st. Valentines Day was originally
the day dedicated to the incoming Of
spring. The Romans kept it in honor
OF Pan and Juno, and the festival,
which lasted several days, was called
'Lupercalia." The early Christian
church, desiring to effect a change In
this much-abused feast, very adroi.Iy
! reconstructed the old practice of the
lottery OF lovers names. In place OF
the names OF real youths and maid
ems, whose appellations, written on
slips OF paper, were drawn by the
young people of the time, the church
! substituted the names of the saints.
The idea had its own beauty, and the
ncticn of dedication was thus pre-

In the old Roman festival. This feast,
and not the existence of the real ST.
Valentine, is the origin of the gallant

what Is approximately the present
amount OF the earthquake fund, be-

Some ST. Valentine "Don'ts."

Remember that you want to enjoy
the st. Valentine party as we'll as
your guests; therefore observe these
rules:
Don't fret and worry every hour ct
the preceding day until you are ner-
vous and sensitive to everything that
gees wrong.
'on't rush your games too close on
each others heels. Young people like
to talk.
Don't seem to be making an effort
to entertain them at every moment.
Suggest the games when the talking
grows a little less spirited.

NO MEDICINE
Dut n Change of Food Gave Relief.

Many persons are learning that
drugs are not the thing to rebuild
worn out nerves, but proper food is
required.
There is a certain element in the
cereals, wheat, barley. etc, which is
grown there by nature for food to
brain and nerve tissue. This ia the
phosphate OF potash, of which Grape
Nuts food contains large proportion.
In making this food all the food
elements in the two cereals, wheat
and barley, are retained. That is why
30 many heretofore nervous and run
down people find in Grape-Nuts q
true nerve and brain food.

That Little Valentine Boy.

His other name is Cupid That Is
what the old Romans called him.
He had still another name given him
by the early Greeks, Eros. But what
ever he may be called, he is the same
jolly little sprite that you paint, draw
or paste on your valentines as the
love fairy.
He looks very harmless with his
chubby-baby cheeks and his loving
eyes. But lcok at him closely and
you will find in those eyes sparks Of
mischief glintine through the love,
like points Of mica in a quartz rock.

Inhuman Revenge.

AT Amitc City, La, as result Of
an ambuscade growing out of a ram
lily feud, two women and a man we're
killed, one of the alleged assasins is
being held under a heavy guard and
the country for miles around is being
searched for another man alleged to
be implicated in the murders, which
occurred recently. 1t is alleged that
as Benjamin Breland, his wife and
Mrs. Joseph Everitt, the latter carry
ing an infant in her arms, were max
ing their way homeward along one of
the parish roads, Avery Blount and
Garfield kinchen fired on them from
the side of the road with shotguns.
Mrs. Averitt fell with her baby into
the road, her head blown almost off.
Mrs. Breland's breast was torn of
by one of the volleys and Breland
himself fell at the first fire. Young
people driving home from a party
found the baby crawling about among
the bodies. Breland was still living
and was able to murmur the name of
Kinchen before he died. Avery
Blunt was captured after an all-night
search and says that Kinchan killed
Sreland, but will not say who killed
the woman. Mrs. Everitt IS husband
was killed by Ben Kinchen, a brother
OF Garfield, several days ago, and the
widow and her baby were making
their home with the Brelands. Bad
feeling has existed among the fami.
hej for number of years. - - r.

Lame Back Prescription.

Considerable discussion Is being
caused among the medical fraternity
by the increased use Of whiskey for
lame back and rheumatism. 1t is an
almost infallible cure when mixed
with certain other ingredients and
taken properly. The following Is the
formula:
TO one ounce Of Toris compound
and one ounce syrup Sarsaparilla COM
pound add one-half pint of good whis-
key. Take in tablespoonful doses
before each meal and before retir-
:ng."
1t is surely worth trying by any
one who may be afflicted.
