Where to Put a Kiss.

An esteemed young friend of the Phil
adelphia Times asks a funny question.
He wants to know where he shall put
his kisses. Probably any number of
people, without much thought, would
rush rashly forward TO tell him all
about it and consider the conundrum a
perfectly easy one. The problem. how
ever, is really very difficult, and anyone
who has had experience enough to know
what kissing is will shrink from quick
or direct advice on the subject.
AS matter of course the young man
who has kisses to give away will give
them to his girl if she is willing; if she
isn't willing-but that is so improbable
that il would be waste of time to say
anything about it. If n young man has
no girl of his own he will naturally
such is the waywardness of human ma
ture-find some one else's girl or girls,
and to some n good many girls are not
any too much of good thing. They
say it isn't such bad thing sometimes
when you find you have kissed the
wrong girl, if there can be any wrong
girl in matter like that.
But the trouble on the young mans
mind seems to be regarding the proper
place for the kiss. He does not feel
certain whether he should kiss his girl
on the lips, or the forehead. or the chin,
or the check, or the hand. There are
some young men who would regard the
poorest of all these chances as the ex-
treme of bliss. But such young men
lack the snap and enterprise which q
wide-awake and desirable girl rather
likes. The young man who hesitates
and trifles with uncertainty about the
proper site upon which to build his kiss
will lose the delight of kissing. If there
were worse fate he would deserve it.
There is, however, no worse fate.
Kissing the hand is a very neat but
colorless sort of compliment. 1t is I'M
satisfactory to both parties, they say.
We are also reliably informed that kiss
ing the forehead or the chin is cold
sort of thing and not largely INDUCED in
by people of good taste. The cheek, il
not too hard is understood to be very
fair kissing ground but good judges
have very generally agreed upon the
lips as offering superior inducements.
If his mouth is not too large or his
girls mouth too small. or if his girls
mouth is not too large and his too small,
perhaps the young man who wants the
Times advice had better stick to the
lips. If there is anything sweet in n
kiss-and doubtless there is-he will
find il there.

The American Girl Abroad.

We were calling on "The Fuchsia"

formed a simple feat as compared with

ing to 1.-The Fuchsia') by this milliner,

my dear? 1t is rumored that 1.-The Fu-

she thought there were far more dukes

With the advent of new pertecting print
ing machinery into our business, we are en-
couraged to believe we can successfully carry
out long cherished desire to furnish the
Weekly Blade direct to subscribers, postpaid,
for the very low price of One Dollar per
Year. While a dollar Weekly" is no
new thing, it has never before been attempt
ed by any publisher in this country to fur
nish so large and SO good a paper as the
Blade for one dollar per year. Consequently
the announcement we now make will he
startling to the newspaper fraternity. We
therefore boldly and fcarlessy declare that
from and alter this date the price of The
Weekly Blade shall be, to any and all, rich
and poor postpaid by mail, delivered at
your very door, as it were, ONE DOLLAR
per year. We do not calculate to reduce in
any way, either in size, quantity or quality,
but on the contrary shall continue to make
improvements at every opportunity, as has
been our rule The Blade is household

land, and nowhere can so much good reading
be found for the money Any one Of the
departments are worth the price of years

will run a whole year, and Nasty never fails
to give value received. Just how much We
give for one dollar: In the first place we
publish all the news. Then there are Sc

language, Science, Religion, Politics, very
reliable Markets, and, finally, the best House
hold Department for the ladies'. ever pub
lished, all of which, if published in book
form, would during the year make library
worth one hundred dollars. AT one dollar a
year we should double our circulation, and
shall be much disappointed if we do not.
We cannot allow a cash commission at that
price, but will allow one FREE copy for
every club of ten, and, by the way, a club Of
10 is easily raised for the Blade We want
every friend to raise us at least one club OF
ten, and thereby secure your own copy free
of cost We do not receive fractions of a
year at this rate, but short-time subscribers
should remit at the rate of ten cents a month.
We cheerfully send specimen copies to any
address, Send us the address of a dozen or
more of your friends to whom we can send
specimen copies 1t makes no difference
how many papers you take, you should have
the Blade anyhow at this price. 1t is a dol
lar wisely invested. A On March 81 we
shall present nice library of loo books to
the town having on that date the largest list
of subscribers to the Blade. A few Blade
subscribers in any town could take this libra
ny matter in hand, and in one dsy raise one
or two hundred subscribers. Remi. your

A fashionable Shoemaker on Women's
Feet

1.-The feet of Americans are, as a rule,
of smaller and-lighter build than the
feet of Engishmen, and have more arch
and higher insteps. | worked in the best
London shops before coming TO this
country, and know there are plenty of
big feet among the English aristocracy.
The feet of the American ladies are
smaller than those of English ladies, but
the American ladies are apt to distort
their feet in way that English ladies
do not. Now. by rights the last on
which a shoe is made ought to be three
sizes larger than the foot. There are
four sizes to an inch, so that would give
threc-quartcrs of an inch room to the
foot. An English woman will take such
measurement, but if you make shoes in
that way for American ladies YOU will
have them left on your hands. You can
not make the shoe more than from a
size and half TO two sizes above the
exact length of the foot. Anything /
can get my foot in can wear they
say, and so we give plenty of width be-
tween heel and ankle, so that they can
slip their feet in, and they don't seem to
mind how their toes are pinchcd togeth-
er when the foot settles into the shoe.
The result is the English women have a
freer, easier gait than American women"

chased bonnet of very old date. He
took It home to his wife and she drew
from its crown u piece of paper which
proved 10 be q bond for 800 francs.
This is strong argument in favor of
husbands buying their wives old style
bonnets. Although another bond might
not be found in hundred years. the
fact that such bonncts come cheaper
than the new style strongly recommends
the scheme. NorriSforn Herald
