Carlyle on Right and Wrong.

Carlyle maintained that q strain of sentiment about criminals was very prevalent in his day, which tended serl- ously to obliterate or diminish the real difference between right and wrong. He hated with an Intense hatred that whole system of philosophy which de nied that there was q deep, essential, fundamental difference between right and wrong and turned the whole mat ter Into a mere calculation of inter- ests. He was accustomed to say that one Of the chief merits of Christianity was that 1t taught that right and wrong were as far apart as heaven and hell and that no greater calamity can be- fall nation than a weakening of the righteous hatred of evil

LOVER'S DAY HsIEhELS lgs s-s-~-"--~ Today Set Apart for ChOOs-
 ing Mates

Today is sacred to the memory Of St. Valentine, and almost since the begin ming of our literature it is regarded in connection with the mating of those of opposite sexes. It is believed that this idea of the day came from Sn old 6eiiet that on St. Valentines day the birds chose their mates for the year.
 Chaucer refers to the birds obser- vance of the day in his Parliament Of Fowls" saying: This is Saint Yalen tines day when every bird cometh hither 10 choose his mate. ntis also allud. ed to by Skakspere in the same counec- ton.
 ShakSUere was among those who have caused the day to be forever associated with cuurtshtp and marriage and senti- meats of love. He gives it that turn several times, notable in those words tn Hamlet, which say:
 .To-morrow Is St. Valentines day,
 All the morning betime,
 And l maid at your window,
 To be your Valentine"
 St. Valentines day has been observed much as it is now for several centuries, though the satirical features of the dsy are probably not of 50 ancient origin as are the amatory, The lines from Hamlet referred to were written in 1900, the last year of the l6th century, and they had to do with much earlier period in the worlds history.
 Iu 1866, Pepys wrote in his famous diary, ou February II (which, by the way. was St. Valentines day with the Old Style calendar ss it is with the Gregorian,) "I am also this year my wite's valentine, and it will cost me sl; but that must have laid out if we had not been Valentines.

 As far back as IT30 there was iD Paris a man dreSsmaker, probably the first of his kind. His name was Rhomberg. and he was the son of a Bavarian peasant from the neighbor- hood of Munich.

In regard to the cancellation of the

which is one half the day rate is still
in force between points reached by
the Maine and New England systems,
and therefore may be made use of to
practically all points where Somerset

night rate and, while they control ex-
tensive territory, it is so remote from
