About Kissing

The Rev. Sydney Smith once suid, in writing of kissing : " We are in fuvor of a certain degree of shyness when a kiss is proposed, but it should not be continued oo long ; and when the fair one gives it, et it be administored with warmth and nergy. Let there be soul in it. If she loses her eyes and sighs deeply inimeditely after it, the effect is greater. She bculd be careful not to slobber a kiss, ut give it as a hutmning bird runs hia 3Ü1 into a honey suckle - deep but deliate. There is much virtue in a kiss when well delivered. We have had the memoy of one received in our youth, which las lasted us torty years, and we believn ; will be one of the last things we will bink of when we die." A Stock-keeper sayshe has never faild to relieve a ctioked animal by raisiug ts head as if tor drenchmg and throwng down its throat a broken hen's egg, lell and all.
