pretty suburbs around the main citadel,
which IS the kiss of love.
There are 1nfidelS and scoffers I'm the
court of kissing: Pooh and Pah, Bosh and
Oof. are stubborn Voltaires. Tom Paines
and Ingersols who have their following
there are Puritans who regard oscula-
ton as a form of sin, and prudes who
look upon it, or at least look upon men,
tioning 1t, as somewhat indecent; but the
great commonalty of the human family
consider kissing to be one Of the most in
teresting exercises, as fascinating as it
is dangerous; one of those little acts that
hang like a scarlet flower right on the
edge Of the cliff between the Elysian
fields and the bottomless pit; every body
likes kissing, except the usual protest
ing minority, and even they like to talk
about it.
Then there is the kiss of desperation,
of which that of Hartley Colefidge is a
classical type. Tennyson tells us that
Coleridge had accepted an invitation to
dinner at the house OF dull and stiff
Presbyterian minister.
There was a long waiting for dinner
in the drawing room. Nobody talked.
At last Hartley could stand it no longer.
He jumped up from the sofa, kissed the
clergyman'S daughter, and bolted out of
the house"
