Valentines Why do we Send Them d?

American Agricultruist.
Many boys on the night of the
third day of July do not go to bed, or
if they do so, they arrange to be call
ed long before sunrise, that they may
fire guns, blow horns, and make
various other noises, by way of "cele-
brating the Fourth of July" Ifthese
boys were asked: "What is the
Fourth of July, and why do you cele-
brate it?" they would be at a loss for
an answer. The fourteenth day of
February is regarded as st. Valen-
tines day, and in many places it is
the custom with young people to
send Valentines to their friends of
the opposite sex. This used to be a
pleasant letter, ornamented with cut
paper and other devices by the send
er, the chief point being to keep from
the one who received it the name of
the giver. These missives were call
ed "Valentines." OF late years,
Valentines" so called, are made for
sale; some of them being marvels of
cut and embossed paper, and pictures,
grading all the way down to vile and
insulting caricatures, which no decent
person would look at, much less pur-
chase. Ifany girl is asked what is a
valentine, and why do you send it on
February fourteenth? She will be as
much puzzled for an answer as her
brother, when asked to tell, why he
celebrates the fourth day of July.
The answer probably would be that
'it is st. Valentines Day." but if
asked, who was st. Valentine, and
why should his day be celebrated?
They would be no worse off than the
learned men, who have tried to an
swer the same question. If there
ever was a st. Valentine, it is doubt
full if he had anything to do with our
Valentines Day. Those who have
looked into the matter say, that in
very early times, in several countries,
especially those in the northern part
of Europe, it was the custom of the
young people to assemble: the names
of the girls were placed in the box,
from which the young men drew
them. The girl whose name was
drawn was to be to the young man
who drew it, his valentine" and he
was to show her special attention fol
the year. 1t is said, that these sim
aginary engagements" often led them
to make real ones.

A GOOD Word for tho Editor.

The painstaking and the conscien-
tious editor, as truly rs the conscien-
tious and the painstaking pastor, may
not hope always to escape misappre-
tensions and resulting misjudgments.
The preacher in his pulpit. and the
editor at his desk, will alike aim to
speak truthfnlly and kindly. The high
est law with each respectively is and
must ever bs the law of an intelligent
fidelity. Both are under those human
limitations which include almost neces-
sary mistakers and errors. But both,
as true to the Master, will seek always
and ever, rising above whatever is per-
sonal or born Of prejudice, to s'judge
righteous Judgment whenever speak
ing Of men or Of things in general. -
