Of this day Chambers Informa ton fo
the People says: "St. Valentine was {
Priest of Rome, martyred in the Sd century
but he seems to have had no connection
with the notions and practices to which his
day has since been given up. This, it is
scarcely necessary to say, is day, though,
to be especially devoted to the business o
Cupid and Hymen. Possibly, it being
about the season when tho birds choose
their mates Is the cause" Some have alst
associated the fsasts of ancient Rome in
honor Of Pan and june, which were held Al
this time, with the present customs, but the
forigin of tho connection between the time
and the observance seems to be in doubt
and mostly a matter Of speculation.
The old d-fashioned and legitimate .cclcbra
ton of the day was for company Of young
people to assemble and each to draw one
from the names Of oil present, and whoeve,
was drawn was the drawers Valentine
Other things being all right, this was often
a "big step" towards matrimonial ALI

But the day and its celebration have de.
generated. 1t is now mostly used as gloI
ious opportunity to got good rigs on some
riend or acquaintance who may bs . good
subject for caricature and machine poetry
The day Is hugely enjoyed in this way BY
thousands, and "Cupid and Hymen, Par
and Juno" have about as much to do with
il as any other heathen divinity. We dom
know but the day is, after all. about as ap
propriately kept as 1t ever has been.
