ST. VALEMINE’S DAY.
• r
THE POST OFICE GLUTTED WITH
THEM.
The History of the Day.
To day is St. Valentine’s Day, and the
Indications are that It will be more gen
erallyobserved than we thought It would
several days ago. Last evening
! the post office was being filled with
' them, and this morning there
. will be a perfect deluge of them.
ST. VALENTINE'S DAY,
the 14th of February, is, or more correctly
was, celebrated in England, S otland, and
in different parts of the European conti
nent, particularly Lorraine and Maine in
France by a very peculiar and amusing
custom. On the eve of St. Valentine, a
unmber of young folks, maids and bach
elors, would assemble together, and in
scribe upon little billets the names of an
equal number of maids and batchelors of
their acquaintance, throw the whole Into a
receptacle of sort, and then draw them
lottery-wise—care, of course, being taken
that each should draw one of the opposite
sex. The person thus drawn became
one's valentine. Os course, besides having
got a valentine for ones self one became,
by the universality of the practice, some
other person's valentine; but ae Mlsson,
a learned traveller In the early part of last
century, remarked, “the man stuck faster
to the valentine that had fall
en to him, than to her to
whom he had fallen.” These Im
aginary engagements, as may bo readily
supposed, often led to real ones; because
one necessary consequence of them was,
that for a whole year, a bachelor remain
ed bound to the service of his valentine,
somewhat after the fashion of a medieval
knight of romance to) his lady love. At
one period it was customary for both
sexes to make eachlother presents,but lat
terly the obligation seems to have been
' restricted to yourigfmen. During the 15th
century this amusement was very popu
lar among the upper classes and at Euro
pean court.
For sometime back the festival—at least
In England and Scotland—has ceased to
possess the graceful symbolic meaning
It used to have, and has become
a considerable nuisance. The ap
proach ot the day is now heralded
ny the appearance in booksellers’
windows of vast numbers of missives
calculated for use on this occasion, each
generally consisting of a general select of
post-paper, on the first page of which is
seen some ridiculous colored carle itlue of
the male or female figures, with a few
burlesque verses below. More rarely, the
print Is of a sentimental kind, such as a
view of Hymen’s altar, with a pair under
going lulatlatlon into wedded happiness
before It, while Cupid Hutters above, and
hearts transfixed with 'his darts decorate
the corners.
The connection of the custom with St.
Valentine Is purely accidental. In the le
gends of the different saints of that name
recorded in the Octa Sanclorium, no trace
of the practice peculiar to the 14th ol
February is found. Il has been suggest
ed by Mr. Douce ln,<*his •‘illustrations of
Shakepeare that the custom may have de
scended to us from the ancient Romans,
who, during the ••Loupercalla," celebra
ted In the month of February, were wont
among other thing “to put the names ot
young women into a box, from which they
were drawn by the men ae chance direct
ed;" and that the Christian clergy, finding
it difficult or Impossible to extirpate this
pagan practice, gave it at least a relig
ious aspect, by substituting the names of
saints; and it is certainly a
usage more or less widely ex
tended in the Roman Catholic church to
select, either on St. Valentines Day or
some other, a p rtrou saint Jor the year,
who is termed ga valentine., But it is far
more probable that the custom of choos
ing valentines fls a relic of that nature
religion which was undoubtedly the primi
tive form of religion lu north-western
Europe as elsewhere;land that it sprung
from a reeognatlon of the peculiarity ot
the season. Hence lu Bailey's dictionary
the following explanation is given: "About
this time of the year, the birds choose
thier mates, and probably thence came
the custom of the young men and middens
choosing ; valentines tor J special loving
tilends ou that day.”

People who couldn’t or wouldn’t raise
money enough to buy Christmas and New
Year’s presents will stuff the letter boxes
full of valentines, and try and get even
that way Some of these valentine ship
pers will consign artistic and emblematic
goods tn the interest of what is known as
the master passion, love, while others will
content themselves with those ex iggera
ted and Iraudulent comic outs illustrative
of scenes in high Ute. All trades and pro
fessions will be represented. The motto of
these valentine artists appears to be “Let
no guilty man escape.” Doctors lawyers,
o'ergymen,base-bdilate, aotore, milliners,
dre.-6-makere, boarding-house keepers,
printers, soip-bollere, butchers, bakers
and candlestick makers will all have a
benefit. lu olden times, the legendary
symbolism of valentines was sometning
about love and billing and cooing. But ot
lite there appears to have been consider
able blackguardism mixed up with It-
The once amorous valentine has degener
ated Into a mild species of libel. Rev. De-
Witt Talmage, of Brooklyn, only last
week commenced suit in one of the courts
against a theatrical troupe which bung
show bills on the outer wall which
bore a most striking resemblance
to the eccentric Brooklyn pastor'
That was his valentine. The Imitation
wa-tto close too suit Mr. Talmage, and he
kicked with such force and unc i >n the
actor in the “Sorcerer” who had intended
to make up in imitation of the show bl.ls
dare not do it, and the fun was knocked
out in one little round by the preacher.
We have otten wondered what becomes
of all the old seeond-hand comic valen
tines. Some people wonder where all the
pins go to. We want to know what be
comes of the comic valentines. We see
millions of them In the stores, and know
that millions of them are sold. But few
people seem to have any on hand the day
following St. Valentine’s. I: they do they
do not seem Inclined to want to show
up. Mebbe they think It Is a disgrace to
get a comic valentine.

