The Bareback Ride.

James Robinson, the veteran bare
back rider, whose early triumphs belong
away back in the childhood Of men now
grizzly with years, is to be seen almost
every day at Broadway and Twenty

with thin, dark features little, black

ance with the fact that he began his
career as rider as long ago as '45.
This was almost fifty years ago. says
the New York World. Jim, as his in
Inmates call him, was boy then, OF
course. He was apprenticed in that
year to John Gossen, an old-time cir
Gus man. In that day riders used the
pad or pillion and boys were taught
the art in different manner from
what they are now The mechanic"

cult of the ring, was not then known.
Boys or girls who were ambitious to
ride in spangles wore a belt to which
a eold was fastened which passed
through a ring i'll the pillion and
thence to the hands of the ring master,
who when he saw beginner losing his
balance pulled the cord and thus drew
the rider to the horse, preventing
fall. It was this way Jim Robinson
learned to ride in style and with
recklessness which soon won him the
title OF champion bareback rider OF the
world.
Robinson was the first man to "cut
ont" the bareback ride and make it
specially. This was In 1S47. Pre-
vious to that time he, like ali others,
rode the pad act. After 1S47 he did
all his riding bareback, aud went to
Europe in the early sos, and created
a great sensation. He was acknowl-
edged the greatest equestrian the
world had known. Il have been

The three and four ring circuses, which
make It necessary to employ an army

There's a good deal of
guarantee business in the store
keeping of to-day. It's TOO
excessive. Or too reluctant.
Half the time it means moth
ing. Words mLy aoo1as.
This offer to refund the
money, or to pay a reward, is
made under the hope that you
won't want your money back,
and that you won't claim the
reward. Of course.
So, whoever is honest in
making it, and works-not on
his own reputation alone, but
through the local dealer whom
you know, must have some
thing he has faith in back of
the guarantee. The business
wouldn't stand a year with
out it.
What is lacking is conf
dence. Back of that, what is
lacking is that clear honesty
