The much talked of social affair of
tlic week was the golden wedding anni
versary celebration of Mr. and Mrs.
Wlinnm II. Itlchmond, at their hand
some suburban home, Richmond Hill,
on Monday. Few people In these days
of divorces and microbes and new dis
cuses live to be the central figures of
such an event, und when remarkable
vigor of mind and body characterize
both of these chief actors, and honor
and prosperity have added an appro
prlate setting to the scene, it is one
that is of more than passing itnpoit
nnce in the community. Mr Rich
mond comes from fine Now England
stock and his wife la alio a member
of tui Illustrious family. Ho started to
battle for himself In the world at the
ubo of 13 and now at "8, has with his
family a position of great distinction In
the community.
The colebratlon was unique In many
respects. The beautiful stately rel
denco was lavishly decorated with
loses and potted plants fiom their own
gardens and eonseivatotlcR and with a
profusion of flowers tent bv lo Iiib
friends, not a few from many miles
distant. In the receiving llii" with Mr.
and Mrs. Richmond, Mr. and Mrs
Tracy and the Misses Richmond, was
their granddaughter, Miss T,ois Tiacy,
ainijed in the little quaint silk gown
worn by the bride fifty years ago.
Nearby was seen the dear old fislilon
cd bonnet In rich embroidered cup"
of a most delicate hue. In which she
must have looked like a porttalt out
of a poem. The shawl woin at the
wedding was also shown. Many beau
tiful piesents weie received.
The fli st to congratulate the biido
and groom were Mrs. Tieinper and Mis.
A L Munn, of Kingston. N. Y, and
Mi L. W. Moiss, of Caibondale, sis
teis and brother, who with other rela

and which appeals below:
ISI'l
A summer girl trlppul through the shades
Where CitfrklU'M ltiai.ti.oiis mountains
rb e,
Illstorli moiintaliih, healthful gl.ules
Wliero smiles light up the winning ees.
It chanced a Yunkeo pistol tint wai
Ho saw tho slucles, he spied the ghl,
A tht 111 was all such come tit stay
Tor Cupid lay where cddlts w lilt 1
Near mossy hanks wheio fairies littrp
And work thtlr Hlmwilest pi ins of old,
He held his dart well m id and sharp
With h.ttdened steel and point of gold.
He winged his arrow with tin aim
That phreed the center of nil love;
He never hul that dart again,
Tho wound was made and jiars still
ptovo
That healing art enn havo no power
To cure, or stuunch tho stream that
flowed,
Or draw the dirt from that loved hour
For fifty rolling jenrs or more.
1S99.
That summer ghl stays through I ho
years,
Through fifty winters strong and true
In shine and shade of noble hltth,
She smiles and chcets os thoso can do
Who give their nil to manly worth.
Twas flippant as tho summer brcczo
Compared with ocean depth and vvltiil
To cull her "Summer," slueo tho tn es
She saw nnd tlmo j roclaim she Is (ho
Winter girl.
Through tlcuds and sunshine, heat and
cold
These two have walked tn God's own
light.
Thev love the flower nor heed tho world
Which grows as time keeps up Its flight.
Wo' 11 ill Ink their health In God's own wlna
Which flows from out tho mountain
rock
Not mun-tllHtlllfd from out tho vino;
"Heaven bring them homo and lato tho
shock."
Tho lojal hold on thlnsh unseen,
Tho royal faith beneath Heaven's
dome.
The staunch conviction all I ween
Win Heaven's blessing on this home.
Today will bo another great day nt
the Country club. Indeed It Is declared
that seveinl gentlemen have been so
Interested In piactlclng "putting" In

that they had scarcely heaid there was

probably bo thirty or more entries, nnd
It la not yot decided owing to tho un
certainty of tho number whether tho
putting will be with four or eight balls.

It Is difficult after several centuries
of civilization nnd conventionality to
find something new In the way of wed
ding arrangements. A Huffalo brldo
rather startled the conservatives at a
swell wedding tho other day by carry
ing Jack roses, It was a graceful lit
tle compliment to the groom, by tho
way. His name was "Jack" Clreon, and
tho half dozen btldcsmalds wore palo
green and nlso carried Jack roses.
Another girl and her fair attendants
not long ago shocked a fashionable
throng nt a church wedding by appear
ing at the noon-day ceremony arrayed
In gowns cut low In the neck and with
the shortest possible sleeves.
Still another fair maid had tho train
of her wedding gown lifted over tho
tlueshold nnd up tho long drawn aisle
of the church by a pet dog who wus
"trained" for the occasion nnd was
ceinvenlently white. None of these
vngatles uro specially recommended to
the fair June bride. One thing she
should do If she would be "awfully
stylish,' as the small girl said, nnd that
Is have her wedding bouquet and those
of her btldcsmalds of sweet peas.

