The Valentine.

Next TO our rejection OF Santa Claus
the worst thing that the sophistica-
ton of time does for us is 10 de-
stroy our interest In the other best
dates in the calendar. II some of us
strove TO keep that interest alive we
might know life better and live longer.
One of these days is st. Valentines,
now near at hand. There was a time
in life of most men and women of
middle age today when the approach
of February Ia meant thrill. IL was
a day of sentiment and humor. To the
very young it was an occasion for the
exhibition of irresponsible and frC,
quently cruel play in the dispatch of
"comic"-and mostly coarse--valen-
tines. Old maids and bachelors and
other grownups OF we'll known weak
nesses and tender sensibilities suffer
ed most but even these could afford
to forgive and ignore the thoughtless
effrontery OF children. The other and
elaborate valentines, however. If sent
anonymously, bore a mysterious, even
celestial message. There are many
thousands OF women still living to-
day who have some Of these lacy col
orful creations preserved in lavender.
And why not? There is all too little
OF the tender and innocent expression
of distant and respectful regard for
women TO be noted among men just
now. and altogether too much of a
bolder and degrading admiration

VALENTINE DAY
LONG IN FAVOR
Centuries Have Failed to Dim the
Memory of the Good Old
Saint.
DISPUTE AS TO HIS IDENTITY
AZ Least Two Bishops Of Ancient
Times Have Been Credited With
the Honor Of Being the Founder
Of the Day Consecrated
to Cupid.

ut. VALENTINE of blessed mem
ory, whose natal day falls upon
~ the 14th- OF February, seems to
be the saint of this particular
season. His customs, which have sur
vived the lapse of centuries. are as
sociated in our minds with the send
ing of various amatory epistles, and
the rather more agreeable gifts and
presents. which are occasionally sent
by the young men and maidens, one
to another.
New York and New Workers still
retain memories of the saint, who
seems TO have been like his associate,
the good st. Nicholas, a patron saint
of the Netherlands, and in this con-
nection we, perhaps on account OF our
Dutch ancestry, celebrate his festival
with kettledrum, says the New York
Times. Far back in the mists of an
tiquity lies the origin OF the custom
of sending letters, or valentines, on
the saints day, while the original st.
Valentine would appear TO be gifted
cat, or reincarnations under the same
title, for we find two bishops Of the
name a Virgin martyr. and a Tyro-
lean saint, all OF whom have authentic
records of their lives and deaths pre-
served in history, and none OF whom
would seem to be in any way con-
nected with the valentines OF today.
However, it is always possible TO
reconcile the two or three, and there
is sufficient evidence to show that st.
Valentine, bishop OF Rome, who died
in 27s A. D.. was born on the 14th Of
February, and he is so set down in
the Roman and Anglican calendars.
He was a martyr to his faith, and
when cast into prison by his enemies
he cured his keepers daughter OF
blindness. for which miracle he was
beaten with clubs and then beheaded.
and his remains repose in the Church
st. Praxades, at Rome. while gate
now known as the Porto Popolo was
formerly called by the name OF st.
Valentine, or Porto Valentino.
Another Valentine. also a Bishop,
claims a share in the day. and his
claim TO saintship rests upon the cure
OF the son OF Grafton, the Rhetorician.
His death was caused by choking on

ing or administered by his enemies

ory In South Tyrol. at Meran, where
he is supposed TO have preached

In the legend he appears as a beauti-

what is now known as Tyrol, he en-
