How to osculate pronerlr.

If you are tall and she is short, you must
stand erect, draw her close to your side, bend
your head somewhat SO that your lips will
rest respectfully on her forehead, place her.
right hand over her shoulder, then your left
arm around her waist. By this time her left
hand will be snugly imprisoned in Your right
hand. She will raise her face to look up at
you. Draw your arm for a moment from
around her waist and gently tip her head
backward and to the side, then-well, that is
one way.
The other is, if she is tall and you are short.
stand on your toes, not on her toes, mind.
Draw her head down nicely until her lips are
on a level with her forehead. By that time
your lips will be on a level with her diamond
collar button. You will look up to her, of
course. o eyes, from their proximity to
her lips, will read what she is about to say.
If their motion bodies any good, then it is
safe for you to make the exertion. If they
bode evil, why, a la Aunt Bridget, "stay
where you are, stay where you are"
Next, if you are both of the same height
and proportions, you will-but there, space
is valuable.-St. Louis Critic.

What the Seventh Gun Meant.

1t is less customary now than in "ye palmy
days Of the drama" for members of the audi
ence to have their little say. Still, that this
does occur occasionally was proved by an in
cident that's said to nave happened in Buffalo
during a recent production of Josephine.
The emperor's sister, Pauline, had just ex-
planned that if a girl was born five guns
would be fired, and if it was a boy, the mum
Der of volleys reached 10l.
Bang! went the first gun, the audience and
actors listening intently. The fifth gun
doomed, and the firing seemed to cease. "a
girl" sneered Pauline, completely disguised.
Boom! went the sixth gun. "a boyi'' cried
the actors and a large number of excited
auditors. Boom! went the seventh gun.
''Twins!" shouted a roguish youth in the gal
lery, and the curtains went down amidst
roars of laughter.

executioner. Atkinson, however, has always
taken all the obloquy, and is regarded as the
hangman.
Atkinson is a bit of a thinker. He saws
that even electricity as a means of execution
will not last long. He doesn't believe in cap
ital punishment, he tells The New York Sun.
He surely ought to know something about it,
considering the number of people he has
swung off. He says that hanging makes a
martyr of a tough among his gang, and
pretty soon, instead of being scared off, some
OF them come up to go through the same pro-
cess. Before the happy state of affairs comes

Canada he could not be extradited. When
it was discovered that he had been stupid
enough to d forgery to his other crimes
they felt more cheerful, for a forger can be
taken back to the scene of his crime when
caught, whether he has crossed an interna-
tional boundary or not. At first there was a
question whether in his case this could be
done, because he had taken care to redeem
the forged paper himself before his fight.
The best legal minds of the capital agreed,
however, that this fact had no bearing on the
case; that forgery was forgery. and a forger
was extraditable.

was helping to build, and the man he was
helping was the hangman. He went on with
the job, however, and other similar jobs, and
occasionally took a hand at the hanging. At
last the hangman died, and Atkinson sue
ceeded him. But he kept at his trade of car
penter, and took an assumed name. Atkin-
son is not his real name, and very few who
associate with him and his family know of
the sixty-one people he has launched into
eternity.
His method of hanging divides the job into
several parts, SO that no one may be said to
perform the act. Atkinson drops the moose
