GOOD Morrow To You.
My Valentine!"

Nj ANY curious old charms are said
40 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 a 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 IA. 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 I 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
find,
Afleld I went. amid he morning dew,
To milk my kline (for so should house
wives do).
Thee first 1 spied, and the first swain
we see.
In spite of fortune. shall our true love
be-"
Some of US wish nat a quaint old
custom practiced in tie time of Pepys
was still prevalent-the rule that a
man must give a present to the first
woman he saw on February IA. Pepys,
gay old rascal that ne was, much be-
walled himself thai his own tribute
had to be offered 90 his wife-a pro-
ceeding he considered very dull, when
there were plenty Of pretty young
girls at the light-hearted court of
II.
Old people still remember the time
when valentines were as popular as
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
Is no longer much connected
with these bright cards.
Nowadays Shakespeare's greeting -
Good morrow. tits 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 a
old custom.
Christianity brought the custom of
placing each feast day under the
patronage of saint, and so st. VAL
