For Mr. Taft it will be the proudest day in the history of his life. For Theodore Roosevelt it will be a memorable anniversary, tinged with the sadness which, since, the begin ning of the nation, has been felt by every ex-president of the United States. The retirement of a president ifrom the White House is a pathetic milestone in the lies not only accompanied her husband's remains to Canton." Most of the presidents have left Washington immediately after the Inauguration of their successors. A QUAIXT BUT A BEAUTIFUL WILL Through the courtesy of an Inter ested friend living in the east The Times has received a copy of the of I last will and testament of Charles the president and his family, but in the lives of the household staff of the mansion, says the Boston Her ,ald.

"Will of Charles Lounsbury. years. The average term of a presi dent nowadays is eight years, and In this time friendships are form ed between the family of the execu tive and the people gathered about them to serve them. President Roosevelt's young children have practically spent their childhood In .the White House. The leave taking -will be naturally sorrowful for them, as well as for the doorkeepers, messengers and attendants who have been their companions for seven .years. The actual moving of one family 'out of and another family into the "White House is a simple operation, attracting in itself but little atten tion on the part of the families con cerned and none at all on the part 'of the general public. Preparations are being made In advance, personal- effects quietly ..packed and possessions sent to the 1 future home. The leave taking on Te last will and testament of Charles Loi.nsbury, who died in the Cook County Asylum (Poor House) at Dunning, 111.) This will was re'ad at the dinner of the New York University Law School Alumni Association by Jus tice Walter Lloyd Smith. "I Charles Lounsbury being of sound mind and disposing memory do hereby make and publish this my last will and testament. I give to good fathers and moth ers in trust for their children all good little words of praise and en couragement and all quaint pet names and endearments, and I justly and generously as the needs of their children may require, charge said parents to use them Item I leave to children inclu sively but only for the term of their childhood all and everyone flowers of the fields and the blossoms of the part of the retiring president, his the WOO(B with the rlght to p,ay wife and children consists only of the goodbys said and the handshakes .given, for the White House is en tirely furnished by the government. In the winter the president will "begin preparations for leaving, the details of which will be under the personal direction of Secretary Loeb and Colonel Bromwell, superintend ent of public buildings and grounds. In the first place, all the papers which have accumulated in the "White House during the last seven years will bo carefully looked into "by tho president and his office staff. All porsonal papers will bo packed aind sent to Oyster Bay. All ofllclal papers and documents will be sent to tho various executive departments t)t tho government, according to tho aisual custom. Then tho porsonal ellects of the Roosovelts will bo packed and early In tho year will bo ssont to the Sagamoro Hill homo tin kler Mr. Loeb's directions. Of thoso who have long beon as sociated with tho White House none tvlll witness tho departure of tho Jtoosevolt family with greater regret thnn Colonel W. H.

