Valentine customs grow into a busy industry and cards
The piece notes how Valentine Day customs, once varied in origin, have become a large business selling sentimental and comic valentines and craftlike designs. It mentions verses, gifts, and lace dominated elaborate cards and the rise of card styled notes akin to Christmas cards. Postal workers face heavier loads yet carry memories and envy in comic valentines.

Massachusetts Medical Society bill sparks homeopathy clash
Dr Talbot’s claim that the act does not interfere with medical practice is challenged. The letter argues the bill would bar many physicians not in the named societies, creating a minimum code that risks turning medicine into a tightly controlled trade. It proposes a nine member board including representatives from several societies and a dentist, with strict licensing to practice in Massachusetts.
