VALENTINE DAY.

Saint Valentines Day l. thought
to be observed in commemoration Of
Saint yalentmus, a Christian martyr
who lost his head In the year 270 A.
d.
Now. from all We can learn Of the
customs Of this appsoacAias day It
commemorates the millions Of mar
tyr, who lost their hearts rather than
the one who has lost his head. Or,
maybe. now We come TO think OF
II. II il for the benefit Of thoes
who lose both heart and head. SO
many do, you know. Anyway the rec
ord goes on: 1.-The custom OF SEND
ing valentines Is a very ancient one.
Traces II II have been detected
among the observanccs Of the north
ern pagans Of ancient Europe"
Some say birds select their mates
on this day, and others trace the
days custom OF declaring ones love
to the Roman SupercslIa. al which
season the Romans observed simiia
practice.
We may not understand its origin
which like the origins Of several o'
our interesting customs is shroudes
in mystery. but We can accept 1t Oh
faith. take all the valentines we car
get. and accredit none that We take
Be sure your valentine viii be awah
ing you Wednesday morning.
