A Kiss Defined.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger
 Someone has taken pains to think oi,1 the following cpnr site descriptions of os- culatton:
 A Kiss is an insipid and tasteless nor sell which becomes delicious and delecta- ble in proportion as 1t is favored with love.
 The sweetest fruit on the tree of love. The oftener pucked the more abundant 1t grows.
 A thing of use to no one. but much prized by two.
 The babys right the lover's privilege. the parents benlson and the hypocrite's mask.
 The food by which the flame of love is fed
 The only known Smack" that will calm a storm.
 A telegram to the heart, in which the operator uses the sounding" system.
 Nothing divided between two.
 Not enough for one, just enough for two. too much for three.
 The only really agreeable two-faced action under the sun. or the moon either. The sweetest label of the worlds ian- guage.
 A woman's most effective argument. whether to cajole the heart of father, controls the humors of husband or con sols the griefs of childhood.
 The thunderclap of the lips which in- evitably follows the lightning glance of the eyes.
 A report at headquarters
 Everybody's acting edition of Romeo and Juliet"
 What the child receives free. what the young man steals and what the old man buys.
 The drop that runneth over when the cup of love Is full
