Origin Of April Fools Day.
From the London Chronicl,


There is a limpness about first OF April
humor that shows it to be fast going the
way Of Twelfth cakes and valentines.
What the origin of All Fools day is no.
body quite seems TO know. Some place IL
in an old miracle play that used to be
acted about this time; others put Il far
back in heather times. The fact remains
that the practical Joker who used to be
able to send his victim tramping from door
to door with letter containing the words
Send the fool another mile" now has
to seek another opening for his curious
talent.
Some few years back DIR. Giuseppe Pitro
published a monograph on the origin of
April Fools day. The learned Italian folk
lorist dealt exclusively with the reasons
assigned by the Romans. Hindoos, English
French. German and Spanish for INDUCING
in practical jokes on the LIST OF April He
discussed fourteen different suggestions
as to the origin OF this almost universal
tradition, but declined to decide in favor
of any one of them. The most plausible
theory is based on general grounds. The
"speck of motley, which, according TO
Lamb. is In US all. assumes larger dimen-
sions at the approach OF spring; a day in
the yernal equinox has therefore been Set
apart by popular custom when every man
has license to indulge in his natural i'm
pulse to make fool OF himself and OF
other people. But the speck IL apparently
being eliminated from modern life.
