Osoulatloni Kissing, ns our readers nro awatol L uiulor cortaln oireunistrmccs, Ibr wiiumuers ,ournai, a poriootly nntur nl proceeding, nnd 0110 which, within certain limitations, constitutes a high ly ploasing experionoo. It Is a pro. ocodlng, morover, wlilch may bo saltl to havo received tliosanclion of nnlvor nal custom from tho Immemorial and - all tho world over j aud thero are not at present nny indications of Its be coming in futuro less popular than it has been In tho past. A kiss is not a thing that you can successfully describo A poctio lover who undertook tho de scription would probably novor get be yond somo stupidly inflated general ties. Josh Billings truthfully obsorves that tho moro a man tries to analyzo a kiss tho moro ho can't, and he boliovcs that tho only real way to defino a kiss is to tako ono. Kisses, of course, vaiy con. sldcrably. Thero aro tho formal kiss of greeting -, tho fraternal kiss of affection ; tho kiss of policy, which it is not always tusy to givo with good graco j tho kiss under tho mlstclotoc, which Is not only obtained after (of courso) a tremendous amount of strug gling and merriment j tho lover's kiss which breathes of rapurc, and tho staid, dutiful salutation of conjugal at tachment. Such a classification as this only suggests an indefinito variety, of experience. A curious case of osculation is re ported from across the Atlantic. Somo time ago a Mr. Finch, who was in tho jowelry business in Newborn, United States, sold to a young lady named ' Miss Waters what was described as a beautiful set of real jet, tho bargain being that ho was to receive in pay ,mcnt thereof ono hundred kisses, to bo paid at tho iato of ono kiss daily. Mr. Finch was to call at the young lady's honso every morning, Sundays except ed, to receivo hij daily kiss, which Miss Waters undertook" and promised to duly deliver to him. For thiry con secutive days Sundays excepted Mr. Finch punctually called upon Miss Waters and duely received tho stipu lated salutation. On the thirty-first day, however, Mr. Finch made a for mal complaint that Miss Waters was not fulfilling her contract, inasmuch as sho insisted upon permitting him to kiss her cheek only. Ho maintained that this did not constitute) a legal kiss and demanded that ho should bo allow ed to put his arm around her waist nnd kiss her in tho highest stylo of tho art. To this, however, a firm refusal was returned. Tho lady offered Mr. Finch a choico of cheeks, but insisted that tho contract would not bear tho con struction ho put upon it. Thereupon ivr :., .. :.i: i...li.. an action for breach of contract against tho lady. This action raised sovcral now and interesting questions, among tho most important of which was, what consti tuted, in the oyo of tho law, a kiss 1 Tho plaintiff set up tho further plea that thero was a difference between active and passive kisses j that Miss Waters had promised to givo him a certain number of kisses not merely to allow him to tako them and that giving them was an act which required ,Uio uso of tho lips. Tho caso was the subject of considerable controversy in tho press and elsowhere ; but tho wri ter, unfortunately, has never been able to discover the result of tho legal pro ceedings which were instituted, and has concluded that a compromise of some Bort must, as was at ono timo ox pected, havo been brought about. An equally remarkably kissing traction occurred not long ago in Aus tria. In this instanco a kiss was ac tually put up for sale by auction and publicly bestowed upon tho highest bidder. Tho occasion was a eharity fcto got up in tho little town of Torau al on behalf of tho poor at Agrara. Tho well meant endeavors of tho benevo lent ladies and gentlemen who acted as salesmen and stallholders to induco visitors to purchase trifles exposed for ealo at twenty times their value had not succeed. Business was not brisk. Tho public who filled tho sallo wero not in a generous mood, and tho orga nizer of tho fetoworo disheartened. At this juncture one of tho lady pat ronesses, a remarkably beautiful wo man, had what sho thought a happy inspiration. Sho took her husband aside, conferred with iura a fow minutes, and shortly after, with his consent, offored a kiss to tho highest bidder, the sura paid for tho favor to bo added to tho receipts of tho fete. Tho result of this novel idea hardly came up to what was anticipated. Very low bidswero at first offered by tho young men for, of course, tho feminine por tion of tho visitors wero not tempted by tho opportunity and ultimately tho kiss was knocked down at tho relative paltry figuro of fifteen florins and eloven kreuzers. Tho husband of the lady, seeing tho slight storo set by tho ravor, offerod to pay tho amount himself and tako tho kiss, but tho claimant had al ready handod over thn mouoy, and as he rofuscd to agroo to the bargain bo. ing canceled, tho kiss was exchanged boforo tho assembled company. A young lady reading in a news paper the other day of a girl having been mado crazy by a sudden kiss, called tho attontion of her undo, who was in tho room, to that rather singu lar occurrence, whereupon tho old gen tleman grullly demanded what tho fool had gono crazy for. "What did sho go orazy for T" archly returned tho in genious maiden j "why, for more, I sup pose !'' ; FniAn's Omelet. Feel and slico ten largo apples ; stow them to a pulp, with two ounces of butter, and sugar to taste, when tho applo sauco is cool, beat ono egg for ono minute nnd stir it into tho jinnlo ; spread cold butter rather thickly on a plain tin mould which will hold about threo pints, and put a half-inch Jayer of fresh bread crumbs all over tho inner surface of tho mould, pressing them to mako them adhoro to it ; when tho mould is cov ered with bread crumbs, pour in tho applo sauce, putting a thick layer of bread crumbs on top of the applo 5 set tho mould in a moderato oven and bake tho omelet until tho bread crumbs nro brown and oleavo away from tho sido of tho mould. To turn out tho omolet without breaking it, place a platter just tho size of tho mould on it nnd turn both platter and mould over it with a steady hand 1 tho mould oan then bo liftod off, leaving tho omelet unbroken on tho platter. Dust it thick ly with powdered sugar nnd servo it hot. Fnurr Stains on Fikouks.

