And though 1t was the best one out,
She paused moment half In doubt,
Then trumped 1t.
"Oh! partner that was the command"
She said, when she had played the hand:
Then wrinkling up her pretty brow,
"You will forgive me, won't you, now,
For trumping?"
Another night, remembered well,
We sat where mooncast shadows fell.
No polished marble lay between.
The tree boughs made a waving screen
Above her.
We talked of other things than whist;

With all a lovers gentle art.
And once again led my heart,

When round to her the trick had passed
She thought it not the best one out,

No eyes with lashes dropping wet,

Among this only half awake people the
giving of kiss is as often an act Of re-
ligious devotion as an expression of
affection or esteem. To kiss the hand
may mean worship or simply an evidence
of respect. The manner in which their
governmental officials receive a public
document. custom still in vogue, was
and Is most impressive. The paper,
parchment or book, constituting the pub
lie document. Is first solemnly kissed
and then reverently pressed against the
forehead. This ie a mute but eloquent
declaration that the official paper will
be carefully considered and faithfully
expounded, its contents announced by
the lips after intelligent action by the
brain.
Making kiss a mask for deceit is
very old sin. We read of Joab kissing
Amasa before he stabbed him to death,
the salutation having been clearly in
tended to throw the unfortunate man
off his guard. And SO the handsome but
ungrateful and rebelliouS Absalom "stole
the hearts of the men of Israel" with
kiss, winning them over to strengthen
his sedition against 1.iis royal father.
From the Infamous treachery of Judas
to the latest act of modern seduction,
men and women have been betrayed with
a kiss. I might multiply instances from

prostitution of the giving of kisses to
unholy purposes, and like the shining
shield lifted upon Mount Pentelicus, just
after the battle of Marathon, to invite
the Persians to attack Athens, making
a kiss even between lovers, or between
kindred and household friends a cover
for the most deadly treason. The still
small voice that the prophet Elijah
heard speaking to him from the cave of
Horeb in denunciation of the worship
Of Baal, refers to the kissing Of the idol
as part of that absurd worship. Many
worshiped Baal for the gifts of good
luck or prosperity, of long life and hap
piness, that they vainly believed would
be the reward Of such worship. Thus
in ancient as modern times poor human
nature bows the knee to the Baal" and
kisses his image still ever dreaming
that good luck and good fortune will
follow in the footprints Of deceit and
treachery. needless Of the immortal
truth couched in the lines: BE not de-
ceived; God is not mocked; whatsoever
a man soweth that shall he also reap"
