Near this point is a eate, which once pasoed oy the name ol the Porta drl Vvpoto, but which, in other days, wat known 8 the Form Vaien'ini. Veuiiw, KroN, and Autero. The cumoiub, however, connected with this day la modern times hiv!i no rel'i'.ion clt Uor to the life or death ot St. Valeutme. They haJ th At orlpin first in a dooire to express aUec .ion by the sending cf a pretty token; thou in a desire to expiess contempt or "poke fun" by the sending of a ludicrous token. As Vsntis, the Goddcs of Love, Cupid (or Eros), the God of Love, and Eros' brother, Auteros, hold cepo cialeway over the affection, let us gather the lacts of thctr mythological hiMory. Many ac counts are given concerning tho Brat of this trio. The one most generally received repre sents her as hnvina sprung from the froth of lUo sea, like a symmetrical bunt; Irom a huero beer bairel. She was the goddess ol beuuty, the mother of love, the queen of laughter, the mis tress of the graces and pkusurej, eic. feho was numerously married. Shy wore, a natty girdle which had the power of exciting love, tier contest with Pallas and Juno tor the golden apple of Discord is well knowD. Mr. Paris awarded her the apple, for which favor be rccelcd the hand of the fairest woman on earth. fhe hai a sou by tho cod of war old Mars. This son's name a t'ros or Cupid. He was a worthy chip of the old block, lor he fought many battles among hearts, and waa cot more careful of those tender thinsrs than his mother. Some people believe him to have been a chubby little boy, who flew ubotit on wings, and curried a bow and quiver. Owing to the warmth of the climate where he sprouted, he couldn't endure any more clothing than a tig leaf. He was able to rutllo the coats of wild beasts without their bitirg bim; and ho had a brother whose name was Atiteros, who wus very necessary to hia health uurt visor. Why ? Because the little lellow could urow neither In strength nor stature unless said Anteros was constantly by hia side. This Antoios was not a deity who presided over the opposite of love, as his name would imply, but wus a iind-heartcd cbap who presiJcd over mutual love and mutual tend ernes. From the lact that he had the do war to cause eu increase in the strength of Cupid, it might be interred that a return of paslou gives vluor to love. Some folks believe that it does. Perhaps! The pair of them, Cunld and Anteros. arc often repre sented la old pictures as striving to seize a o arofiiTs rvrcrcomes ov K'UJnn. Valentin ot Old. The oricla of the modern custom of seudiuz valentines is very ancient, mid involved in considerable obscurity. The only rational theory that has been advanced concerning it, is that it is a continuation ot ino ii'jman ceremonies in honor otPau and Juno, which were celeurat celebrated I in tbe month of February, under the title of Lwperoalia. One of the several customs by -which this festival was distinguished was the I j . . " - j n i niintnn' or tur ti ampa or vnnnir wnni-u in n imit. as chance directed. To suck practices, how ever, the early Christian pastors were opposed, because they eavored too strongly ot the old Idolatry. Knowing it to bo quite impossible to eradicate tne custom at ouce, mey ctiaea fvored to impart to it an orthodox character, - by substituting for the names of maidens the names of tbe saints. ' Tbe drawing was fixed upon the llth of . (February which happened to bs 81. Valentine's - Day because It was tbe middle of the mouth which had been devoted to the heathenish Lupercalia. Tbe saint? did not long remain in favor, however, their places soon being usurped by the maidens whom they had displaced; aud this feature of the old Roman rites once re stored, tbe transition to the next step was easy and natuial. The practice of tbo choosing ' mates became reciprocal, as Ur as the two I sexes wete concerned, all who wers thus chosen .being termed valentines from the day on which 'the ceiemony took place. L In the time of Charles II, it seems th.t the names of married persons, as well as those of c toe unmarried, were piucea in the wheel of , fortui.e on St. Valentine s Day. It was general In those day, for the person drawn as a valentine to make tne person draw ing bim or her a handsome present. This was done to ' relieve" the donors of the obligations inder which they were placed by bilag drawn ss valentines, Miss Stuart, a celebrated belle. wbo afterwards became the Duchess of Rich mond, drew as her valentine, in 107, Lord