T is hard for the young girl or boy to be
made to believe that subtle danger may
| lie like the asp coiled in the enfolding
leaves of rose in that sweetest, most en-
dearing Of all caresses-the kiss.
Cold scientists warn them that the custom
of kissing is dangerous from the standpoint
of health /; that fever germs tubercular germs,
and other cruel maladies are often transmitted
by the supposedly inoffensive kiss, and that
only very strong and able constitution can
repel such diseases.
But little attention is apt to be paid such
an edict by those who have not yet outlived
the youthful fires of romance, especially
where they are permitted the freedom that
the average American girls and boys know.
In foreign countries where young people are
permitted less freedom warning against pro-
miscuous kissing is unnecessary.
But the mother of every American girl if
she has that girls interests at heart should
instill into her from the moment she arrives
at an age of understanding that the kiss is a
solemn, tender, holy thing, but that when
misplaced it becomes a dangerous thing.
\ kiss is meant to express the rich, full
treasure of the heart-loye. And no man
should dare to ask this token of regard from
girl unless he loves her and wishes to make
her his wife.
Heed paid to a parents wise injunction in
the matter of promiscuous kissing would save
many young girl from unhappiness and
misery.
There have been treacherous kisses since
the time of Judas. Socrates pronounced
kisses so powerful and dangerous for steal
ing hearts"
The girl who allows herself to be treated
with familiarity by soon finds herself
without single man friend. However, it is
little to mans credit that he adopt this low
principled. selfish way of winning a girls
affections.
But If girls could be made to realize
fully that the penalty they must pay for
promiscuous kissing is loss of their own self
respect and loss of the respect and friend
ship of the man they hope to win there would
