Kissing as a form of general sal
utation is quite beyond the pale of
discussion in this liberty loving land.
Nobody will submit to it. Even
the girls of the younger set, who,
like girls of every younger set in ev
ery country, B. ('. or A. D., ds the
terrible infant of the inflamed im
agination of the elderly alarmist,
doesn't kiss everyone.
If you dont believe it try it and
find out the truth.
Moreover youth 'and health are,
armor against germs, like beaten
breast plate and burnished buckler be
fore the sword's point.
Th3 danger, to public health, lies,
therefore in the handshake. Nearly
anyone will shake hands with nearly
everyone. Even persons who are not
in politics shake hands quite promis
cuously. So. if one may jumble, or
jugie. anatomical terms and mix
metaphors the heel of Achilles is the
palm of the human being of the per
iod. That may sound reasonable, or
even possible, but it is both. There
fore the London Lancet not Lon
don Punch proposes that a new
form of salutation be established
"such as placing a couple of fingers
on the , forehead."
The forehead?
Whose?
If upon one's own forehead the
salutation may be fairly safe. But
the hand lest i: has become infec
tious from handling money, as in the
case of a member of the intellectual
proletariat should not be brought
past the mouth to reach the forehead.
Germs might be inhaled.

Don Quixote is the last character