Ho has seen every pros .flont say farowoll to tho White IlnuMs slnco tho war. inhe departure of a president Is tone cof tho saddest things I know," a":B OColonol Crook. "I am scarcoly jiblo to describe- tho emotions I have tfolt in saying goodby to tho dlfferont presidents under whom I lutvo serv ed and tho members of their fam ilies. I bollovo I novor felt qulto so badly as whon President Cleveland wotlred at tho close of his first term, and porhaps thoy felt It keenly too. Mrs. Clovoland romalned until tho last moment on tho morning on March 4, loath to tnko hor depar ture. Sho visited tho dlfferont rooms, looking at tho pictures, gazing out of -tho windows. I went to hor to say goodby and found hor taking leavo of old Jerry Smith, ono of tho .old among them freely according to the customs of children, warning them at the same time against thistles and thorns. And I devise to children the banks of the brooks and tho golden sands beneath the waters thereof and the odors of the willows that dip therein and the white clouds that float high over the giant trees. And I leave the children the long long days to be merry In a thousand ways, and the night and morn and the train of tho milky way to wonder at, but subject nevertheless to the rights hereinafter given to lovers. Item I devise to boys jointly all the useful Idle fields and commons where ball may bo played, all pleas ant water where one may swim, all snow clad hills, where ono may coast and all streams and ponds where ono may fish, or where when grim winter comes ono may skate, to have and to hold tho same for tho period of their boyhood. And all meadows with tho clover blossoms and butterflies thereof, tho woods and their appurtenances the squir rels and birds and echoes and strange noises, and all distant places which may bo visited together with tho ad ventures there found. And I give tp said boys each his own place at the fireside at night with all pictures that may bo seen ln tho burning wood, to enjoy without let or hind rance and without any Incumbrance of caro. Item To lovers I desire their Imaginary world with whatever they may need as the stars of tho sky, tho red roses by the wall; tho bloom of tho hawthorn, the sweet strains of music and aught else by which thoy may dcslro to figure to each other the lastlngncss and beauty of their lovo. Item. To young men jointly I de vise and bequeath all boisterous In spiring sports of rivalry and I glvo to thorn tho disdain of weakness and undaunted confldenco ln their own strongth though they nro rude I give them tho power to make lasting friendships and of possessing com panions, and to them exclusively I give all merry songs and brave chor uses to sing with lusty voices. Item. And to those who are no longer children or youths or lovers I leave memory and I bequeath to them the volumes of the poems of Burns and Shakespeare and of other poets, If there be others, to the end that they may live over the old days again, freely and fully without tithe or diminution. Item. To our loved ones with snowy crowns I beqeath the happi ness of old age and the love and gratitude of their children until they fall asleep. t WITH the : I TOAST AND TEA : Walker, of Boston; for vice-president Hetty Green, of Hoboken and Bellows Falls.

When eggs are 60c a dozen, you couldn't get one of them to lay an egg for love or money, but when the market makes a downward pull, then they begin to get a cackle on 'em. At 25 cents a dozen, there Is more or less disturbance in the hen yard. At 15 cents you can hear nothing much but cackle and the rooster is then doing the big promenade act. When the 10-cent clip is hit, by the ever lasting carrying on, you'd bet a box of ground bone against a spoonful of oyster shells that there was not a hen in the pen that was not lay ing from G to 27 eggs a day, and that blooming rooster doesn't do a thing but holler it to you from day light till dark. LIFE. Give me a taste of life! Not tho tang of a seasoned wine; Not the drug of an unearned bread; Not the grape of an untitled vine. The life that is really life; That comes from no fount afar, But springs from the toll and strife In the world of things as they are. Give me the whole of life! The joy, the hope and the pain. The struggle whose end Is strength, The loss that is Infinite gain. Not the drought of a cloudless sky, Not the rust of a fruitless rest; Give me the sun and the storm, The calm and the white sea crest. Give me the best of life! To live in the world with God. Where the seed that is sown and dies Lifts a harvest over the sod. Where beauty and truth are one, Where the right must have its way. Where the storm-clouds part for stars And the starlight heralds the day. Give me the toll of life! The muscle and mind to dare, No luxury's lap for my head, No idly won wealth to share, Whether by pick or plane, Whether by tongue or pen, Let me not live in vain; Let me do a man's work among men.

Dr. Mary Walker says times will be Setter when women look upon shopping as a necessity Instead of as a diversion. Not long ago Mrs. Hetty Green said the extravagance of women was ruining the country. For president in 1912 Dr. Mary "I have just read a story of an eco nomical farmer that Mr. Rockefeller, Jr., had been telling to his Sunday class," said Higgins. "He says there Is a farmer out near Cleveland who makes a fad of economy. Every time he drives into town he carries a hen with him tied to the seat of his buggy. A friend who rode out with him one day was curious to learn the use of that hen, so he watched carefully and found out. When at' noon the farmer lunched under a tree he gave his mare a feed from a nose bag, and the hen, placed on tho ground, ate all the horse spill ed from the bag, so that there was no waste at all." "Good story," said. Wiggins, "and true, too. I know the old farmer. Mr. Rockefeller didn't say where he got his lunch, did he?" "No," said Higgins. "The story stops there." "It was the egg the hen laid under the buggy seat on the way out," said Wiggins. ti 1 Uhijotie A Wt i ill B Iff W&h i I WW a a M ON'T wait for an at- f Jdf Lack of the grippe a to force you to buy your a heavier underwear buy i it. now.
