baby boy Of years declined to kiss bis
grandmamma because be said be didn't
want 70 swallow the red stuff. Because OF
his good taste, he was promptly whipped
and sent 70 bed. Now, that small boy was
perfectly right This question Of letting
children kiss everybody. and, indeed,
forcing them 70 1t, is decidedly objection
able. | don't wonder that sometimes the
poor little souls resolutely kick.
MANS IDEA OF KISSING.
There is nothing in this world quite so
sweet as kissing baby; indeed it's the only
kiss worth having. To see 10 submit 70 it Is
beautiful. 1t fixes its sweet, dainty, per-
fumey little mouth like an o, and waits for
you TO discover Just what mouthful Of the
breath of Araby you get when you put your
lips to it. A mans idea Of a kiss is very
funny. In the first place he throws il as he
would base ball-with entirely too much
force. A kiss ought to be a memory in
second, and as delicate as = rose lsar. A
mans idea OF kiss is that it ought to sug-
gest porous plaster, or q postage stamp.
Then, like Scotch whisky, a mans kiss is
inclined to be a little smoky. o, no. they've
no idea how to kiss The truth OF it is that
one should kiss a baby in the mouth.
woman friend on the cheek. daughter or
son on the forehead-and a sweetheart,
well, let a sweetheart kiss you on the throat
or your hair-any place but on your lips.
THE WOMAN WITH BANG.
By-the-by, apropos of hair, should like
TO say that this is time when the woman
with u bang is most unhappy. She needn't
set her heart on its being beautiful. for it's
as uncertain as a Cleveland democrat The
reason is that 1t wants to be- a short bang,
permitting some of the forehead to show, so
that the idea that the future mothers of our
country are all idiots will not be conveyed
to the locker on. Now it is difficult to make
q short bang fluffy. and yet that is desired,
too Irons, queer-shaped kid rollers, bits of
curling paper, all sorts Of things are used to
try and make that bang stay as it ought; ;
out it won't, and the result will be that the
American woman will rise up in her might
and go through the summer with an un-
curled bang and look exactly as if she had
escaped from Sing Sing.
THE FUTURE OF THE BANG.
1t is not a pleasing outlook But then
there are great many things that are not
pleasing. 1t is just possible that this bang
question may not seem Of great importance
to mankind; but assure you that il is, for
until we women get it fully settled as to the
future of the bang, we will not be in the
best tenpers imaginable, aud, no matter
how upset he may be himself, a man does
like u woman to be in good temper. There
are certain things that he eleos as being
special prerogatives of hers, and he desires
that the possession of these adjuncts shall
have an outward, visible sign. II she is bali
a woman she looks pleasant and does what
he wants, and then he will return the COM
pliment.
WHAT MAN WANTS IN WOMAN.
What does G man want in a womanl
Well, as 1 said before, he wants her to be
in good temper; it makes her more agree
able company for him.
He wants her to be dressed and to act
like lady, for then she is great credit to
him.
He wants her to be pleasant to any man
be introduces to her, and yet she must man
age to make the man understand that her
heart is true to Poll, and she is only being
polite to him because the dear one wishes it,
He wants her to like to eat the dishes thvt
he prefers, for then he can chuckle and tell
people how he has educated her to being
quite a gourmet.
He wants her TO agree with him about
theology, religion and science, and then he
can appl I'D himself and think how much
she has gained by associatiug with such a
clever man.
He wants her to do as he likes. dress as
he likes and think as he likes. He's right !;
she's weaker of body and brain than he is,
my dear friend The cleverest woman In
the world likes to be mastered or else she
wouldn't be snubbed as she is by messenger
boy, or frightened by a mouse. The mau
who masters her Is the one who gains her
respect An intimate acquaintance with
pretty women, clever women, loving women
has forced this knowledge on me, and | give
it, too, as the decided opinion of Bah.
