ST. VALENTINES DAY.
On 1t All Young Hearts May Be
MerrY and Cav.

All the seasons have their signs and tok
ems. In the olden times, long before there
arose distinctions between Jew and Gentle
Romans and barbarans, Christians and
heathens. the divisions OF time known a.
months came to be distinguished by the
speciality of temperature, and those char
acteristics which make up the history OF
man.
January, sour-visaged, lusty and buster
ing, yet having some lines OF kindness, locks
up the earth and the waters in a fatherly
embrace; March, open-eyed and dusty with
the released wealth of winter; April, with
its rainbows; May, with its blossoms; June
with its roses; July, with its meadows watt
ing perfumed promises into every home
stead; August, with its rich treasures ready
for the gathering; September. with the last
blush of summer on its cheeks; October
with its jubilant chorus of the winds; No
vember with its instructive warning of ap
preaching change, and December, despite
the rain clouds which lower on its brow,
with its halowed assocations each has
story to tell. The youthful mind with un
doubling ecstasy eXclams: Commend us to
l1ebruary-the month in which in fair Italy
the birds begin to pair.
1t WAS in February that certain st. Val
entine, who must have been the Colenso of
his age, was put to a cruel death by certain
dogmatists, who could not see anything good
either in him or the gospel he preached; and
because the martyr suffered at the time
spring was about to open its silver gates,
and the wrong was done while those self
same dogmatsts were holding one of their
love festivals, the memory Of the death, and
when it happened, passed unbroken into dis
tant generations; and thus it is that, in
Christian lands, Just as the cold shadows of
winter are beginning to put on their livery
of gray, the saint of the fourth century is
made the annually presiding genius OF the
loves OF every recurring year. So it has
BEEN and SO may it ever be. The march of
ineSorabe circumstances has left us but lit.
tie of the poetry of life, and what we have let
us cling to hard and fast Existence, with.
out one true rainbow in its sky, would be
ntoerable, therefore it is that the festival
OF St. Valentine is so honored
All hail, then, to st. Nalentine-the first
gentleman of Christendom, and the only
saint in whom young folk put implicit trust.
He is the venerable father of sentiment.
ST. Valentine wields the enchanter's wand
which can at will reveal either the defolmi.
ty or beauty of the heart lie delights in the
latter. To him all that is natural is true
and beautiful. AS the flower wooes the
morning sunbeams, SO st. Valentine, with
a paterna smile, bids all young hearts to
be merry and wise. Love is duty enjoned
upon everyone, and to love well is TO live
well.
All hail, then, we again say, to st. Valen.
tine. His day is the white one in the cal.
endar OF destiny, and may no evil influence
ever dim the fun and loving kindness of its
celebration.

FREELAND, PA, FEBRU ARYl4, 1895


John NJ. Garman, chairman of the
Democratic state central committee,
issued the following circular last week.
The signs Of the times indicate that a
Democratic victory in Pennsylvania is
this year not only possible. but probable.
In order to insure such n result our
party must present Il united front and
90 into the campaign with a vigorous
determination to fight the common
enemy. In order that an opportunity
may be given for an interchange of opin-
ions whereby our differences may be ad
insted and Il common ground of action
selected, it is deemed advisable to call
upon our leading Democrats to meet
together for consultation.
"Republican cnmitcs have broken
their ranks, and Republican misgoveru-
ment has so diSgustcd the honest voters
of Pennsylvania that they are ready to
look to the Democratic party for relief.
IF, without the abandonment of our
principles or theappearance of cowardice
or surrender of convictions. we can con
struct Il platform upon which all good
Democrats aud all other honest men can
stand. we believe that 1s0s will bring
victory to Democracy. and good govern
ment to our grand old commonwealth.
Il have therefore invited goodly
number OF our leading Democrats to
meet in the Board of Trade rooms Al
Harrisburg on Thurday evening, Febru-
airy II, at '.3) o'clock, for the purI os Of
comparing views and taking such action
as the party may deem best for the gen
eral welfare of our party, This invita-
tion is not sent to Democrats of any
factonal aIlilation, but'to good men, no
matter what may have been their former
alliances

Warm and CQId-BIOOded Animals.

