The kiss was unknown among the aboriginal tribe* of America and of Central Africa. From the moat an cient timea, however, it had • been fa miliar to the Asiatic and European races. The Latina divided it into three 'orms —the oaculum, and the ruaviolum—the first bktogthe kiu of friendship and respectjthe sebv ond of ceremony and the ttjjrjl of love The Semites always employed the kiss and Job spoaks of it as part of their sacred rites, as it is today in the Ro man Catholic church. The Mongolian kiss is not the same as that which prevails with us. In it the lips do not come into actual con tact with those of the person kissed. The nose is brought into light contact with the cheek, forehead or hand ; the breath is drawn slowly through the nostrils, and the act ends with a slight ■mack of the lips. The Chinese con sider our mode of kissing most detest able. We on our part regard their method with equal disdain. Darwin and other naturalists have attempted to trace back the kiss to the act of the lower animals who seize their pray with their teeth The aver age man doos not take a great deal of interest in the ethnology of the subject, however. —London Mail.
