OXLY A KISS. “Give me a kiss!” I said Blushing she hung, her head, As from her lips I stole That which did thrill my soul With estatic bliss! ‘■What may that be?” you say; Listen to me then, pray— Only a kiss. Days weeks hare passed since then Lonly I walk with men; Many a maiden fair Golden and raven hair. Proffer me this! Stilt fwrustfairiy own That her’s was sweet alone; Oh, such a kiss. Breath'like the balm of spring— Heart and soul fluttering— Eyes full of tender grace— Blushes o'er all her face— Something in this! Now I but sit and sigh, Naught to rememeberher by Only a kiss. Wit, Mm, ir. -Few ladies are so modest as to refuse to sit in the lap of luxury. -Why is a prosy preacher like the middle of a wheel ? Because the fellows around him are tired. -Why should the eldest of Victoria’s children be chief mourner at her funeral ? Because he is the Prince of Wails. -Change for the worse—a fellow who had been complained of for lying around loose, concluded to go about tight -Facts should always be stated in black white. Anything written in a red ink of course appears ink-red-ible. -Labors of the body free us from pains of the mind. That is what constitutes the happiness of the poor. -A little girl being told that the King’s and ker birthday was on the same day, asked her mother if the King and her were twins. -What is the difference between the manner of death of a barber and a sculptor ? One curls up and dyes—the other makes faces and busts. -Why does water boil sooner in an old saucepan than a new one ? Punch takes it upon himself to answer this obtruse query by saying: “It's because the old pan’s used to it.” -The girls of Willimantic, Conn., got to kissing Sheridan, and as the train moved off one buxom lass failed to reach his lips. “It was a miss,” said the martial Phil., “but a good line shot, nevertheless.” -One of the boys in a New Or leans school was asked, after various definitions had been given by others, mostly quiet correct, what was meant by the verb to tantalize. He replied : “It was to ask a great many questions and then criticise the answers. -Abel Perkins, of S , had a spite against Squire B , of the same town. Some one remarked in his hearing one day that the Squire was a mean man. ‘Mean!’ said Abel, “I guess he is. A yard of black tape would make him a suit of mourning, and then he’d have enough left for a weed on his hat.” -When a young gentleman once remarked in company how very liberally those persons talk of what their neighbors should give away who are least apt to give anything themselves, “Ah,” Sidney Smith replied, “when A sees B strugling in distress, it is not in human nature not to ask C to do something for him.” -Inquisitive little Miss—Ma, if I were to die and go to heaven, should I wear my Moire Anitque dress ?. Aristocratic Ma, —No my love; we can scarcely suppose that we shall wear the attire of this world in the next. Little Miss— Then tell me, Ma, how would the Lord know I belonged to the best society ? -An Irishman's friend having fallen into a slough, the Irishman called loudly to another for assistance. The latter, who was busily engaged in cutting a log, and wished to procrastinate, inquired, “How deep is the gentleman in?” “Up to his ankles,” was the answer. “Then there is plenty ol time,” said the other. “No there’s not,” rejoined the first, “I forgot to tell you he's in head first.
