Three Kinds ofKentucky Kisses.

Outside of those kisses bestowed By
affectionate relatives, there can be but
three recognized classes of the genus
kiss-as viewed from a male stand
point. The first comes upon your lips
as IL they were touched by smoothplan-
ed, cool and insenate board, without
life or animation. unproductive of any
agreeable sensation whatever, and not
worth being garnered with hearts
mementoes of golden, happy hours.
The second is a gentle, velvety kiss
very sweet and pleasant, but vexatiously
unsatisfying to an ardent nature. and
but little more pronounced than fas-
cinating cousin would like to bestow.
The third Is such as coral, tempting,
passionate lips bestow, for about ten
seconds. upon your lips-''a lingering
sweetness long drawn out'--that not
only steals your breath, but seems to
be drawing your very soul from out
Jour body. A fellow may forget his
mother--and about harvesting such a
kiss he is sure to forget her-but the re-
collection OF that undwarfed, honest
kiss will abide with him source of JOY.
