ooh, yes," said the professor, in an
swer to the reporters question, this is
what we call kissing school, You see
I am an American who has spent q
number of years abroad, principally III
Paris. l was very much surprised on
arriving there to find such schools as
this one, which have just Established,
very plentiful. To be able to kiss we'll
and put into the action that gentle ami
nation which must be combined with
willful resignation to the act is a sci
ence over which very few people in
America have control. All your Amer
ican kissers do their kissing impulsively
and without considering the great ad-
vantage and ethereal pleasure to be
found in calm, cool deliberation and
premeditation. My wife, who is a ma
tive of France, and who was reputed to
be the most graceful kisser in Paris,
gave a young man his first lesson in
kissing the other day, and when the or
deal was over she nearly tainted. The
poor fellow grabbed her in his arms
and squeezed her almost to death, kiss
ing her everywhere but on the mouth. :"
"Say, professor, don't you get jeal-
ousp'
"MeP Oh, no! You see it is purely
business transaction between my wife
and the young man who wants to learn
how to kiss, and if / find that she is
putting any supernuous sentiment into
his oscillations he gets the bounce.
Very handsome young men in Paris
who came to our school used to make
an impression on my wife, and she got
mashed on some OF them. AS a result,
/ boar scars upon my person that were
received in duels. OF course, give the
kissing lessons to the girls, but I never
allow my fascination for some of them
to overcome my better judgment.
"What is there in kissingP just as
much, if not more, than there is in eat
ing. The next time you go to see your
girl, young man, kiss her lightly and
with deliberation. If she happen to be
standing just put your left arm around
her waist and draw her to you. OF
course, she'll be bashful. She viii turn
her head away. Then you must put
your right hand to her left cheek, the
hand open, and draw her face around to
you. Then look her straight in the
eyes for half minute, bend your head
down slowly and prepare for action.
Don't puckerup your lips. Allow them
to remain in natural repose. Don't
put your mouth against hers as if you
were going to knock her teeth out.
When the lips are forced together the
teeth come in contact with the lips and
form a resistance which is decidedly
unpleasant. The lips should just meet,
and there should just be the slightest
pressure. Then little playful motion
of the lips by the kisser and the kissed
sends through you thrill that is unc-
ton to the soul itself. When you can
do this you will be an accomplished
kisser. OF course, there are other and
more advanced stages in the art OF kiss
ing. There is that delicious, lovable,
abandoned kiss that Mary Anderson
gives TO Ingomar when she plays
Parthenia. Kissing can be made more
effective and much more delicious by
assuming certain attitudes, such as the
actresses assume. Philadelphia Record.
