ST. VALENTINES DAY.

Superstition is nearly as old as man
and that il exists now quite as strong
though not as widespread as in the early
ages OF our world, is proved by the varI-
GUS rites and ceremonies practiced on
certain days throughout the year. Even
those who ridicule them, yet participate
in them just for fun have a lingering
half-suspicion i'll their minds that they
might come true" especially is this the
case when inclination points the way. ST.
Valentine is the acknowledge patron saint
OF lovers; and the peculiar customs con-
nected with The day were referred to by
writer's nearly 500 years ago. The st.
Valentine who suffered mariyrdom on the
i4lh of February was one OF tifty-two
saints OF that name but nothing has ever
been found in his life or in the lives OF
any OF them, that would give occasion for
the singular observances OF the day. 1t
has been maintained that 1t was an an.
cient custom among the Romans during
the Lupercala, celebrated in the month
OF February for the boys and men to
draw the names of their future wives III
honor of their goddess, Februate Juno,
and that the Christian clergy finding ii
absolutely impossible TO abolish this
heathen practice changed it to religious
ceremony by writing on the slips Of paper
instead OF the names OF women those oil
particular SAINTS whom they were to fol-
low and initiate during the year.
In England, Scotland, France and some
other parts of the continent it was form
erly the custom OF the young people to
meet. write each others or some of their
acquaintances names on slip of paper,
which were thrown into box from which
they were drawn, the men taking the
girls names and vice versa. The person
thus drawing became ones valentine and
for whole year was bound to devote
himself to the one who drew him. Some
times, of course, this lead 10 real engage
ments between the parties, and otter
tricks were played in such way that the
slips of paper fell into the hands the,
were meant for. During the fifteenth
century married people could be choseI
as well as those who were not married
and often very valuable presents were ex
changed
This would be great and glorious oil,
world in few years if our children woul,
only achieve what we expect and predic
