GOLDEN WEDDING.

Nov 9th, 1905, was day long to be
remembered by the many happy guests
who assembled in the home of DR.. and
Mrs. S. W. Robinson, near Goshen
Springs, Miss, for the purpose of par
tlclpatlng in the pleasures of their Golden
Wedding.
An occasion like this, is one that rarely
occurs, and when in the current of events
lt'does occur, it is marked bv all, as a
time OF gladness, especially, when the
couple is one of such prominence.
DIR. and Mrs. Robinson are known
throughout the state and need no en-
comium, still, as all others, we are ready
toiSound their praises, and find ourself
entering upon slight eulogy. DR..
Robinson is one of Mississippi's most
prominent physicians. He is man of
great influence. He is esteemed for his
elegance, honored for his oble character,
and loved for his tender kindness. He
has made for himself a name that will
go untarnished throughout the ages. He
has held places of public trust, and there
been applauded by greatful people. He
has always been a public spirited man
and has done much for his country and
surrounding neighborhood. But in no
place is his fine intellect and tender heart
shown to such advantage as in the Sick
room. Here, his splendid character
reaches its zenitf-And you would fully
understand why the name, CDR. Robin
son.. IS SO dear in the many homes, if
you could meet with him here, and see
hlm administer to the every need of his
patient. With the gentleness of a wo-
man, his own hands are used to relieve
the suffering victim; while his sympathy
IS SO great that it fills one with utmost
confidence
DR.. Robinson is a gentleman of the
Old school, and deserves more good than
can be said of him. Bnt all the praise
IS not his own, for his faithful wife should
share this, with him, as she has all other
things in life. Mrs. Robinson-nee Miss
Jennie Johnson-is an esteemable lady,
pure and sweet, one of those gen tie
patient characters whom every-bo DIV
loves. She has been an inspiration to
her husband and they have reared large
family OF children, all of whom "rise up
to call her blessed"
There are seven children living, viz:
Mrs. H. T. Ellis, of Fannin, Mrs. j. c..
Ratcliff, of Ophelia, Mrs. DR.. Burnham,
OF PulaskI, Mrs. Wiley White, of Lud-
low, Jim Robinson, of Washington, DR..
Van Robinson, of Glendora and DR.. Sam
Robinson, of Memphis.
Allwere present but tWo-Dr. Van and
Jlm. They are all married except DR..
Van, and all have left the old home for
homes of their own. And now, only the
DR.. andhls wife. the two dear old grand
mothers Mesdalnes Robinson and John

and make the shave last twice or

You wouldn It shave the same per-

be talking about you, and everybody
would come to you for shave.

Say Something GOOD.

Pick out the folks you like the least and watch
them for while.
They never waste kindly word, they never
waste smile;
They criticise their fellow men at every chance
they get,
They never found human Just to suit their
fancy yet.
From them guess you'd learn some things If
they were pointed OUT
Some things that everyone of us should know
something about.
When someone knocks" brother, pass around
the loving cup
Say something good about him if you have to
make up.
It's safe to say that every man God made holds
trace of good
That he would fain exhibit to his fellows If he
could.
The kindly deeds in many soul are alternating
there,
Awaiting the encouragement of other souls that
dare.
To show the best that's in them; and universal
move
Would start the whole world running in a hope
full, helpful groove.
Say something sweet to paralyze the "knocker'
on the spot
Speak kindly of his victim if you know the man
or not.
The eyes that peek and peer to find the worst a
brother holds,
The tongue that speaks in bitterness, that frets
and fumes and scolds;
The hands that bruise the fallen tho their
strength was meant to raise
The weaklings who had stumbled at the parting
of the ways
All these should be forgiven for they "know not
what they dO;''
Their hindrance makes greater work for wiser
ones like you.
So. when they scOurge a wretched one who's
drained sims bitter cup,
Say something good about him if you have to
make it up.

Busting a Broncbc.

In 1901 1 went to Montana, the
land of gold and silver mines, and
large cattle ranches. I wanted to
be cowboy, SO [ stopped at the
Gut Bank ranch and hired out to
round up horses. I was to hit the
circle. Generally they put ten
derfoot on night herd, but as they
were short of men at that time, I
was put at this work. I was asked
if [ could ride; and as I had rode
horses before, I informed them
that I could stick to horse like
mucilage.
Now, when a man tells the fore
man that he is good rider, he
takes it for granted that you are a
twister or a buster. AS [ had no
outfit, he bought me a bride,
saddle, rope and blankets, and
charged them to me. We left
town that day in a spring wagon
for the Milk River Valley. We
got to camp about nine o'clock
that night, so, fortunately, none of
the boys saw me until next morn
ing.
Well, we tumbled out at four,
had fapjacks, beans, beefsteak and
potatoes for breakfast. One of the
men asked the foreman where he
found it-meaning me.
"Oh," said he, Il found the lit
tie maverick straying loose down.
town."
"What's it going to do?" asked
another.
"Twist," said the foreman.
Now, 1 didn't know what "twist"
ment at that time; if I had, I would
have declined with thanks. Well,
there were remarks made by the
different cowboys that bodied mis-
fortune for me. Say, but them
lads had good time at my ex-
pense! After breakfast I was tax
en- out to the herd to pick out my
horse for the days ride. Some
outfits give you string of ten or
twelve horses, but these were
punched with the roundup. I
was given a horse that one of the
night crew had ridden all night,
and told to cut out my horse.
Well, I picked out little spot
ted, ringtailed cayuse and run him
out and tried to rope him. I had
never thrown rope, but I knew
how to hold it. Well, I got that
blamed rope everywhere but near
that pony's neck. Finally one of
the boys roped him for me. Most
outfits have a twister to break
the green horses. Of course I
didn't know about this, or I would
not have attempted to ride the
horse they picked out.
l saddled him, and as I did so he
stood like an old COW, never moved
an eyelash. Say, but he was a
dandy. I no more than got on
when he went straight up into the
air, and I thought he was never
coming down. But he did, and l
soon imagined that I was aboard a
cyclone. He threw me off, walked
on my shirt bosom, took a sample
out of my knee, and branded me
on the jaw. I skated around on
the back of my neck, parted with
most of my complexion and nearly
all of my clothes.
