A QUAIXT BUT A

Through the courtesy of an Inter

of I last will and testament of Charles

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

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

President Lincoln and has been thero

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.

The hen Is a beastly contrary
"critter," sure enough. 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. C. P. CLEAVES.

Dr. Mary Walker says times will

"I have just read a story of an eco

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.
