The sympathetic neighbor asked:
"Is yoor little brother ill this morn

the most heartrending way."

Endurance.
The pilgrim fathers were undoubted
ly heroic men, facing, as they did, with
dauntless courage, fire, frost, famine
and the red menace of Indian ruthless
ness. But the pilgrim mothers were
more heroic still, for they endured also
all these things and had in addition to
stand the pilgrim fathers as well.—

1 St Valentine 1
Si 3
HA. YE you forgotten about St.
Valentine's day? It is coming,
you know. Of course you can
not really have forgotten, with
all the foolish, sentimental, happy
things cluttering up the show windows,
but you may have forgotten that St
Valentine's day is something more than
a window display and that you are a
part of it, says the Indianapolis News.
It is no good saying that you are not;
that you had nothing to do -v\4?h it in
the beginning and have nothing to do
with it now. If you have forgotten
and if you haven't a valentine stuck
away in your market basket, it is time
you were remembering.
It is time you were remembering ev
ery sweetheart you ever had and every
one you ever wished you had. It is
time you were remembering every bit
of proof you ever cherished that any
body, anybody at all, loved you. There
is no sense in being ashamed of it
Living in a world without sweet
hearts would be a dismal thing, and
you would be a dismal sort of person
if you never had one—if you haven't
one now.
St. Valentine as we know him is
very likely a sentimentalist but he is
a useful sort of person at that He
makes it very easy for you to tell
folks that you love them, and that is
a thing that has to be told somehow
some time, although nobody la sup
posed to know who is telling it
Of course, like all sentimentalists,
St Valentine is likely to make many
mistakes, and that is the reason it is
so necessary for you to do your part.
He is likely to fill one pretty girl's
room with flowers and give her more
candy than Is good for her, forgetting
all abaut the girl acrsss the street
wbe really needs a little candy. He
loves te stuff the mail bexea with val
entines for the children, forgetting
that old ladles like them toe.
He may persuade the agreeable bach
elor of comfortable years to send a
valentine to the young woman who
sits across the table from him at the
boarding house when it Is the woman.
not quite so young, to be sure, who
sits at the end of the table who wants
a valentine.
It is a sad thing to want a valentine
and not get one, but probably a sadder
thing not to send a valentine at all.
And the only possible remedy for St.
Valentine's mistakes is for everybody to
send a valentine to somebody he loves.

Before St Valentine's Day.
Long before Rome was converted to
Christianity the youths and maids on
Feb. 15 annually drew names from
two sacred urus in the temple, of those
of the opposite sex who fate decreed
were to be their sweethearts for the
coming year. The early fathers of the
church, finding they were powerless to
entirely eradicate the pagan practices
of the Lupercalia, changed it from Feb.
15 to St Valentine's day, the 14th.