Commercial Chronicle*.
I. And It came to p ies that a twelve
mouths had gone by, and 10, the begin
ning of the year had come, and the deal
er, John, whose surname was Brown, the
merchauf, sat In the even in bls < ffiee.
11. And Brown ep ike unto himself, say
ing, “Verily, the year hath gone by, and
now will I gird mys'-lf up and lock closely
into my books that I may see how much
of lucre I have acquired unto myself, for
is It not wiltien, “He who loukeet
not closely into his books, the saur: is a
hair plu who shall verily ba busted up.”
111. And John whose surname was
Brown, the merchant, did even as tiia
tongue had given speech unto, awl was
well pleased.
IV. For 10, for when his books were
posted he found that he had gained unto
himself many houses and lands and
broad pieces of silver, and he said It was
well,
V. And he brought forth flue wine from
olden bottles and did treat himself and
did eat the fat of the land for he was well
pleased.
VI. And when he had eaten and drank
his till, again he communed with hlmselt
and said: “Verily, on this n< Xt year must
I make more. Then call I clothe myself
and my family In purple and line linen,
and drink dally of tine wines and least
myself on fatted lambs.”
VII. Then marveled he much how he
could do this.
VIII. And after he had communed with
himself, he did tan himself on the fore
head and say : "Ab, um, verily I have it.
I must even cut down the ixpense ac
count.
IV. “Fonr traveling men have I on
road, awl many broad pieces do I pay
them.
X, “Yea. verily, and their expanses ac
counts are high and all this must I pay,
even out of mine own purse.
XI, “Truly do they sell many goods,yet,
verily d > I believe that I could sell unto
all my old customers if I let thee trav
elers go.
XII, "I will write unto each of ray cue
touiers: ‘No man on lhe road, No trav
eling expenses, therefore can I truly sell
the goods down lower than before.’
XII "Yea, this will I write unto them
but, veiily, will I charge them the same
oi l prices, and all the expense account
and falarles will I even ke»[> unto myself
for mine own and I will wai fat."
XIV. And he did laugh within himself
and say: ‘Ho, this is good, verily, this Is
a soft snap.’
XV. And when night had come, he did
tell his wife even us be hud thought ot
doing, but she gave not ear to his speech,
but did say:
XVI. “Verily, Brown, thou art a fool.
The whole ot thy trade will leave thee
and don’t you forget it."
XVII. But he did hoot at her and did
siy: “What knowest thou? Are thou not
a woman? Verily, thou k lowest naught
of buslnhes else wouldest thou not be
tai 11 v ot speech.”
XVIIL And she did tur n h r back In an
ger and did say: “Ii t hou thickest I know
not aught, wiv refore boldest thou com -
sei with me. Go to, 'Tend to thine own
business and when thou art verily
busted up, then wilt thou remember all
I have said unto thee.”
XIX. And when the n orrow had come
he <lll call bls traveling men together and
did say unto I hem :
XX. "This year will have no need ot
thee. This year will have no men on lhe
road for verily times are hard and I can
ill i fiord thy salat les and < xpenses. Ihe
trade that thou badst will cleave unto me
even ae a brother.
XXL "Verily, the woods are full ol
drummers and I am going to have a new
deal. Therefore go thy ways, after that
the bock keep *r hath paid thee thy sala
ries for I will have no more ot thee."
XXII. Then did the tourists marv I
much at these things and did say one to
another, “veiily, the old codger is getting
stingy, but just see him run his old she
bang without any traveling men. He
will run it in the ground and don’t forget
it.
XXIII. "What trade had he that we
brought not in? His trade don’t even
know him. They buy of us, b cause they
know us and know we will see that they
are treated squarely, no matter what
house we are with.”
XXIV. And they went their ways, and
before the morn, verily, were they all
with other h< uses in the same line.
XXV. And the days came and went and
verily Brown did wonder much whither
his trade had departed. Circulars sent tie
out but naught in orders did return.
XXVI. And when the country merchant
did come to town he would dr< p into
Brown's and say, "Where is thy servant
Smith that thou didet have on the road. I
know him, but I know thee not.”
XXVII. And verily would he hunt Smith
up, saying: "In the past didst thou treat
me square, and still will I trust thee,
therefore show me thy goods, I will pur
chase of thee.”
XXVIII. And in the morning and the
evening did all theses line things happen,
yea, for the sp ice of e x months.
XXIX. And Brown did morn and rend
his locks, but it availed him not, and with
morning and lamentations did he beat hie
breast and implore his druaimsrs to come
again within his house and labor for him.
XXX But they said: “Can'tdo It Brown
we are all fixed for this year."
XXXI. And before the year had passed
by, lula new salesman was at Brown’s
store one day. A:d great pl es of goods
did he sell in one week, yea, even more
than the drummers could have sold in
many months.
XXXII. And 1 ! a red fl >g did hang at
Brown's door.
XXXIII. And verily the new salesman

Last Tuesday evening at Temperance
Hall, Box Spring district, there was an
unfortunate difficulty between the three
Jones boys, who live in thatdls rlct, on
the one hand and Mr. W. O. Hinton. Had
not prompt Interference been made it
would have been a serious matter. The
knife was used to some ex ent. The origin
and exact nature of the difficulty we have
not been able to learn.
Mr. John Pye, one of the beet farmers in
Talbot county, a man who Ilves at home
and of whom It la an honor to speak, kill
ed this season sixteen hogs and put up
from them in solid meat three thousand
and nine hundred pounds. There la no
humbug or rxiggeration about this; It Is
a solid fact. Mr. Pye has also recently
rived 7,000 boards from one tree on his
place. For meat and boards who can beat
It?
