denied as strongly that they were jew

patriots They were Jewish Chauvin-

ish society show its true face, or rather
its teeth to the Polish Jews, who wish
to squeeze themselves into the sanctum

also, and possibly most deeply, the up

Quo Vadis ?
Henry Sienkiewicz and the Jews.

The writer of with Fire and
Sword,' Henryk SienEiewicZ is on the
war-path. But naturally not III the
cause of freedom. Sienkiewcz has al
ready long ago gone over to the lkon-
worshippers and church-goers. Not for
nothing has he gloritied the Polish
wars-not for nothing has his Polish
pride closed his heart against every
thing earthly, as it keeps looking down
it's high descent like an eagle. 1t re-
uuires no special courage to swim with
the stream. But it needs a certain cour
age or hardihocd to join the ranks of
the lowest sort of street-criers-espec-
Henryk Sienkiewicz. We refer to the
now well-known ''Open writings, which
the Polish writer has done in the Polish
press and which have made great stir
in Poland and among Polish Jews. In
these letters Sienkiewicz looks from the
view point of the thorough going Polish
Nationalists, which is the view point also
of the National Democrats, Clcrcals and
Chauvinists. He declares that the edu-
Gated Jews stir up strife in Poland. lie
blames the Jews for all Of Poland s cal
antilles. for the dissessiOn which has
been raging so long in Poland. This IS
naturally water to the mill OF Polish
anti-Semites, who call themselves Ma
tional Democrats, the same who in the
elections for the first Duma were such
bitter opponents Of the Jews. 1t is read
ilv understood that writer like Sien-
kiewicz who draws his material from the
past history of the Polish people, should
betray a strong sympathy for Polish Ma
tionalism. but it is very character
istic that Polish Nationalism is also deep
dyed with Anti-Semitism, thoroughly
imbued with hatred for Jews. Not only
for the ordinary Jews-these the Poles
want ever to keep at distance-but

We Can Find It's Origin In an Ancient
Roman Feast.

We Can Find Its Origin In an Ancient
Roman Feast.
A fact in natural history-to wit,
that birds in southern Europe pair
about the middle of February-is
said to have inspired q custom of
the ancient Romans to which the
origin of the modern valentine can
undoubtedly be traced. At the
feast of the Lupercalia, held in hon
or of the great god P12, the names
Of the virgin daughters of Rome
'were'put ina bo1~andf drawn there
from by the young men. Each
youth was bound to offer q gift to
the maiden who fell to his lot and
to make her his partner during the
time of the feast. How this secular
custom became allied to the name
Of q saint is altogether q different
matter. st. Valentine was q bishop
Of Rome during the third century.
He is said to have been a man OF
very amiable nature and most elo-
quent of speech, wherefore be was
very successful in converting the
pagan Romans to Christianity. Mar
Gus Aurelius was then emperor, q
relentless prosecutor of the Chris
tians, and by his order the bishop
was beheaded. The date of his death
was Feb. IA, 270 A. D. We find the
statement in Archbishop Wheat
ley's illustrations Of the Book Of
Common Prayer" that est. Valen-
tine was a man of admirable parts
and 90 famous for his love and char
ity that the custom of choosing val
entines upon his festival took its
rise from thence" But probably
the connection of name Is wholly
due to a coincidence of date. When
the saints name was placed in the
church calendar the day Of his
death was made festival to Offset
that of the Lupercaia, on the 18th.
In Allen Buffers "Lves Of the
Saints" we read that the jealous
Christian fathers tried to substitute
the names of the saints for those
of girls in the lottery game, but
without success. So the "valen-
tine" custom spread from Rome
through Europe to Great Britain,
always in high favor, and later, in
the form Of sending tender missives,
came to America and down to the
present time.-Housekeeper.

In the Mayors Court.

George Carol, a negro who
conducts a negro restaurant in
town, was arrested yesterday
by Marshal Anderson for riding
on the train without a ticket.
1t seems that Carol went aboard
Train 81 and bought whiskey
from the news agent. Before
the transaction was completed
the train started off and Carol
went with it. Marshal Anderson
had his eagle optic on Carol
and pulled him on the charge
above stated. The dusky res
taurateur yielded with reluct-
ance but by dint of moral
suasion and a little jiu jitsu he
was prevailed upon to come
along. He was brought before
the mayor and fined s. for
riding on the train without a
ticket and SIS for resisting
arrest, making the fine $40 in
all, which the town no doubt
needs.

Death Of Mrs. Liffaqe.

1t becomes my most painful
duty to announce to our friends
the death of Mrs j E Lifrage.
She was taken i'll on Thursday,
March II, 1907, with pneumonia.
Ali that medical skill and loving
friends could do was done, but
to no avail. She gradually grew
worse and on April 8, at 4 o.
clock, she quietly and sweetly
passed away.
Mrs Lifrage was AZ years of
age, and she became a member
of Union Presbyterian church
while young girl. She was a
true, devoted and faithful
church worker and her seat in
church was never vacant. She
was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs
W J Montgomery. The bereaved
family have the sympathy of
the entire community. Mrs
Lifrage leaves a husband, four
children and four sisters, besides
other relatives and friends.

fingers in the lap OF spring.
The recent cold has played hav.

bles. Some of our farmers are
plowing up and replanting their
corn.
Rev. j A White filled his reg.

gave US a good sermon from the
words, "Christ came to seek and
to save that which was lost"

nearing completion and our eff
Gent teachers. Misses Rosa Gra-
ham and Maud Sharp,are drilling
their pupils for commencement,
which will take place in about
three weeks, when they expect
to occupy the new building for
said purpose if not sooner.
We have been having a peace
full time since. our county grog
shops have been closed. No
drunken, rowdy crowds passing
now, using language too inde-
cent for modest men to hear.
much less our mothers, wives
and daughters. Who wouldn't
rather enjoy this peace and
quiet than to have three times
the revenue that it brings?
Can't the good people get up a
petition for another vote on the
question, "dispensary or no dis
pensary," and let US bury the
peace-destroying sin-makinjg in
stitution face downward so if it
ever scratches out it will come
