Are You Out of Sorts
Many People, Not Really Sick, Are
Out Of Sorts-The OId-Time Energy

the system had been overtaxed
br weakened by care, work, folly, ex-

steady nerves are essential to
perfect health and enjoyment of life.
When vitality is lacking, pleasures
cease and work becomes a drudge

body. With either of them impaired
life loses much of it's charm. Moth

MERRY ST. VALENTINE.
The Lovers Own Day Comes Again
with Its Happy obser-
vances.

There il no good reason for believing
that Cupid and st. Valentine were on
particularly familiar terms. The care
full Judgment of centuries has not
shown any evidence that the old priest
and martyr was the least concerned In
matters of love. Nevertheless, Valen-
tine has for centuries beer known as
the patron saint Of sweethearts. He
was a bishop of Rome during the third
century, and is said to have achieved
great success In converting the pagan
Romans to Christianity. h wrath
of the emperor, Marcus Aurelius
Claudius, was for this reason visited
upon him and he was ordered to be
beaten outside the city, and later to be
brought within and b~eheaded. The
day of his death was February IA, 27O
A. d. When the Jain came to be
placed in the calendar his name was
given to the day of HIT death, and thus
was created a festival which Offset
that Of the Lupercalla, which was OBJ
served the 18th of the same month.
Now the feast of the Lupercalia was
an ancient Roman celebration in
nOuOT VI 1du duu JuhOs HLhoh6 INV
numerous ceremonies known to have
taken place at this time was that OF
placing in a box slips on which were
written names of the young women
present. These were drawn out by
the young men, and each youth had to
offer a gift to the maid who fell to
his lot, and to become her partner
while the merriment lasted. AS the
Lupercalian feast and St Valentines
day were SO nearly coincident they
came in time to be observed on the
same day. And as has so often hap
pened with pagan feasts and modern
days of special meaning or interest,
the significance as we'll as the time
Of these two gradually merged INTO
one.
In due time England took up with
much zest the celebration of this low
ers' holiday. 1t found its IA also
into Scotland and France. and later, of
course, into America. An early Eng
lish writer says: "Oh the eve of the
14th of February, 8. Valentines day,

the young folks in England and Scot
land, by a very ancient custom, cele-
brate a little festival. An equal num-
Der of maids and bachelors get to-
gether. Each write their true or some
feigned name upon seperate billets.
which they roll up, and draw by way
of lots, the maids taking the mems
billets and the men the maids; SO
that each of the young men lights
upon a girl that he calls his valen-
tine, and each of the girls upon a
young man which she calls hers. BY
this means each has two valentines,
but the man sticks faster to the val
entine that is fallen to him than to
the valentine to whom he is fallen.
Fortune having thus divided the COM
pany into 30 many couples, the val
entines give balls aud treats to their
mistreBses, and veal their billets
several days upon their bosoms or
sleeves, and this little sport often end
in love"
Of curse there were various su-
perstitions connected with the day.
In a letter written about the year
1854 by a young English girl we have
a glimpse of some of the earlier ones.
She says: Last Friday was Valen-
tines day, and the night before | got
