NOMORE KISSING.

Kissing is going out of fashion,
u least that is what fashion au-
thorities are telling us. The beau
tiful act that at times conveys per-
feet love, sympathy, and what
words and hand-clasps are made
qu.te to express, has been so abu-
ed that fashion has had to take
IL in hand and issue q decree
against it-and no wonder!
We all know the woman who
kisses everybody; she kisses when
abe comes and she kisses when
che goes; in the street, and on
every occasion; it matters not that
she hates you-kissing is merely
her everyday salutation. The ha-
bit has grown upon her until it is
IN unconscious act.
Those who are authorities on
hygiene are much exercised over
The danger to health of promiscu-
ous kissing. Prof Miller, OF Ber-
lin, published some time ago a pa
per on the human mouth as the
centre for the spread of certain
diseases. Those which he emu
merates are pneumonia, tonsilitis'
dipththeria, consumption, catarrh
in some of its forms, inflammation
Of the mouth of throat, decay Of
the teeth, etc. These diseases ell
have their cause, according to this
suthor, in certain bacteria which
develop in the mouth, and which
sre transferred from one mouth
TO another by kissing and also by
inhsling the breath.
This seems unpleasant to read
of, yet it is women that should
read it, for they indulge in kiss
ing to ridiculous extent; permit
its abuse, and indulge in it where
..h;ldron ara conoerned. The rea.
lization of this came home to the
writer very forcibly. On the oc'
casion when assisting in caring
, for q consumptive, the observa
ton was made that visitors did
not hesitate to kiss the dying pa
tient who, as rule. was annoyed
by the attention.
As to the indiscriminate kissing
of children it is positively a cruel
ty. Among the most disagreeabl'
membranes of the writers
childhood is being compelled t
kiss q certain old lady. When
ever she was announced . private
crying spell was INDUCED in be
fore going into the psrlor. Ye
for years she had to be kissed
because she had the absurd habi
of kissing everybody.
If kissing as a popular indul
gence is finally discouraged fash
ion will be placing the feminine
world in its debt.
We publish the above at tn
request of a person who is oppos
ed to kissing, or at least, who il
opposed to grown persons kissing
children.
