VALENTINE SEASON. The ime-honored
custom Of remembering as well as punish
ing, with valentines commenced its annual
round yesterday. In fact the shops dealing
in these missives have been well patronized
for several days. but yesterday was st.
Valer tines Day, and the season was form
ally opened The ordinary course of the
fever IS expected to last about two weeks, but
in extreme cases it continues frequently a
month. OF those being sent with tenderest
intentions and with expectations of palpitat
ing results, the Postmaster will probably
have more on hand at the close of the season
than any other recipient in the city. Qaite
a per cent. Of those deposited in the office for
delivery in the city by carriers have only one
cent postage upon them, which is only enough
to make them keep" in the office, but not
enough 70 insure delivery. Two cents post
age is required, and those who have failed to
put thse amount upon their tender missives
have only showered them at the Postmaster,
who has passed the emotional period.
