There is many a thing we uiat; we .can’t explain still vro arc sure it is h fact for nil that. Why. should there be a sbrt of magic in shakhig lianda, which seems only n more form, and smnctlmtft a painful one too, fol* some folks wring your lingers almost oil and make you fairly dance with pain, they hurt you so., It don’t give much pleasure at any time. What the magic if it Is. we can't tell, but so it is for all that. It seems only a' custom, like showing and-nothing else, still there is more ip it than meets the eye. But a kiss fairly electrifies you. ILwarms yonr blood j and sets your-hcart a boatin' like a base drum, j and makes.your eyes.twinkle like stars in a 1 frosty night. It loin’t a thing ever to be for- I .V 0 language can express it, no letters , will give the sound. Then what in nature is j equal to the flavor of it 1 What an aroma it | has 1 How spiritual it is. It ain’t gross, for you can’t feed on it, don’t cloy, for the palate am t required to test its laslo. It is neither ( visible, nor tangible, nor portable, nor trasfer | able. It is not a substance, nor a liquid, nor a | vapor. It has neither color nor form. Tmagi | nation can’t conceive It. It can’t bo imitated tor forged.

Eve learn* cd it in Paradise and was taught iis beauties, virtues and varieties by an angel, there is some thing so transcendent in it. How it Is adapted to all circumstances?— There is the kiss of welcome and of parting the long, lingering loving, present—the stolen or the mutual one, the kiss of joy. and of sorrow, the seal of promise, and the receipt of fulfill ment. Ts it Htrangc’thereforo that a woman is invincible whose armory consists of kisses, smiles, sighs, and tears ? Ts it any wonder that poor old Adam was first tempted and then ruined ? It is very easy for preachers to gel upjwith long faces, and tell us he ought lohavc been more of a man. My opinion is. if lie had been less of a man, it would have -been bettor for him. * * • * * But, Squire, I shall always maintain Jo my dying day, that kissing is a sublime mystery.
