TIFE BEE: OMAHA. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1915.
: By MELLIFICIA. Friday, February 12, 1915.
HEARTS are aure enough trumpa these daye. Every function, no
matter how Informal, moat be fussed up with red hearts and val
enUne favors galore, or It Is not a real party.
St. Valentine, the dear old priest of long ago, has been dragged
Into tbli frivolous celebration of his name's dajr, and I wonder, bow he
likes the view.
' There was a time when a shy little card, muchly beruffled with lace
and artlstln paraphernalia, was all that was looked for on Valentine's day,
but now the time seems not to hold Its own without a formal fete ot soma
description.
And the modest little card Is being evolved Into the heart-shaped
floral boxes 6f violets, the February flower; candy, In all guises possible,
and even occasionally diamond rings.
More substantial gifts are Interesting other matrons and maids and
axe made with their own deft fingers. A particular favorite Is the fancy
doll who hides the telephone under her petticoats. Little did St. Valentin
over dream that he would become so pretentious and gay a cavalier

wilt arrive Sunday morning to be the
a lew years ago -wmie in Liverpool, England, we seemed to be attracting a great deal of. attention. . We noticed where group of men were gath
ered that there was considerable nudging and shrugging of shoulders and frequently some were rude enough to point towards us. Nor was the curiosity
confined to men only. Women and children even turned around andgazed upon us, sometimes staring rather impertinently. This was such a new
on Bond street, the explanation came. A poor
seedy looking individual approached and touched ns lightly on the shoulder, Baying, "This is the Mysterious Mr. Raffles," and when we denied
the soft impeachment and attempted to-prove an alibi, he said, "For heaven's sake don't deny if you are he, for there is a prize of 5 pounds for
the person who will make the discovery and pierce the incog." The explanation then was that they were running a sort of a Dolly Dimples stunt
and while of British birth we evidently did not look to the manner born and they ' thought we were surely it.
