Lindsey has never been frightened when he be-

My Son. hast thou considered the
High Cost OF kissing?
Nay. verify!
For, what Youth doth not look
upon a damsers kisses as gifts Of
charity. and loves little graft?
And what Youth. when he seeketh
/ to kiss a woman, taketh account Of
the price that he shall pay?
Yet. behold, there is the kiss that
/ leadeth into ma,rimOny, and for
which a man payeth in cash and in
service and in irstallments of duty
and devotion, all his life.
And there is the kiss that leadeth
u divorce, and for which ne payeth
in regret and in aHmony all the
rest of his days.
And there is the kiss that leadeth
10 the breach-Of-prOmise suit, and
for which he paytth in lawyers fees
ard brides and humiliation.
And there is the kiss that leadeth
70 Irritation. and Cor which he pay
eth in remorse, ard ennui and heart
fag.
And there is the kiss OF the gold
digger for which he payeth in
orchids and dinners and tad-fares.
long after he hath wearied Of her
kisses.
Yet. the Foolish Bachelor hath
said in his heart:
GO TO. go to! A kiss for kiss,
and a sigh for a sight
For kiss is its own reward.
10. 20 one man. a damsers kiss
may be worth a lifetime OF punish
ment. Yet. 20 another man, it is
worth but the price OF a pair OF

'To one man. q woman's kiss may
be worth the price OF a solitaire and
n wedding-ring. And 10 another. II
may be worth no more than an even
iag's dalliance.
Who then. shall standardize a kiss.
and set price upon It?
For kisses are as melons. which /
