NEW TORK. March ti. Standing on
the bridge of the stesmshlp Hambuig and
acknowledging the enthusiastic cheering
of thousands cf persons who had assem
bled to bid him goodbye. Theodore Roose
velt sailed for Africa today. He was
smiling happily and showed unmistakably
his plessure at the warmth of the demon
stration accorded him. Beside him on the
bridge stood hi son Kermlt and Captain
Burmelster, commander of the vessel.
The big ship left Its pier at six minutes
past 11 o'clock and It slowly made its way
out Into the channel amid cheers that
completely drowned the music of the
bsnds. which were playing "The Ptar
Fpangled Banner." The distinguished
traveler was still on the bridge, watching
the scene as the vesel was warped tut
Into the stream and headed down the tay
on the start of Its Journey. The cheering
continued as long ss the ship was within
hearing distance.
One cf the ex-president's last acts before
the vessel sailed was to send a message
to President Tsft reading:
' Parting thanks, love and sincerity. '
President Taft's goodbye gift to his
predecessor wa a gold pencil Inscribed
with the words. "Goodbye and Good
Luck."
The crowds on the steamer and the pier
were so great that the ex-president was
severely Jostled several times, but he was
not Injured and smiled through It all.
Accompanying the big ship down the
bey was the tug John J. Tlmmins, wnlch
had on board a large number of friends
of the ex-presldent. among them many
who had been associated with him In his
official life.
Talks to Newspaper Men.
Mr. Roosevelt gave a short talk to the
newspaper men on board the Hamburg.
He greeted them at the doorway of his
suite.
"Now, gentleman, I am glad to see you,'"
he said. "What can I tell you? Oh, yes,
there Is that picture (pointing to a portrait
of Mr. Taft), It Is very Interesting and
very fine, don't you think so?

Don't Diet for Fat
You have no appetite for gruel, have you?
By the same token, if you scale In excess

liking for gymnasium stunts. As a rule
fdt fo!ks are neither athletic nor ascetic,
-n opt under compulsion, and nowadays
they are not undyr compulsion to be either,
no mutter how necessary It Is for them to
reduce. There Is a third, better, and surer
way of getting rid of superfluous flesh.
The trouble with both dieting and exer
cise is. first, the trouble; second, the dan
ger (tuy heart); tnird, wrinkles: and.
fourth, stomach disgust. You are liable
to all four if you exercise or diet. On the
other hand, you can sidestep all four, and
still rrduce aa much or little as yoj please,

"Oh, gentlemen, there Is one thing that
I desire very much to have you s.iy for
me. There Is an Immense mass of mall
on board this steamship which has come
to ms and which I have not been able to
open and much of which I will not be able
to open for some time. I have no stenogra

