Valentines Day and the store window
bear full evidence of that fact. The cul
tom of sending remembrances has il

treasury of the postal department

depletion of the physical endurance an
good temper of the army of postal en-

find the old comic ones on the marke

this year it is probable that Saturdl
and Monday will be the busy days