Monrlpville. and the latter VIA olarl In rpl.ene Vilnikplf bv nrcsenUn; her with a. rim- pna finer Z300. On oneoccaiion the same fortunate Wly relieved the Duke of York from the decree ot t fate on lecc-ivlng irom n m a jewel valued at 800. In olden times tho commcu people bel'.eved that on tt. Valentine's Day the birds were ac customed to select their ma'c;; undowinsrto tbe btratce Influence wtich pervaded the air, 11 was maintained that a youn person on walking tbroad would oret encounter toe one with whom lis or her lot was to be cast tor Hi . That tbe observance of St. Valentine's Day liof very auclent origin is pod by the fact that hoth ShakesDeare and Chaucer allude to it. . as well as tbe poet Lydtta'.e, who died iu 1440. Deke Cbuiles of Orleans, who whs captured bv the Knelish on the field of Adncourt, in 1415, was the earliest known ctxrooter of those amorous stanzas for whlci. c'. V.lcuunes I'ay has been dbtinguHhed. Taleutlnea ftaIy Since the times when each return ot 8U Valcnt'.Le's Dav was signalized by the giving aaa reception ol costly frequently very cosuy missives in tbe form of remembrance tokens. the woild has changed and the customs attend- ingthe celebration ot St. Valentine's Dav hive likewise changed. Now, we never even bVarof a valentine worth more tbao $100, sometimes ; of a tew worth $10, more often of 3 and ,1 ones, but generally of 10 cent, b cent and penny one. In lact, penny ones are all tho go. People buy them because they cot little or nothing, like lunch from 10 to 12. In lurer her saloons. fo one $& valentine, ten thousand 1-cent ones ire sold, but some of tbe more costly ones are eallj pretty. Nicely tinted, perfumed, and tellcaUly chiselled out, scolloped, or perforated Ud angels, they at least cannot fail to attract an admiring eye. They are alwavs inscribed somewhere with a motto: "aemember roe," "true love," "deep aft'ecUon," 'sweetheart," "I'm dying for thee" and ottu'r tnubby specimens of the kind. It's a good as a irlMia of warm water to read a dozen of i.lm vou're sure to have a "casting nn of accounu."

Of course a description o these comic rprespn tationa wonld be in povlblo, but we anpend a lew of the rhymes taken Irom several il the most humorous which biive been Issued for the approaching bt. Valcttlno'a Day: First we have the "Corner Loafer": "Loafing around the corner, polsoulng the ulr, And insulting ladies with your rowdy stare; Wetter seek your garret, hide away your head, Better go and honestly earn your daily bread, hum won't save you always; some time 'twill be known, That your haunt, the corner, will bn. all alone." Then tho "Liletary Chambermaid": "TIs nice to have a elrl around. Where yellow-covered books abound ; Tis nlee for an inquiring niin J, But Low for the dusty room ? Bpelliuu out all the books you nod. We mlf-B the use of your broom !" Then the "Foul-mouthed, Gossiping Wo.nan:' "If there's a nuisance in the land One that's most difficult to stand, A cutsc on e .rth a blast from well ! 'Tis the vile totcue no shame can quell, Ot her whose foul mouth Is a bane o dire, her very praise will stain !" Then the ' Eavesdropper:'' "To anything menu you would descend, If jou could thereby harm a friend; Listening at keyholes Is your favorite game, HcarlDg an evil sentcuco In a sinale name, Nature made mistake, you should have been a row, They nlso Iced on caTrlon, you know." From the "Old Fop:" 'tupid old numbskull; yea, thpre you sit. Thinking jour.ell tho first of be .tux; In pudeneb passes with jou for wit. And your sense lies in your clothe?." Then the '"Lady with the Grecian Bend:"--Tiav, what's the matter,' said a friend to me, With that young woman that I 6ee?' I stopped and looked, and calmly said, "lhe wits have surely Ictt her head; But where they're gone there's no telliup-. I'nless you judge by that larse swelling." Then the "Fancy Billiard Play :" "With artis'ic position and fijurc ie growl, You think no plaier beloro you can stand; Yju talk of jour games and brag of your matches, You sleep on (he tib'e, but icly on your scratches; Could you but see yourself nrtisbt. A rerfest flat would be the slyht.'" Then "A Mis. Caudle:" 'Poor Mr. Cuudle has poue to his club A club walla lor Caudle at home: How can hesKcTi a dear creature snub." How wish from her arms o'er to ro.im?" Then "the Tailor": " 'It takes nine tailors to make a mat),' " I have beard that this was true; But the worft yet seen since time began Would be one made up of niue like you !

