The story ofa Kiss.

A New York Fifth lyente belle went
10 the theatre. On returning home af-
Ter the performance she discovered that
her breastpin. which was quite valuable,
had been stolen. She was very sorry,
for the breastpin was II present A few
days afterwards the young lady received
the following letter:
"fhe writer Of these lines has the
honor to inform you that he knows
where your broastpin Is, and will return
it cheelfully under certain conditions.
Il do not expect to receive reward
in money, since | regard Il as exceed
ingly vulgar TO accept money from
lady whom idolize as much as do
you. On the other hand, II would be
very stupid in me 10 return you your
breastpin without getting some enquiva-
lent.
Taking into consideration my con-
sumng love for YOU'LL return the miss
ing ornament for single kiss from
your rosy lips.
Tomorrow morning | viii be at the
corner Of Madison avenue and Fifty
sixth street with the missing jewelry. II
you are willing TO pay my price ] will,
after pressing kiss on the aforesaid
lips, press the breastpin in your hand.
No questions asked (Sgned) Ono Of
Your Admirers.
The young lady did not know what
70 do. She wanted to get her breastpin
back, but she did not care to pay the
price. She hit upon The idea Of sending
her servant girl in her place.
The servant girl put in an appear

She was heavily yelled. a well dressed
gentleman approached and asked;

The stranger familiarly embraced her
on the European plan and simultane-
onsly imprinted large 3x7 kiss on her
mouth that caused the policeman on the
corner to start. lie thought il WAS a
pistol shot

marked after the formality had been

THE FULTON GIRLS.
The Way They Play 1t Fine Upon the
Boys.

surp Use parties are not so numer-
GUS as of yore, and kissing games
are not so popular as dancing. Their
indulgence is rare, but at one, the
Junior female element insisted on be-
ing permitted TO show their brethren
something new, They had founded a
new order, it was explained, and
wished to initiate the boys into its
mysteries, They took possession of
the front parlor and closed the fold
ing doors, leaving one of their num-
Der to guard. The gentlemen found
one of their crowd besrdless
Youth, Tom Bolton-had disappear
ed. and wondered what had become
Of him they learned to their sorrow.
The lodge being in readiness for the
reception of candidates, l. of the
young men was escorted into the
room. He found four blushing
maidens standing in a row in the cor
ner of the room, with a chair in front
Of them.
Upon this he was seated and blind
folded, and then told that one of the
girls would kiss him, If he could
guess her name he would be privileg-
ed to repeat the OSCILLATION. or
! course, he made a miserable failure,
but instead of being allowed to retire
was compelled to occupy a seat on
the opposite side of the o Just
imagine his feelings when the next
victim had been led in and had been
prepared for the sacrifice, to see the
missing, beardless youth, Tom Boil
ton, rise up ghost-like from behind
the girls, imprint a good, sound
smack on the uplifted and ~expectant
lips of the candidate, and then dodge
back to his place of concealment.
One after another the young men
were vlctimized. The fun of it was,
though, to hear some of them de-
mand more than one trial before the
removal of the hoodwinks-one, a
well-known physician, DR.. Dedman,
not being content with less than
three kisses. He was enthusiastic
over their sweetness, until the sweet
was turned to gall as he saw the
boy salute his successor on the
throne of mystery.
