DER thee,
Which thou ne'er canst know again
Would that breast, by thee glanced over
Every inmost thought could show
Then thou wouldst at last discover
Twas not we'll to spurn 1t so.
Though the world for this commend thee
Though it smile upon the blow.
Even its praises must offend thee.
Founded on another's woe
Though my many faults defaced me-
Could no other arm be found,
Than the one, which once embraced me.
To inflict cureles wound?
Yet, oh yet, thyself deceive not;
Love nay sink by slow decay,
But by sudden wrench, believe not
Hearts can thus be torn away.
Still thine own its life retaineth -
Still must mine, though bleeding beat;
And the undying thought which paineth,
Is-that we no more may meet
These are words of deeper sorrow,
Than the wall above the dead;
Both shall live, but every morrow
Wake us from widowed bed.
And when thou wouldst solace gather.
When our child's first accents flow,
Wilt thou teach her to say "Fatherl"
Though his cares she must forego
When her little hands shall press thee.
- {,
Think OF him, whose prayer shall bless thee
Think Of him thy love had bIess'd7
Should her lineaments resemble
Those thou never more may'st see,
Then thy heart will softly tremble
With pulse yet true to me.
All my faults perchane thou knowest,
All my madness none can know.
All my hopes, where'er thou goest.
Wither-- yet with thee they so.
Every feeling hath been shaken,
Pride, which not world could bow,
Bows to thee by thee forsaken.
Even my soul forakes me now.
But It's done - all words are Idle -
Words from me are vainer still
But the thoughts we cannot bride
Force their way without the will.
Fare thee we'll thus disunited,
Torn from every nearer tie,
Scared in heart and lone and blighted
More than this scarce can die.
