Now. st. Valentine Is the one par

ready and even anxious TO help lovers
out of this difficulty He has been the
refuge OF hating lovers for centuries
aud to bashful young folk Of both
sexes he has indeed proved himself TO
be a friend He Is the medium through
which many generations of hesitating
lovers have come to an understanding
II is perfectly safe To conclude that
the faint henrted lovers OF this present
year of grace Will not be deprived Of
his good offices. The lover who Is too
liiffident to voice his affection and the
girl who realizes that her lover needs
little helping out may employ gen

scribing the state Of their affections.
