II is probably the Philadelphia air that is
TO blame for the professors slight lapse
from absolute accuracy, for, az Is we'll
known in that City of Brotherly Love and
Quaker habits. there is no sniff kiss a. we
know II in New York.
They are conservative folk over there
and prepare for the sacred duty OF kissing
as did their fathers. The party Of the first
part arranges his collar and tie as well as
his cuffs and pulls down his coat In the
tame way that generations before him
have done. He advances placidly to the
rencontre and mingles a proper amount OF
respect, a little sentiment and sell CON
sc%lousness to taste. When he considers
that a sufficient amount Of time has been
spent on the process, he glances at the clock
to see that he will not be late at the Office
and slowly but firmly withdraws. The party
Of the second part; who has awaited his
action plaoidly seated, showing neither an
undue amount Of eagerness nor an impolite
lack Of interest, is apparently not perturbed
In the least. This marital kiss. with a
slight admixture. Of timidity. does for the
betrothal, and with a considerable amount
Of sternness for the parental, and Is as fair a
sample Of the average Philadelphia kiss
as can be given at one sitting.
Nor has the "sniff kiss been admitted TO
the meetings OF the fair sex. to whom the
kissing habit comes with ingrained ease
and never has a chance to grow rusty
through misuse. Let two women meet in
Philadelphia on a shopping tour. there is
no mad dash toward each other. no drop
ping OF parcels, no e~cstatio scream OF
delight. Clasping four hands or with

She quotes Prof. W. D, Muller Of the
University OF Berlin, who Is declared TO
have said that the kiss Of d beautiful woman
may bring a quicker and more horrible
death than the bite OF a serpent. al.
IL is for this reason that she neve goes
out without being prepared for the worst
that may happen, and she adds TO the
suggestion Of Prof. Miller's warning, which
has caused her adoption OF the principle
that an ounce OF cure is better in this mat
ter than d pound Of prevention, other and
more startling statements that abe re-
cites, II you happen to be a man, in a way
that acts as a dare to a troubled and timid
spirit.
The Chioagoans scorn the sniff kiss.
The Chicago woman with a lakellke breezi-
ness allows that rapidly as they live out
there they have time for the important
things Of life and that q man who would
dare put a woman of with a sniff kiss in the
Windy City would get what was coming to
him. This fact Is attested in oTuder form
by the cities further West. Kansas City
has an alkali kiss which lie nothing at all
like the sniff. Sioux City one that has been
named "The Great Divide" and San Fran
cisco the earthquake. which. those attest
who have tried them, are merely repetitions
Of the good old fashioned varieties with
modern trimmings and not in any degree
resembling the sniff.
So after careful investigation one is
forced 10 the original belief that the sniff
kiss is essentially a New York r~eproduo-
ton and that in it's most accomplished
forms 1t may be seen in the corridors Of the
Waldorf-Astoria, ST. Regis, Aston and other
s O'Clock tea resorts. in the fashionable
stores, In any OF the smart obile
inns in the suburbs.
The 'sniR kiss which has b ecome an
established fashion now, owes its origin
to the rapid life we lead, the fact Of having
music at meals. airships and other twentieth
century evidences Of progress. We haven't
time to spend upon the old fashioned en-
brace. and besides II would muss our

Terhune brushed the crumbs from the
step. He looked about in a bewildered
way like one reused from dreams that

homing instincts when in distress. he crept
back to the front pew. leaning against the
abutting pillar. The tranquil influences
of the place hovcred over him. They
soothed his mind. They closed his lids.
They luIled him to sleep.
The swinging doors from the vestibule
opened and Blanche Graveline, with her
father and brother, entered the chapel.
She hurried down the side aisle. She
picked up the object that had excited her
apprehensions and brought it TO them.

This sudden inquiry wa caused by the
noiseless approach Of a comedy young

by her side. In the white face looking
down, in the bright face looking up, there
was the common expression OF mother

could see women in coarse black habits
cleaning the marble pavement on hands and

souringly over his shaven face; and on

Hancock County Went Copper Crazy IN ~
Two Stock Exchanges.

