they have no one to love them. There
is forethought in this item from the
Endeavor World
Two young girls had gone to the
orphan asylum one Sabbath afternoon
to teach in the Sabbath school there
as substitutes for regular teachers
who were absent. One of them
taught the infant class, and when the
lessons were over, a little blue-eyed
tot caught hold of the girls dress,
and, looking up, whispered pleadingly:
please, teacher, won't you kiss me?"
ITO be sure will, you dear baby!"
the girl cried, and, dropping down on
one of the low benches she drew the
child close and kissed her again and
again. In an instant the others
swarmed about, boys and girls alike
holding up hungry faces for kisses.
The girls eyes filed with quick tears
as she looked into the eager little
faces.

Who could have surmised it? With
beauty galore
And rosy-lipped cheeks so seductive to
man,
Here's a nation of girls that calls kissing
bore,
In the perfume kissed land of the sun
rise-Japan.
Where Hebes and Clytias and Psyches
abound,
With charms that no other known race
can eclipse,
The girl you can kiss is nowhere to be
found,
And to. pitiful waste go their cherry
hued lips.
Perhaps they can hirt with a fan, and
can wink,
sAnd with gesture and smile hint of con-
summate bliss;
Yet in spite of all this one is driven to
think
They lose a rare climax in banning the
kiss.
No doubt there is love where the lips do
not meet,
And devotion without any eolacing
