CUPiD'S ESPECIAL DAY
IS1HAT0 OF GOOD ST.
valentine.

~ USTOM, more potent than any
other authority known to. man,
" has decreed that on st. valen-
tines day those of opposite sex
shall exchange missives and epistles,
either comic or Sentimental, In which
the foibles of the receiver or the love
Of the sender are set forth in prose,
in verse and in emblematic picture.
Now there is no custom without
reason but the reason for this can
not be found in the life of the good
saint who is made to indorse this GUS
tom with his name
HE wrote no love song!
mo one rises to accuse him of cast
ing sleeps eyes on any Roman
maiden. He was a bishop or pope of
Rome who stood steadfast to the
faith during the Claudian persecu-
tions, and for that faith was cast into
Jail. where he cured his keepers
daughter of blindness. Honi soft qui
NAL pense! 1t is the pleasure of
Cupid, blind himself, to bring upon
his votaries a similar blindness, not to
cure it.
"Nor was there anything comic or
sentimental in the fate of St valen-
tine when the miracle was made
known to the authorities. They first
beat him with clubs and then be-
headed him. What was left of him is
preserved in the Church of st,
Praxedes at Rome. where a gate. now
known as the Porta del Popolo, was
formerly named in his honor Porta
valentini. or Saint Valentines gate, .
says William 8. Walsh in his "Curiosi-
ties of Popular Customs"
Bailey's English Dictionary Q72D,
under the subject of Valentines, says:
About this time Of the year-Febru-
ary-the birds choose their mates, and
probably thence came the custom of
the young men and maidens choosing
valentines for special loving friends
on that day"
Francis Douce uSOO. discussing
the same subject, says: at was Gus
tomary to put the names OF young
women into a box, from which they
were drawn by the men as chance di-
rected and the Christian clergy, find
ing it difficult or impossible to ex-
tirpate, the pagan practice, gave 1t at
least a religious aspect by substitut-
ing the names of particular saints for
those of the women"
''But see how strong is the old
Adam in the hearts of the unregen-
erate,'' comments Mr.. Walsh. WAN
ton youth was not satisfied to imi-
tate these holy fathers and ballot for

Butler) sthe church. in the person of
St. Francis de Sales, once more
stepped in to sanctify the rites of st.
Valentines day. st. Francis severely
| forbade the custom of valentines or
| giving boys in writing the name of
girls to be admired and attended on
by them, and to abolish it he changed
it into giving billets with the names
of certain saints for them to honor
and initiate in a particular manner
but In the end the boys and the
girls triumphed over the saint. Nay,
the girls triumphed also over the
boys, wrestling rom them their ex-
elusive privilege of choosing mates.
Last year an irate old maid who
had been the recipient of comic
| valentine which had stung her to the
quick repaired TO the factory, where
/ it was made. with a rawhide and a
| limb of the law. She demanded the
name of the person who had sent her
the Objectionable missive. In vain
she was assured that the factory was
the last place in the world to learn
the name of the sender. When told
that the factory sold comics by the
hundred gross to jobbers who, in turn,
sold to wholesalers. and then supplied
the retailer dealer who vended to in
dividual customers, she swore round
ly.
Many clever young people in society
with artistic and literary ability write,
paint and otherwise decorate the val
entines they send to favored ones. In
some instances a part Of the decora-
tion consists of jewels, diamonds,
pearls or other gems. and the in
ttrinsic value of tne bad5ie is thus en-

Valentine parties are still in popu-
lar favor, and those who have not
the ability to write love-sonnets or
design sentimental valentines fire.
quently go to artist friends, and even
to professional artists, and have pri-
vatel valentines made. At these par
ties each person exchanges valen-
tines. French imported valentines run
as high as 5000 and $500, according
to the richness of the lace and other
trimmings, but these expensive mis-
sives are rarely kept in stock.