Good Cooking. f&WjSmako an oxtrnot from tho Intro uuctorr chanter of tho "Cottacto Kitoti en," by Marion Ilarland, just published uy uuarles ocrlbilor s sons s I have been a Biiminer boarder in farm houses whoro thoy "calculated to raiso nearly cvorytliiiu? for tho lablei" havo been permitted to sit in tho neat Kiioiion ot tho mechanics wite, ami chat with her while sho mado ready "his" dinncrj havo cono on errands of t 1 . 1 1.1 uusiuush nnu mercy into inr nummcr abodes, yet where provisions wero sin ficient as to quantity, if common as to quality. Notinc Bilcntly tho process cs of preparing food in all of these, I havo made up my mind that tho unsat isfactory results aro attributable mainly 10 two lauils on tho part 01 tho house wife. First ! an ignorant indifferontlsm on tho subject of dainty cookery as a rulo. Ilor family faro ns well as their neigh bors.

UHUU IUU11I9 a day, threo hundred and. sixty-five (lays in tno year. The business is tire some, becauso trito and uninteresting, Sho croans over baking, boillntr nnd frying, almost as dolorously as over tho cleansing ot pots, pans and kettles. It is a flow that goes on forever without tho sudden sally, tho sparkle and tho dally of tho brook, Sho never asks herself whether her husband may not weary ot driving nails or laying brick, of ploughing, sowing, nnd reaping. That is his life-labor. Sho would do spiso him if he were as apathetic in performance, loathed it as drearily as she does kitchen-work. If she is nm bitious, sho is apt to wish aloud that sho had a trado or profession. Her web of life is a hit-or miss carpet, and the knots havo a way of coming out on tho right, which is tho wrong Bide. Sho is always discouraged, chronically fa tigued, and given to declarations that a tread-mill is a bower of pleasure com pared with tho existenco of tho woman who docs her own work. Sho would hardly discern exaggeration, and cer tainly sco no burlcsquo in tho humor ously pathetio last words of tho old woman who was "Going Where washing ain't done, nor churn ing, nor sewing, And everything elso will bo just to my wishes , For whero thoy don't eat there's no washing ot dishes. Dcn't mourn for mo now, nor mourn for mo nover, For I'm going to do nothing for over and ever." Far bo it from mo to deny that there aro many and sharp crooks in the lot of our tired wife. Said a patient voice to tho pastor who spoke of tho praises of heaven, tho advanco from glory to glory "Some tituo perhaps I'll under stand it all. Just now I'd like to pray to God to let mo lio still in my grave for a couple of hundred years or so. Just to get rested out, you know 1'' TI10 fardel of human existence and toil is bound moro tightly upon somo shoulders than upon othors. Yet tho question to bo pressed home to our housewifo's consciousness and con- science is, whether sho appreciates tho truth that Home is her sphero since tho Master has put her thero and hedged her in by loves and duties, and house keeping her trade, her profession, her mission. Fault tho second, I writo down as mismanagement of time and forces Tho preparation of each meal is post poned until thero is just timo to get it ready between tho commencement ot tho business and tho hour of serving. Instead of forecasting breakfast in all its details, and so far as possible laying materials ready to her hand, timo and nervous power aro wasted when both aro scant, in thinking, "What can wo haret" and in collecting gredients. Tho toilet is hurried that tho work may be seized by tho first handle that offers itself. Kindlings were not prepared, nor oatmeal put in soak at bedtime. Tho beef and potntoes that could have been wrought into croquettes, which would havo been firm and fit for fry ing by morning, remain as they were left at dinner time tho ono a shape less chunk, tho other a pile of slaty bluo bullets. Clearly tho only resort is that bane of tho " national kitchen, tho frying-pan. Tho worried woman would cook coffee and biscuit in it, if sho dared. "Thoro is wit goes to tlie boiling of eggs," says tho ancient ad age Calm judgment and foresight; a wiso weighing ot resources and capa bilities nro as much needed in kind, if not in degree, in tho management of a kjtchen as of an empire. Sho who feeds judiciously tho bodies of that portion of tho present generation given into her charge sets her mark upon her ago and the next as truly as does ho who w.rites an opio that is worthy to live, or she who delights tho world with a "Middlemarch." What our cottage housekeepor needs most is tho just conception in cookery as in graver coucerns of tho impor tance of common things. Sho is apt to slur over such weighty matters of tljo law of dietetics and health as bread making and potato-boiling, and rush with mistaken ambition after "fancy dishes." Hero is a zeal without knowl edge as truly as that of tho art-student who dives at onco into color without tho preliminary drill of charcoal and cubes. When tho principlo is reduced to practice tho term, "good plain cook" will bo a title of honor, instead of dis paragement. As tho lack of timo for tho day's work, the overlapping and tho "teles coping" dutios that wring from tho scared woman cries of horror and an guish, as sho surveys tho wrecked train of hours may I append to this iutro. ductory chapter a bit of sound, every day wisdom I havo quoted elsowhere and moro than once, with tonguo and pen !