Animals have been called warm.
blooded and cold-blooded, but the dis
tinction is less sharply drawn than was
once supposed, as one class graduates
into the other. In q paper to the
Royal Society Of Victoria, Mr.. Alexan-
der Sutherland mentions that the in
vertebrates have the capacity of pro-
aucing heat, although they ore cold
blooded, but, except the insects, their
temperature seldom rises more than a
fraction Of degree above that Of the
medium in which they live. Certain
Invertebrates, such as polypi, molluses
and crustacea, raise themselves one
third Of q degree to degree above
their environment. Insects, though
essentially cold FLOODED, are usually
degree or two warmer than their
medium, but capable Of remarkable
warming with exertion. Fishes, am.
phibia and reptiles also heat them
selves on moving. A species Of blind
worm is said to rise as much as four
teen degrees above the temperature Of
the air. The warm FLOODED animals
have nearly fixed temperatures, and
10 not vary with the Dir, the mono
tremes, the lowest in the scale Of the
mammals, having q temperature of
about seventy to eighty-ive degrees,
while the marsupials average about
ninety-three to ninety-seven degrees,
and the average Of the higher orders
seems to be from ninety-nine degrees
to 104 degrees. Birds range between
l03 degrees and 10S degrees. In
very general way it may be said tha!
bodily activity depends upon bodily
temperatures. Trenton IN. J.) Ameri'

Vitality of tho "Lifc Plant"

There is creeping moss found in
the islands Of Jamaica, Barbados and
other parts Of the West Indies, known
as the ''life plant" Its power Of vi
tality is beyond that Of any other
member of the vegetable kingdom. II
is absolutely indestructible by any
means except immersion in boiling
water or the application of red-hot
iron. 1t may be cut up and divided
in any manner, and the smallest
shreds will throw out roots, grow and
form buds. The leaves of this ex-
traordinary plant have been suspended
in the air of dry room, they have
been placed in close, alright box,
without moisture of any sort, and still
they grow. Even when pressed and
packed away in q botanist's herbarium
it has been known to grow. Ever
green leaves sometimes remain on the
tree for several years; for instance, in
the Scotch pine, three or four years;
the spruce and silver fir, six or seven
years; the yew, eight; Ables pinsapo,
sixteen or seventeen. Tit Bits.

The Great Russian Canal to connect

feet four inches, q width ut the bottom
Of ZIG feet eight inches, and q width
at the top Of zig feet eight inches. Its
total length is some 1000 miles, but
only 1925 miles will be an artificial

the Duna as far as Dunaburg. From
that point to Lepel, on the Beresina,
IN expensive cut must be made. From
The Lepel the course Of the Beresina
will be utilized as far as its junction

Justice Harlan's Chewing Gum.

Justice Harlan is the most digni6ed
man on the Supreme bench when he
is on the bench. His gigantic figure
looms up above the others like giant
among pigmies. He sits neyt to Chief
Justice Fuller, and the contrast is
pronounced. When he is notin court
Justice Harlan plays golf, walks,
romps with his grandchildren and his
dogs, and enjoys life thoroughly.
Yesterday he delayed street car sew
eral minutes while he and his little
granddaughter drove back the dogs
that were bent on following them to
the depot. On the car the nurse re-
buked the little girl for chewing gum.
"Why grandpa gave it to me. He
chews gum, and can do what grand
pa does" "Of course you can," said
the Judge. "Here is enough to last
you oil the way to Chicago" And he
took out big package Of chewing
gum and tucked it away in the little
girls satchel. The other passengers
smiled, and the nurse was silent. The
Judge and his granddaughter con-
tinued to chew gum in absolute in
difference to all the rest Of the street.
