A KISS SY MOONLIGHT.
From time immemorial no one will pretend to
deny the fcet that kisses have bern held in high
repute by both sexes—whether active or passive.
It has b'-en decided that a I.BOAI, KI-SJ implies
ACTION on both parties; but a lady simply oon
seuts to be kissed without action of her lipe, It
constitutes only a FASSINE kiss—a sweet de-
prived of its nectar
Snugly encsonsed wltbin • moss-embowered
and vine-clad verandah, and almost hid irom
view amid sweet-scented honeysuckles, was
seated a fair Atlanta nytuoh, whose beautiful
dark eyes, alabaster complexion and volnptous
contour seemed to DAZE the young gent by her
side, who ever and anon whfle circumnaviga-
ting her slemler waist, gaue her a BUSS and
then a HE-BUSS to the amazement ot a pedes-
trian, wlut happened to be passing that beautiful
moonlight night. At that moment the lover was
heard to ask, "My dear darling Sarah Jane,
yon are becoming more beautiful every day)
your eyes sparkle with more brilliancy, your
once pale cheeks have L «en painted bv the rose-
ate hues of nature, and you seem to have entire-
ly regained your health. Will yeu tell me the
cause ol the change V"