SEAWEED TONIC, and MANDRAKE PILLS WILL CURK CONGUMPTION, LIVER COMPLAINT, AND DY8PCP8IA, If taken accorJtt.g to the tlfrcclions. They are all thiee to be taken at tbe same time. They cleanse tbe stomach, rt lax the liver, and put It to work; then the appetite becomes eoodj the food digests and makes good blood; the paMcnt bfgins to prow iu flesh; the diseased matter r'icns in tho lungs, and the patient onteros the dbcasc and pots well. This is the only way to cure Consumption. To these three medicines Dr. J. II. SCHKNCK of Philadelphia, owes his UNRIVALLEO SUCCESS In tho treatment ol I'uluioiiHry Conumptiou. The Pulmonic Sjrup ripens the morbid ma'.tcr in the lungs, nature throws it off by an easy erpectorntion, for when the phlcRtn or matter la ripe, a slight cough will throw it off, aud the patient has rest, and the lungs begin to heal. To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Maudrakc Tills must be freely ued to cleanse tho stomach and liver, so tbat the Pulmonic Wjrup and food Will II1HKO pood blood. SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS Act tipcn the liver, removing all obstructions; relax the due's of the ghll bladder, the bile starts finely, and tbe liver is soon relieved; the stools will show whtt the pills can do; nothing has cvtr bteu invented except c:tloiuel (a deadly toison, which is very duugeious to u?c uulcs with gtcat cute) thitt will unlock tbe trail blad der and ststt the sccmion of the liver like Schtnck's Jltiiidruke Pill-. Liver Coniplninl in one of the most L'roml. unit Causes or Consumption. SCHENCK'S SEAWEED TONIC Is a gentle stimu.avit and alterative, and the alkali in the teawrcd, which this prtparatiou is made of, ast-iita the stomach to thro out the ganlc iuicc to dissolve the food with tha Pol- Oionic Siup, ti ud it is made into fjood blood without kruieutiitioii or souritii: the stomaeh THE GREAT REASON Why physicians do n3t cure Consumption io, they try to do too much: they alve medicine to ftop the cough, to stop chills, to stop night sweats, hectic lever, an I by so doinsr they derange thi whole airestive power-, locking- up the t ccrctious, and eventually the p iticiit siuks and dies. Dr. SCIIESCK, in his treatment, does not try to stop a cough, uight sweats, chills, or fever. Kciuoe the cause, and they will all stop ot their own accord. No one can be cured ot Consump tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh, (.'an ker, Ulcerated Throat, uulcss the liver and stomach are mude healthy. If a person has cousump'ion, of course the lungs aie in some way disea-:e l. either tuber tic?, abscesses, bronclical inita'ion, plueral adhesion, or the lunzs are a mats of iniUtini t tlon and fact decaying. Iu such cases what must be done? It is no', only the luus that are wasting, out it is me wmoic noay. ino stomach and liver hive lot their power to mske blood out of fo.id. No the only chauco is to take Dr. SCIIKNCK'S three medicines, which will ri'iu? up a torn to the stomach, the patient will want food, It will digest easily ttiul make good blood; then the patient begins to gain In rloti, and as soou as the bxly biglns io crow, tbe lungs commence to henl up, aud the patient pets n dy and well. This is the only way to cure Consumption. WHEN THEKE IS SO LU.XU DISEASE, And only Liet Complaint and IJypr.psta, &t hunk's StMUYi-.il Tonic and Mandrake J'tU are stijb'cini', without the Ptl. atonic Htrup. Take the Man drake Pills frv'hj in all lifiutu cates, a they are PERFECTLY HARMLESS. lr. feCHENCK, who hs enjoyed uriinter- rupt'd beaun, was wa'tea away to a mero -kttetoo, m the very li-l stage of Pulmonary tonsil uiption, lib physicians havlug prouounced bin cae bopeleis, hnd abuudoncd him lo bis fate.
