When white is added 10 the blue the
colors Of Columbia and six other instl.

WHAT KISSING is.

Mr.. Editor, do you know what kiss.
ing is? Kissing is noun, its name;
proper noun, because its the proper
thing to do when they are ready and
the heart is willing; plural number,
because it takes Two to perform it;
common gender, because its generally
performed by one of each sex; possess
sive case, because IL possesses a de.
lirious infatuation for the human
race and agrees with the parties per.
forming the act. Kissing is closely
connected with "bus," which Is a
good old backwoods expression, mean.
inp a kiss that is highly enjoyed by
two greenhorns who have powerful
The Pascagoula democrat-star., 1901-10-11

lungs to perform the act with. In
this case buss means one kiss, rebus
means kiss again, puribus means
number Of kisses, hornibus means to
be caught kissing by the old folks,
merribus means to steal kiss, syli.
bus means to kiss the hands instead
Of the lips, blunderbus means to kiss
an old maid by mistake, and omnibus
means kiss all present including your
mother.in-law.
Kissing is glorious performance
when properly carried out, but moth
ing is more trying than to kiss
pretty girl and miss the mark.
