about 60 of them strangely bright and lovely
memento of that dreary sojourn in the Tower Of
London. The following is typical Of his valentine
verses:
wilt thou be mine? Dear love, reply
Sweetly consent or else deny;
Whisper softly, none shall know
Wilt thou be mine, love- aye or nor
Spite of fortune we may be
Happy by one word from thee;
Life fees swiftly, Ere 1t go
wilt thou be mine, love; aye no?
1t was an ancient idea cherished through many
generations that ST. Valentines day was the day of
mating for birds as well as for men and women
Herrick refers TO this charming fancy In this
lovely valentine verse:
Oft have heard both youths and virgins say
Birds chose their mates and couples, too, this day.
But by their flight never can divine
When shall couple with my valentine
Lovers less talented who found rhyming on
their own account exceedingly difficult were obliged
to resort TO books which were regularly published
with view to supplying valentine verses and
replies appropriate to all stations in life and all
trades. These verses, published in small volumes.
with highly colored frontispeces were not usually
of the loftiest order.
Reply valentines were very much the fashion for
a time, as were those in which there was play of
words upon some particular calling A valentine
for butcher and his sweetheart included among
those supplied in little book published in Lon
don, was as follows
Valentine From Butcher.
StrOng4as an OK my love for thee, l.
Thou tender bit of veal;
Though small thine eyes as pigs they see
Too well my love to steal.
This hast thou done, and something more
Deprived me of my sleep;
Oh then. be kind nor shut the door
Against the hapless sheep!
To this the beauteOus maid Of the butchers
fancy replied:
Good Mr.. Butcher must own, although am no
gluttOn,
I'm rather partial to the taste of beef, pork. veal
and mutton;
I've half mind to grant your suit but one thing
makes me falter;
fear, when tied, you'd take straight to Smith
field in a halter
In some instances lovers also chose ST. Valen-
tines day as an occasion which to reprOve their
sweethearts and cut them off from further COM
munication, as shown in the following verse:

The Buck Brand Overalls plant in
this city is starting up this week
with a lively and increasing demand
for the product. II is safe to say that
it cannot supply the demand for this
useful garment now worn alike by
both sexes. A Cleveland paper says
it is a garment of service, OF COM
fort, of freedom from social restric-
tons, the symbol of active physical la
Dor, the garb of the back yard gar
dener, the accepted uniform Of the
soldier of honest toll. Overalls are
convenient, handy, sensible and no
more unattractive than many Of the
garments faringly displayed in the
fashion plates.
Just now they become particularly
interesting as the recognized garment
worn by workers of both sexes. One
of the great railways of the country,
the Baltimore & Ohio, has introduced
women workers into its eastern shops.
All of them are attired in overalls. A
Cleveland man walked into a busy
machine shop not far away and asked
for the foreman. He was promptly
referred to the assistant foreman, who
was at bench nearby. He approach
ed this overall person and found him
self greeting a snudgy-faced keen
eyed young woman. He expressed
his surprise and the assistant told him
there were a half dozen women work.
ing in the same room and asked him
to point them out. He couldn't.
No doubt the increased use of the
garment will be changed to present
disturbed conditions, the common ex-
PLANTATION for all the later innovations.
Whether this be true or not--and it IS
a question of little moment-overalls
in their special field of usefulness are
serviceable and sensible, and not
nearly as revolutionary as some wor-
ried people may think. One OF the
many benefits which may come out
of the horrors of war may be numer-
GUS sane innovations in the styles of
both food and clothing. Let's beg n
boosting Hopkinsville as the home OF
the best overalls made.

The FutIllty of Maxims.

Allipeople Of broad, strong sense
have an instructive repugnance to the
men of msxims; because such people
early discern that the mysterious COM
plexity of cur life is not to be en-
braced by maxims, and that to lace
ourselves up in formulas of thet sort
is to repress all the divine prompdngs
and inspirations that spring from
growing insight and sympathy. And
the man of maxims is the popular rep
resentative of the minds that are guild
ed In their moral judgment solely by
general rules, thinking that these VIII
head them to justice by a ready-made
patent method, without the trouble OF
exerting patience, discrimination. Inn

themselves whether they have the In

estimate of temptation, or from life
