z" Good Morrow To You,
My Valentine!"

Mt ANY curious old charms are said
Ava to be potent on ST, Valentine S
eve-all, like most charms ever invent
ed, connected with the procuring of
husbands. Even before surplus woman
dawned on the scene, this seems to
have been subject of much anxiety.
Five bay leaves, pinned respectively
to the four corners and the center of
the pillow, are said to bring certain
dreams of the future partner, if the
sleeper has gone to bed without eating
or speaking.
Another infallible spell was to write
the names of admirers on separate
pieces Of paper, enclose them in clay
balls and throw them into water. The
one which came to the surface first
contained the name of the fated
spouse.
1t is a sign Of great good luck if the
swain you favor should be the first
man seen on February If. The mod
ern girl who does not pin her faith
entirely to signs and omenS, can al
ways practice the ruse of a shrewd
maiden Of long ago, who, knowing
where her heart had gone 'lay a-bed
and shut my eyes all the morning till
he came, for 1 would not have seen
another man before him for all the
world"
She was far-seeing and lucky. But
if she had set eyes first on the wrong
man, she would have welded him, so
a poet tells u.s.
Last Valentine the day when birds of
kind
Their paramours with mutual chirpings
Aield I went amid the morning dew,
To milk my kline (for so should house
wives do)
Thee first I spied, and the first swain
we see,
In spite of fortune shall our true love
Some of us wish that quaint old
custom practiced in the time of Pepys
was still prevalent-the rule that
man must give a present to the first
woman he saw on February IA. Pepys,
gay old rascal that he was, much be-
walled himself that his own tribute

ceeding he considered very dull when
there were plenty of pretty young
girls at the light-hearted court of
Charles II.
Old people still remember the time
when valentines were as popular as
Christmas cards. and the postman
groaned under his load on the morning
of the 14th. This is still the case in
the United States, but the idea of
courtship is no longer much connected
with these bright cards
Nowadays Shakespeare's greeting -
Good morrow. it's St Valentines day,
All the morning betime,
And I a maid at your window
To be your valentine"
simply reminds us of the passing of
delightful old custom.
Christianity brought the custom of
placing each feast day under the
patronage of saint, and so ST. Val |
entlne, who never married himself, be- |
came the patron saint of lovers.-The

"GRACIoUs goodness" said Cupid

st. Valentines dayl"
And while Cupid is busy getting
ready for his annual archery program
there are plenty of others who are pre-
pairing to receive him, terrifying them
selves against his invasion or prepar.
ing fitting welcome. as the case
may be.
Naturally, nobody wants to take a
chance with this skillful archer without
plenty of others present to help defect
his flying arrows, so there will be
parties, parties, and then more parties
First, Valentine party calls for a
clever form of invitation. A verse
original if possible-could set forth
the wish of the hostess in an appropri-
ate jingle, running something like this
l beg to indite that gay little sprite.
VIII stop at my home on st. Valen-
tines night:
Can you meet him at eight, on this
special date,
I'm expecting you over SO please don't
be late.
Another invitation might read:
On Saint Valentines Day
VIII you come to my party7
III see that you have
welcome right hearty.
The verse can be written on dainty
Valentine postcards, or correspondence
cards ornamented with Cupids and ar
rows or with red heart seals.
Another verse may invite the guest
in this wise:
The Sign of-theH Heart is pleased to
invite
Your presence at eight on Saint valen-
tines Night;
Hearts that are brave and loving and
true
Will be ready and waiting to welcome
The password is Love, which alone has
the power
To gain you admittance to Cupids
bower.
Note paper decorated with Valentine
seals could be used for this form of in
vitation. For decoration to conform
to the first line of the verse, an i'm
mense red heart, hung against the
glass of the front door would be ap-
propriate
Old-fashioned valentines, with lace
paper and sentimental verses, make ap-
propriate invitations. So do the old
comics.
The valentine party rarely takes the
form of masquerade, but the hostess
usually plans caps and favors for the
guests, to give festive air to the
event.
Almost any crude cap of crepe paper |
can be made highly decorative by add
ing long tassels or fringe at either side.
Heavy necklaces of cardboard with
a ruff1e of red crepe paper hung about
the neck on a ribbon are effective and |
easily made.
The jazz bracelet is a novelty CON
sisting of ribbon to be worn about
the wrist, with long red and white
crepe paper streamers.

Seward, who had for years toiled to
subordinate Lincoln, finally wrote to
his wife: Executive skill and vigor
are rare qualities. The President is
the best of u.s."
On July 80, 1863, Lincoln issued a
public letter, designed especially for
the soldiers and sympathizers of the
Confederacy:
1t is the duty of every govern
ment to give protection to its eiti-
Zens and especially those who are
organized as soldiers in the public
service. 1t Is, therefore, ordered
that for every soldier of the United
States killed in violation of the
laws of war, rebel soldier shall
be executed; and for every one en-
shaved or sold into slavery, rebel
soldier shall be placed at hard
labor on the public works"

1 look upon this order as the least
representative sentence in Lincoln's
entire life story and doubtless it was
inspired by the usages of war and came
as cabinet measure.
Another message to his cabinet
shows how he guided them and con-
stantly reminded them of broad patri-
otism. 1t reads:
ut will require the utmost skill,
influence and sagacity of all of US
to save the republic. Let us for
get ourselves and join hands like
brothers to save the republic. If
we succeed there will be glory
enough for ALL"
And Stanton, who, in the early days
of the Civil war, said, Lincoln is a
fool, a low, cunning clown. The
original gorilla Du Chaillu, the nat

Lincoln was assassinated: Lincoln is

NEWS REVIEW OF

IIEEDING the firm admonitiOns OF
L the Washington government, the
Mexican rebels decided to abandon
their contemplated blockade of the
port of TampicO, and also they began
the removal of the floating mines they
had placed In the Vera Cruz, Frontera
and Puerta Mexico harbors. The
revolutionists claim the occupation Of
numerous towns, but in the main OPP
erations 1t seems the federal forces
are scoring successes. They have so
far prevented the capture of the oil
fields and they are reported to be adj
vancing steadily on Guadalajara,
whose occupation is expected soon. In
an address in New York Secretary of
State Hughes defended the admins
tration's policy in the matter of the
rebellion, declaring it to be
"the greatest contribution directly
within our power, and in accord with
our established traditions and mani
fest interest, to the cause of world
peace"
