Defends the Kiss.
An indignant Kentucky editor
who resents the recent publication
in an eastern paper of the state
ment, “We don’t believe that
kisses from the lips of a pretty
girl taste as good now-a-days as
they did twenty years ago,” has
filed the following brief for Kiss
of Today et al., defendants in the
case:
“Well, by the dimples on Cup
id’s anatomy, if that isn’t rank
treason and sacrilege to our most
cherished institution, we’ll eat the
office towel! Taste as good as
they did twenty years ago! Why,
there never was a time from the
instant upon which Adam and Eve
collaborated on the pristine kiss
when one didn’t taste good. The
silvery stars sang for joy in the
silent heavens until the golden
moment when the kiss was born.
The rose and the violet were nox
ious weeds and nectar was as flat
as circus lemonade until the
world’s first lovers felt the soul
stirring thrill of that bubble bliss
—the kiss.
“Taste as good as they did twen
ty years ago! Oh, benighted
brother, they taste as good now r
as they did when Mordecia kissed
Esther, when Leander kissed He
ro, when Antony kissed Cleopa
tra, when Aucassin kissed Nico
lette, w r hen Romeo kissed Juliet,
when Dante kissed Beatrice,
when John Alden kissed Priscilla,
when Herman kissed Dorothea —
just as good, you sour souled sin
ner, as they did on that night of
nights a score of years ago when
you and she were darlings of the
gods and she held up to you those
quivering tosebuds to let you sip
the honey they contained.
“Does a kiss taste as good!
Does it? You know it!”
Card of Thanks.

to our many friends for their

AN IDEAL-
We have in mind to snake the Bank of Stockbridge, relatively
speaking, the safest Bank in the State of Georgia, there ar • those to
rise up each day to say we cannot put into effect some of the drastic
corrective innovations we have in mind without alienating some of
our present business, but experience teaches us otherwise.
The abuses, due to the overwhelming desire for business, must be
overcome, and to this task we have set ourselves with grim determina
tion Some of these problems are :
(t) To see tint no single name paper comes into the bank unless
secured or well rated (2) To prevent the Bank’s money being used
as capital for another’s business. (3) To see to it that the officers and
directors do not borrow excessively the bank’s money. (4) To make
no unusually large loans no matter how attractive. (5) To prevent
overdrafts.

She Told Her Neighbor.
“I told a neighbor whose very
young child had croup about Fo
ley’s Honey and Tar,” writes Mrs.
Qedkamp, 2404 Herman St., Cov
ington, Ky. “She thought that
the child surety would die it was
so bad. When she gave it a cou
ple doses of Foley’s Honey and
Tar she was so pleased with tlie
change she did not know what to
say.” This old reliable cough
syrup immediately helps coughs,
colds, croup and whooping cough.

“De Circus Am Here.”
One hot July afternoon Rastus
Johnsing, a gentleman of color,
and his family of nine, who de
pended almost entirely on the
town for their support, started
away from home all togged out in
their best, each carrying a supply
of eatables. One of their bei e
faetors happened to meet them on
the road.
“Well, Uncle Rastus, where are
you going with all your family so
dressed up?” he asked.
“Well, boss," said Rastus,
“doan’ you know de circus am
come to town?”
“Yes; but I can’t afford to take
all my family.”
“Well, I’ll tel! yer, boss, it’s jes
dis er way wid us. We done soi’
de heatin’ stove ’cause de winter
am fur off but de circus am
here!”
Troubled at Night.

was bothered with Hurting in back

to get up several times. Since
taking Foley Kidney Pills I sleep
all nignt without getting up.”
