The Ancient Use Of Kiss.

A Roman woman in the ancient time
was not allowed to drink wine except
It were simple raisin wine, and how
ever she might relish strong drinks
she could not indulge even by stealth
first, because she was never intruSt-
ed with the key Of the wine cellar
and, second, because she was obliged
daily to greet with a kiss all her own
as well as her husbands male repre-
sentatives, down even to second cous-
ms, and as she knew not when or
where she might meet them she was
forced to be wary and abstain alto
gether, for had she tasted but a drop
the smell would have betrayed her
So strict were the old Romans in this
respect that a certain Ignatius Mer
GURUS is said to have slain his wife
because he caught her at the wine
cask-a punishment which was not
deemed excessive by ROmuluS, who alb
solved the husband of the crime of
murder. Another Roman lady who I'M
der the pretense Of taking a little wine
for her stOmach's sake and frequent
infrmities INDUCED somewhat too free
ly was mulcted to the full amount of
her dowry.