1 HER POINT OF VIEW
The day of rubber tiros has surely
arrived. If only the street cars nnd
the milk vvngans would adopt them for
general use life would bo decidedly
more worth living. If ever there was a
town which by reason of the curse of
much legislation and wretched sttcctst
Is speclnlly designed to promote the
rubber the Industry that town 13
Scranton. There may be remote coun
try districts where the corduroy roads
are worse than Washington avenue,
but they linger not In the recollection
of man. The method of the rural su
pervisor In clawing nil tho stones big
and little from the surrounding coun
try nnd heaping them Into the middle
of tho road for tho teams to break up
at their leistne Is an lmpiovement on
tho rond making of this town wheio
the holes nre never filled up nnd a
wagon with ordlnnty tires and springs
la an Instrument of torluie
It Is giowlng to be tho custom for
Scranton men who happen to be able
to make luxurious gifts to their w s.
Instead of diamonds, stock In 10.1l
mines. Inlaid pianos and tho like, to
bestow cairliccM with extia flexible
springs In the cushions and super pad
ded tires. Several ladles who 1110 fond
of driving and whose netvous systems
have been nearly wrecked by Jolting
over Washington tivenuw nnd other
streets, hive been made happy and
proud with such sin prises recently.
Rubber tiros nie a great Invention.
They are equally desirable on wheels,
manncis, conversation and even em
thought. They slip over the haul spots
with a velvety haste; they leave llltlo
sense of lar and soften the rough places
of life. I 'know a woman who has a
tubber-tlreel speech, which phrase
moans something a deal nicer thnn It
sounds. There1 Is none ot that harsh,
giatlng friction that rasps unpleasant
ly on her acquaintances. She goes
softly Ir her uttered thoughts and
while there Is nono of the sibilant ir
lltatlon of a whisper theie Is the soft,
gliding cniess of tone and of kindness
that leaves beautiful memotles. She
doesn't say ellsagicable things to peo
ple and what is still better she doesn't
think them It Isn't nil Inborn sweet
ness either One day In a reminiscent
mood she declatcd that she was natu
l.illy caiping ethical and ill-nntureel
In her judgment of other peopl , but
that she found these unpleasant traits
glowing to such a phenomenal degiee
that she detot mined to keep them un
der subjection Pelng a person of
great determination of character she
has succeeded beyond whit most of
her friends could believe I mertiy nc -quired.
She probably wouldn't like to
be ealh'd the rubbei tired lady fot cor
talnlv that Is scarcely nn elegant term
but In some lespects It fits bet tepose
and self control and more than till her
gentle way of dealing with the fi all
ties of others
It Is a good thing to have a tubber
tlted temper that doesn't flash and
Hume like stol sttiking flint at eveij
obstacle and every Iriltatlnn. One has
so much better time If this little soft
Ri1.1t il Intetpo'es between the sharp
stones of the woild and the w heels of
one's lirltablllty After all It Is one's
own self that Is hurt ami not the
stones. It Is so much easier nnd plf as-
anter to go smoothly, for the blows
and the IHsh. s of anger aie iuv.iilably
reacting In their tendency, the cushion
the of self conttol Is a grateful inter
position and as it rolls eiver the face
and over the heart It does not cut deep
flit rows which letnaln to tell the wot Id
that sudden spasms of fury and long
hours of sullenness have marred oneV
life, which like love 'is hint with jar
and fret."
It Is good to have the uibber thv of
silence on the tongue when one's near
est and dearest seem to deserve re
buk", nnd when blltet words lisc al
most to the lips und to adjust that gen
tle guard when gossip and sc.indul
come to one's cars and temnt utter
ance One Is so seldom sony for the
unkind thing left unsaid.
We ar too apt to put rubber titer on
some things where they might better
be left off. There Is conscience fot
Instnnce we want to so deiden the
Jar of the world from Its sensitiveness
that we fahlv envelop it in rubber
cushions. Then we say "Lie still, dear,
and fo to sleep," and we gnllv bounce
off undisturbed by Its mufllod walls be
cause of the frailties and sins great
and small, over which we drag it
breathlessly. Then theie aie the rub
berth es that soften for our sjmpathles,
the ciosswas of pain nnd sulferlngs of
others ovei which wo ilde and because
the J.ii does not suddenly w tenth our
feelings vie say: "Oh, theie is little
want and suffering except that which
people biing on thenis ives We have
been Imposed upon su often That
wasn't a very pitiful case, it really
didn't appeal to us ns wo ctrne nlcng."
And we lubber tire our tenderness so
that It Isn't awakened by the loneli
ness of those who sit nt out own lite
sides, nnd wo softly ptotcet our ener
gies und deslies nnd our good inten
tions, so that they must not be dilven
over the untiodden road where sharp
Monet of relk ctlon and of the world's
necessity may Injure their fine con
stiuctlnn, and we say to the murmur
ing voice within: "Tomorrow we will
do that gentle deed we have so long
promised, tomottow wo will .sny to th"
one at our side. 'You did well this
day,' " tomonow we will begin to make
life mote noble, more beautiful. Rut
tomonow nevei eomcs, and whilo mak
ing promises to It vie ono day anlvc
at the end of the pith wheio the soft
est padded wheels can cany us no
f ut ther.

The Big Store today passes the mile-stone of its eighteenth
month. Every one of them has a history. From that December
night a year and a half ago when the doors first swung open, we
have been making history all worthy of perusal.
Away and beyond everything else we demonstrated the pos
sibility of selling goods at little prices. This is illustrative to you
in the selling power of our two big stores.
Public patronage came to us unsolicited. We printed our
store news, of course, but only to tell , you of what was here.
We have saved you money you'll admit that, else you would
not come here by tens, and hundreds, and thousands.
The last six months of our first two years will be record
breakeis all along the line. With our largely increased store and
delivery service we are better able than ever to cope with every
situation. Meantime our store news must attract your attention
for every line you read means a saving to you.
