Playing Into the Hands Of Forxers.

From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
Prussian named Lautz has invented q
writing paper which will be heard OF In the
criminal courts before long. II is Of the
same appearance as any other writing ma
terial, but a discovery as to its properties
has caused the German government to de-
clare its manufacture illegal and a patent
has been refused. 1t is composed OF parch-
ment glue, asbestos and the ordinary IN
gradients used I'm the manufacture Of fine
paper, such is used for checks bonds
ard certificates OF stock. The moist sheets
Immediately after leaving the rollers for the
first time. are placed In a bath OF concen-
trated sulphuric acid to which distilled wa
ter has been added. After having been
pressed between glass rollers the sheets are
successfully bathed in pure water, a solu-
ton Of ammonia, and finally In water again
The process Is completed by hard pressing,
passing through felt rollers and drying be-
tween polished and heated metal cyllnders.
The popularity OF this innocent-loolling pa
per is that writing, no matter how acidifer-
Gus the ink, can be readily washed OF with
water after any length OF time. Such ma
terial would be dangerous In the hands OF
forgers. Although prohibited by the Ger
man government quantities OF this paper
will no doubt be manufactured for nefari-
Gus purposes.

vealed to her through a Kiss, and IN
knowing. when to give and when to
withhold this favor often lies the Sc
cret of winning or losing.
AS many prizes have been lost by the
kiss too long withheld as by the one
too easily given. To the woman the
kiss means more, and less than it
means to the man. The woman thinks
the man who takes her lips has given
his heart: but the man thinks only that
she who has given her lips will give
herself as well. When the woman finds
her mistake she is disillusionized.
When the man finds his he is angry.
When the thrill of pleasure goes out Of
the kiss for two people, and it becomes
a mechanical duty, love has departed.
Friendship may bind them, respect
may unite them, and sympathy render
their association sweet and tender; but
when lip no longer speaks to lip, in

mother will urge and even command.
8, A dainty little girl will be absolutely
forced to offer her sweet mouth to

home necessary part Of the child's
education.
Every man or woman OF feeling
longs to caress beautiful child, as
one longs to put fragrant rose to the
nostrils, but tender gardener does not
allow every passerby to freely handle
his flowers.
The kiss upon the lips was undoubt-
edly first invented by lovers. and
should be consecrated to loves uses. It
can never be abolished by fashion or
science, while hearts beat, veins tingle
and pulses throb with loves fires.
It is spontaneous impulse of two
fond beings drawn together by mys-
terious attraction. Eloquent in its
silence it succeeds where words fail.

Infinitely better, but the old time spell
which hung about the "Sandman's
hour" is lost forever.
Progress and science now propose to
abolish the kiss. Will they succeed?
Without doubt there is too much kiss
ing done in the world by the wrong
people. There is vast deal of mis-
mating of lips about US. Women caress
each other too promiscuously and mean
inglessly. Children are kissed too
freely by relatives, friends and
strangers. 1 saw a pretty young lady
taking leave of her summer friends
last season, and fully twenty women
and children presented lips to her.
while the carriage waited to bear her
away. There is no expression in kiss
of that kind. 1t means nothing but a
mere form, on the part of the friends,
while it means trying ordeal for the
poor victim. It is like tossing deli

The march of civilization destroys
many things and changes many long
established customs. The cradle has
been trodden under the ruthless foot
of progress for one thing. The hand
that rocks the cradle is no longer the
hand that moves the world. The wise
mother of the present day puts her
baby to bed, and allows it to crow it
self to sleep. She misses sweet ro-
mantle experience. but she saves her
self no end of trouble and irritation,
and she brings upself-reliant children,
who have no fear of the dark, and who
do not tyrannize over her if she
chances to desire IAN evening off,"
Still, nothing is ever gained without
something lost. The mystic hour
when the baby was rocked to sleep in
it's cradle, and the mother was obliged
to tiptoe out of the room. possessed its
charm which nothing can replace.
