CITE ME KISSES. Give me kisses!—do not stay, Counting in that careful way, All the coins your lips can print Never will exhaust the mint; Kiss me, then, Every moment —and again! Give me kisses!—do not stop, Measuring nectar by the drop; Though to millions they amount, They will never drain the fount; Kiss me, then. Every moment —and again! Give me kisses!—all is waste Save the luxury we taste; And for kissing—kisses live Only when we take or give; Kiss me, then, Every moment, and again! Give me kisses!—though their worth Far exceeds the gems of earth; Never pearls so rich and pure Cost so little, I am sure; Kiss me, then, Every moment—and again! Give me kisses!—nay, ’tistrue, I am just as rich as you; And for every kiss I owe, I can pay you back, you know; Kiss me, then, Every moment—and again! -Good health is above wealth. -The more schools, the fewer jails. -A young man idle, an old man needy. -Diligence is the mother of good fortune. -He is rich whose income is more than his expenses. -Laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes him. -The world is ruled by three kings—Cash, Commerce, and Calico. -Flattery sits in the parlor, when plain dealing is kicked out of doors. -He who has good health is young, and he is rich who owes nothing. -Ladies are like watches—pretty enough to look at—sweet faces and delicate hands, but somewhat difficult to regulate when once started agoing. -“She isn’t all that my fancy painted her!” bitterly exclaimed a rejected lover; “and more than that, she isn't all that she paints herself.” -“What did you give for that horse?” inquired a friend of the facetious Mr. 8., as he was riding by. “My note;” was the reply “wasn’t that cheap enough ?” -Some atrocious cynic says that going to be married is very -much like going to be hanged, and observes that there is only the differ ence of an aspirate between the altar and the halter.

-A. sharp talking lady was reproved by her husband who requested, her to keep her tongue in her mouth. “Sly dear,” responded the wife, “It is against the law to carry weapons.” -Two old New England ministers were riding by a gallows, when 'The elder one asked the other, “Where would you be if that tree bore its proper fruit?” “Riding a:one, sir,” was the immediate p’y--A Methodist brother recently had occasion to preach a discourse against the doctrine of immersion but couldn't find a text until, with great shrewdness and good sense, he hit upon this : “Beware of divert/!—and strange doctrines.” -A loafer, on hearing that they charged five dollars a day for boardin California, said he would go there to live as he wished to get in some place where he could get his board charged to him. He is not particular about the price. -Deal gently with those who stray. Draw them back by love and persuasion. A kind word is more valuable to the lost than a mine of gold. Think of this, and be on your guard, ye who would chase to the grave an erring brother. -“Have you ground all the tools right as I told you this morning when I went away?” said a carpenter to a rather green lad whom he had taken for an apprentice. “All but the hand saw, sir,” replied the lad promptly : “T couldn’t get all the gaps out of that.”