I have received about S.OOO or 6.000 letters.
Four-fifths of those I have not even seen.
My thanks to the people who sent them
Is, however none the less. Now I wish
that you would say for tne that It will be
only e waste of time for anyone to write
to me while I am In Africa. Again I will
say that I deeply appreciate the courtesy
of those who have written me and take
this occasion to give them my thanks."
Ono of the reporters In the party broke
Into the conversation with the Interjection:
"Some one told me, colonel, that you were
going to be our next president."
Mr. Roosevelt Immediately threw up both
hands and exclaimed:
"Good bys, gentlemen, good bye." But he
was still smiling when the Interview closed.
M. Jusserand, the French ambassador, and
Mrs. Jusserand. went aboard the steamer
shortly after Mr. iRoosevelt's party arrived
and were escorted to the Roosevelt quar
ters. They conversed with Mr. Roosevelt
for some time.
Trlbat of Italians.
A notable feature of the reception on the
steamer was a tribute to the ex-president
by the Italian Chamber of Commerce of
New York City. The body presented a
bronse tablet bearing on one side a portrait
of the ex-presldent and on the other the
acene of the Sicilian earthquake and a
representation of the Goddess of Peace
placing a wreath on Roosevelt's head. The
tablet was inscribed:
"To Theodore Roosevelt, to you and the
United States, a tribute of thanksgiving
from Italo-Amerlcans for generous help to
their stricken brethren of Calabria and
Sicily."
Several delegations from Italian societies
were present, bringing a band, a floral
offering and a large banner, which was
erected on the pier. It bore the Inscription:
'Italo-Amerlcans let us shout 'Long live
President Roosevelt and the United States."
A tribute of thanksgiving on behalf of out
brethren of Sicily and Calabria. Let us
solemnly condemn any crime staining
Italy's name. Let us here pledge our loy
alty to American Institutions. Long live
America."
Thoaaaada Cheer Ex-President.
Shortly before the steamer sailed Mr.
Roosevelt, escorted by a detachment of
local police, appeared at the after gangway,
which led to the pier. The police had cleared
an open space across the pier to the point
where the Italian-American organisation
had a bronze tablet in readiness to present
him. The appearance of Mr. Roosevelt was
the slgnsl for tremendous cheering by the
crowds on the pier and on the steamer's
deck. As he csme down the gangplank the
cheering continued and a party of college
boys from Stevens institute in Hoboken let
loose their college yell. On the way across
the pier the lines of police escorting Mr.
Roosevelt were broken through by the pres
sure of the eager crowd and the ex-president
was swept tomsrd the tablet by ths
rush. The crowd closed In solldiy behind
him, and while the police were endeavoring
to fight off the on-rush Mr. Roosevelt asked
the speakers to make the presentation cere
mony very brief. The Italian orator cut
short his lengthy address, briefly stating
that the tablet was presented by the Ital
ians In appreciation of what Mr. Roosevelt
had caused to be done for the suffering
people of southern Italy and Calabria. Mr.
Roosevelt In reply said:
"I appreciate this very much. I want to
thank all. I cannot tell you how deeply
touchej I am."
frswdi Become I'asisssgesble.
Mr. Roosevelt, seeing that the crowd was
becoming unmanageable, gave directions
that the tablet be sent to Mrs. Roosevelt
and turned back toward the forward gang
plank of the steamer. The police did their
best to clear a way for him, but the crowd
became demonstrative and many persons
tried to shake the ex-presldent's hand. The
police took a firm grip on the situation,
pushed back the crowd and rushed Mr.
Roosevelt towara the steamer. In the pro
cess two of the policemen were knocked
off their feet, but were not injured. As he
neared the gangplank, Mr. Roosevelt's hst
flew off and a vacuum bottle which had
been presented him by a party of Pitts
burg friends at the pier, waa knocked from
his hand. Mr. Roosevelt kept right on and
reached the gangplank In safety. The crowd
yelled and cheered and amid the hubbub
bis lost articles were passed to him. Hs
bowed thanks and smilingly called, "I'm
all right"
The crowd becoming quiet, Mr. Roosevelt
said:

ful and am touched by their thoughtful
ness and their kindness In coming such a
long way. I want to thank also my fellow
citizens who came to see me off. God
bless you all."
Mr. Roosevelt then retired to the steam
er's deck.
On his return to the steamer after hie
experience on the pier, Mr. Roosevelt found
hundreds of friends wishing to bid him
God speed. A line was formed leading to
the outer door of his suite and the ex
presldent stood there and shook the hands
of the multitude that passed, among them
being not a few women. To all he ex
pressed his thanks. Everywhere he moved
outside his apartments he could not escape
the leavetakers. More than once he was
nearly Jostled off his feet and on one oc
casion was saved by a policeman from a
fall at the edge of a short flight of steps.
Through H all he was the soul of cor
diality arr3 cheerfulness and his broad
smile never left him. testifying unmistak

leave taking and anticipation of the stir

The baking qualities of this flour could
be put to no test more severe. For in every

bread made from all the standard flours.
The outcome of the contest, however;
only adds emphasis to our oft-repeated as

that of the kitchen as well, where you are
