President Cleveland drew his mes

which is ready for such assaults, fer
he well knew who he wanted to reach,

ST. VALENTINES HAY.
A Happy Day For the Loved aad Ihe
Lover--How Valentines are Made.
Today is St. Valentines Day, and
that beautiful custom of sending
jour loved one some token of yont
regard will be remembered. The
happy school children lnva been
wild with impatience for the day to
arrive, aud the usual stores are fuirly
aliVs with pictures of doves nud an
gels and other symbols of love and
virtue. Tho poor postmaster h *s no
rest, though, and be fears the day as
a pestilence.
The skill and labor required in
getting ready for market all those
missives, which come under the gsn
end head of valenfints, i6 far greater
than the majority of people imagine.
There are five or six largo establish
ments in the United States whose
sole business it is to prepare Christ
mas. New Year's, Easter and Valen
tine day cards, and they number
among tb*ir paid list some 10,000
persons, ranging from the packers,
etc., up to artists who desigD the of
ton very beautiful pictures which
adorn the cards.
Tho valentine of a few years ago
was a cheap and tawdry affair, usual
ly representing hearts transfixed by
enormous darts, Cupids and buxom,
red cheeked girls in impossible gar
dens, surrounded with lace paper
and bearing some doggerel which
makes frequent appeal to the muses
for the inspiration they seldom had
vouchsafed them. From those silly
and garish things to the l dutiful
and artistic productions of today the
evolution has been slow, but now a
valentine is a thing of beauty in an
artistic sense, and ia also often mount
ed and prepared iu sumptuous style.
A handsome valentiue is now paint
ed on satin, or printed from the litbo
graphic plates of these houses and
decorated with delicate silk fringe
tiny bows of ribbon, or perhaps si'
ver or gold cord and tassels. Then
thoy file laid in a box wrapped iu
soft cotton and sent to the proud re
cipient.
Aside from these lovely and urtis
tic valentines it is quite permissible
to send a pretty gift of very great
value, together with a bunch of flow
era as a valentine. The lace perfera
ted paper envelopes aud Hiring sol
ored efforts in the way of Cupids aud
such cherubs ate now bought but
by little school boys, or some poor
man whose artistic sense is scarcely
developed, to send to his Dulcinea
of the b. -einent floor, who thinks it
lovely, o! c *nr-e.
The comic valeu iae is vulgar and
low, and yet the supply of them is
sufficient proof that there is a de
rnnr.d, and *.l at there are many sent
each y t :o. 'a L* y ate sent from mo
tives of petty malice and viciimttss
as well us from an idta that it is can
niug to send a pict oiial honor to
some one as a practical joke or as a
personal insult, secure in 'heir incog
uita. Comic valentines usually are
of tho eoarsest, most < xoggerated
burlesque upon whatever they wish
to assail, amt have a verse below as
witless and vulgar as th- florid pict
tire above it.

these so called comic valentine*

Borne of c4h leading physicians have
addressed a letter to President Cleve
land in behalf of onr beloved citizen,
Rev I).. Thomas, whoso application
for chaplaincy in the army the Presi
dent has had under consideration
for several months. Knowing bis
deservings in tbis parti n ular we bav
ofteD wondered why tbis appoint
ment bad not been rnude.
F* r (he benefit of his friends in
Congress wo epitomize the following:
When Col. Springer, !o whom the
ci'.y of Griffin was surrendered, took
a look into hospital matters, he found
tb »t out friend had been allowed to
act as nurse and chaplain to tbe sick
and wounded of both armies, and at
tbe suggestion of Rev. Elder Camp
bell, the blue coats were made his
special charge. His conduct in this
matter was fully presented to Presi
dent Johnson, who at tbe request of
Secretary Welles, gave him a com
mission in the army, but which, alas,
was never approved by tbe Senate,
although the Adjutant General noti
fied him of the appointment and as
sored him that it soon would be
confirmed. In tho meantime
Gen. Pope had made Atli nta
bis herdqatrters; be bad a
vorv large sick list and as bis staff
surgeon, H. K. Smith, recognized in
the rector of St. Phillips bis former
friend and chaplain of the Army
Post at Barrancas, Flotida, who was
also chaplain of the Navy Yard at
the same time, he was ealled on to
perform the duties of Chaplain for
the garrison, and this he continued
to do for seven years under Pope,
Meade and Terry, and at his own ex
pease. This added a good deal to
his parochial wotk as there were no
street cars at that time. When Bish
op Pierce was usked if he would
again sign his application for a chap
laior . his answer was: “ I certainly
