From his appearance I decided that a soul kiss must be decidedly less lurid and disturbing than-the-common-or piazza variety known to Vesta~ta Wiesta as a sense kiss. But when I returned later the seeress assured me this was far from being tHe case. “Compared with the ecstasy of a soul kiss,” she declared emphatically, “the sense kiss 1s the merest zephyr. The sense kiss is not satisfying. ‘There Is something wanting in tt.

She is both man and-woman herself.” “Then you claim to be a Mahatma?” I asked. “In India I might be called s Mahatma,” she replied, “but as we are in America, I call myself a seer. My soul name, Vesta La Viesta,” she ex- pounded, “means godde&t (sic) of all seers.” “By goddest you mean most godlike?” I interrupted. “Yes,” she acquiesced, and thereby spoiled a theory I had formed, for Vesta being the name of a Roman goddess opposed to all kisses, whether of the soul or sense,.I had surmised that the seeress’s second name was mere- ly the first with a kink put in it—perhaps by the soul kisses. “How do you teach this egal Kies?” I ventured, “and how long does it take to learn?” “The soul kiss,” Vesta La Viesta expounded, “must be exchanged by two ripened soults. My course is metaphysical and ripens the soul. The seat of the soul is the solar plexus!” Then I remarked when I had gotten my breath after this remarkable mt: “If Corbett had had a ripened pool: Fitzaimmon © solar Dlexus ould Hot have Kriocked Bie. “It would not,” replied Vesta La Viesta ¥!