BANGOR. May 1.-The recent purchase Of
two long abandoned copper mines In the
town OF Brooksville by a Portland firm,
which intends pumping the shafts free Of
water with the view of resuming operations
on the properties, calls up memories az
Maines bonanza days. thirty years ago,
when all Hancock county was thought to
be one great lump Of copper ore, strealed
with gold, and every owner OF a rocky pas
ture lot hoped to become a millionaire.
The mining craze of II sent mining specu-
lators down TO Maine in droves.
Bluehill, Sullivan. and indeed it was but
a very short time the whole county, wsa
dug full Of holes and dotted with shaft
houses.
In thisc city at the time Of the excitement
many absurd things were lone and said,
and to the more sensible class Of people
the great furore furnished a dealtof amuse-
ment. Farmers whose hay was ready to be
harry ested and whose potatoes were left
unhoed filed the air full of smoke with the
blasting OF lodges on their land and then
fastened 10 this city with a carpetbag fun
Of any stone which looked peculiar to them
in order TO have IL assayed.
In Bangor there were signs on nearly
every corner setting forth the names Of
the great companies which were organized
20 make a man rich in Il day. One read
like this: Rising Sun Silver and Gold Min
ing Company, capital 81 OO,000.' Another
read: Andes Gold Mining and Milling
Company, capital S500,OO while there
were assayers' Offices a-plenty and two
mining exchanges. There was a stock
auction every afternoon. and 10 go on the
floor OF the big room made the enthusi-
astio investors think that they were in
Wall Street for a few minutes. Scores OF
people attended these auctions and bought
more or less Of the stock, which was printed
in gorgeous style.
The prices varied for these pieces Of
p that made people wealthy. You
could buy shares for eight cents each up
TO $3.50, and many purchased the cheap
stocks simply because it didn't cost a great
deal and they felt that some morning they
might wake and find that their fortunes
had been made.
But the collapse came early. There were
unexpected engineering problems, whose
solution was expensive, 50 that stock as
easements became numerous. Many OF the
stockholders either could not or would not
stand the assessments, and then followed
delinquency sales and no end OF a row.
The head stock m~anipulators quietly slipped
from under the crash, which fell on
the innocent investors. One day there
was a run on the bank so 10 speak, the
~kcle thing vas wound up, and TODAY
the buildings which were used as mining
exchanges are occupied as a saloon and a
shop respectively.

considered bad form when worn in public.
and the tearing and mussing and soillng Of
perishable ohiffons continued.
After the ceremony is over and life has
settled down into routine, and a husband has
an OCCASIONAL desire TO kiss his wife in some
more pronounced form than the sniff kiss OF
his oourtship. it is a very easy matter, says
the club Of feminine bachelors. for her to slip
away, put on a matinee OF some charming
material hat will iron easily. and thus save
her best gowns. II ia said too, that when
men get to the point of paying for the chif-
fons and laces themselves they become quite
s~elf-restrained in the matter OF untimely
caresses.

Scientists Debt TO the Frog.

Prof. X. ], Holmes OF the governmental
research laboratories AT Washington opints
that most Of what IL known in certain depart.

no animal except man has been the subject
Of 80 many scientific Investigations. Ohs

is being seriously discussed by a bachelor
maiden club Of one Of the New Jersey
suburbs. the nearness TO the city acting as
an influence In its debates. Certain MEM
bers who nave been engaged several times
have exhibited lace blouses and embroid-
cred stocks that have been absolutely
ruined by the crudeness OF the old fashioned
embrace that the uneducated male still
clings to.
A oourt decision recently took into con-
sideration the fact OF this s~artorial loss in q
breach OF promise suit, and this, with other
bearings on the matter. seems to point to the
sniff kiss as the only possible solution. Its
all very well for the man" says the club in
question, who is protected by stiff linen and
