She Meant the Other Mr. Jones.
He had never seen a telephone, find
his friend was showing him how it
worked. It was in his offiee. He
called up his house and his wife came
to the telephone.
“My dear, Mr. Jones is here, and I
have asked him to come up to din-
Then he turned to Mr. Jones and
said:
‘Put your ear to that and you’ll
hear her answer.”
He did, and this was the answer.
“Now, John, I told you I would
never have that disagreeable wretch
in my house again.”
“ What was that ?” spoke out Mr.
Jobes. Women are quick. A man
would have simply backed away from
the telephone and said no more.
She took in the situation in a second
when she heard the strange voice,
ond quick os a flash came back the
sweetest kind of a voice:
"Why, Mr. Joner>, how do yoti do?
I thought my husband meant anoth¬

Tow Kinds of Kisses.
St, Louis Republic.
“Did you ever notice, my dear boy,
what a very radical difference there
is in women in the matter of kiss¬
ing?” said De Lancey Smith to The
Man About Town the other evening.
The latter admitted that though he
had given the subject more or less
earnest attention, he was not pre¬
pared to handle* it from a philoso¬
phical standpoint. “Well, I suppose
not,’ said De Lancey, “and yet, any
young man of enterprise with aspecu-
lative turn of mind ouglit to have
noted the fact I speak of, and learned
to take avantage of it. The subject
was brought to mind by a recent ex.
perience with a young lady—er—a
relative, of course. She -is one of
these petite girls, don’t you know,
that are so enticing, with a small,
warm mouth, and full, red lips. And
when she kisses a man she wears the
shyest most reluctant air in the world
until jusMBt the supreme moment
when she seems to lose control of
herself, and with a little bit of' a
sigli and a flutter of the eyelids, she
kisses a fellow squarely on the—er—
right place, and then somehow makes
her escape. “Now,” said DeLaneey,
waxing slightly enthusiastic, “there
is a kiss that tingles through every
nerve in the body like an electric
shock and a fellow wouldn’t part with
the memory of it for a fortune. But
there is another sort of girl who is dif¬
ferent, She may be as pretty as you
like, but her kisses are stale, fiat and
unprofitable. Her lips are thin and
cool, and they touch yours with a
cool, unemotional pressure that is
positively ghastly and leaves a man
feeling as though he had had a bad
dream. One such kiss will do moreto
destory a man’s illusion^ than to
be twice jilted. Then there is
the girl who flutters up under your
arm and says: ‘Oh! but you .really
mustn’t,’ and then kisses you herself,
as a bird pecks at a cherry, with an¬
other hysterical giggle, and then
trembingly waits for you to do it
again. There isn’Jinueh satisfaction
in that kind of a kiss, and it betrays
a shallow’ and vapid mind. The kiss
first mentioned is the work of a warm¬
hearted, impulsive, womanly wom&a,
who would make a good and true
wife and mothlr; the second betrays
the cold-blooded, calculating, unemo¬
tional woman, whom the average
man would do well to fight shy of.
And there are lots of other kisses,
each fully expressive in their way.
There’s a good deal in a kiss, v
-
boy.”

Didn’t Want Rl» Name on It.
A gentleman who passes in this
country for a pretty long headed
politician stepped into a store on’the
avenue yesterday and bought a very
handsome silk nmbrella.
“Would you like to have your
name engraved on the handle?”
asked the storekeeper.
“What for?”
“You might lose it.” 0
“Well, what good would my name
on the handle do me?”
“Why, if an honest person found it
he would return it to you.”
“Nonsense,” said the fpoliticiap,
“nobody is honest enough to return
an umbrella. A person who wouldn’t
think of stealing a cent will take an
umbrella without a twinge of con¬
science. I sometimes think it isn’t)
even dishonest to steal an umbrella,
and I guest a good many people
think the same thing.”
“Then you don’t wish it ingrav
ed?” ->
“No, of course not. You see if my
name is on itithe fellow who takes it
will know just whose • sight to keep
•it out of. But if I don’t putmy name
on it Istand some chance of catching
him^ith it. No, It will do better as
'
it is.” *
