fNEW YORK. June 18. Theodore Roose-
velt bore with his uiiual buoyancy a day
cf heavy aftlgues. public duties and private
motions commingled, and at i:40 o'clock
this afternoon, after a family reunion at
the home of Theron Butler, grandfather of
bis prospective daughter-in-law. Miaa Ele

U'lrty years, a aaen
ernor of the state vice president and
president of the nation, and more latterly,
ambassador to the jungla and monitor to
those who sit in the seats of the mighty.
He had an expansive smile for every
body, a cheery word for "the boys," hie
old friends, the newspaper men, a pet
antecdote for the politicians and special
greetings of affection for hlsold com
mand, the roughrlders, and a quirk eye
for absolutely everything. Lyman
Abbott, he called "partner" Oliver was
greeted by hla nickname; Senator Thomai
Grady, his old antagonist In state poli
tics, he rallied expertlyand so It went
down the line.
"Roosevelt food luck1' still followed him
self. Though hot and sultry, the weather
held fair until the marine parade, the
exercUe at the Uuttery and the mnrch up
Broadway and Fifth avenue to Central
park bad been carried through with punc
tuality and precision. Then It rained great
guns. A torrential thunderstorm, accom
panied by a high wind that did much darn
age, swept suddenly down on the home
ward bound vinltors, but cleared again
shortly before 6 o'clock in plenty of time
to give his eager fellow citlxens of Long
Island ample chance to see him standing
on the reur platform of his train as he
wsved them a welcome.

Persistent Advertising Is the Road
Big Return
ta
There was more firing of big guns as Mr.
Roosevelt left the Manhattan for the An-
drescoggln. Then comparative quiet while
In the upper bay patrol boats darted back
and forth among a hundred and one craft
of every description marshaling them In
line for the parade.
The United States steamship Dolphin
leading the parade, and closely followed
by the Androscoggin, lot away at twelve
minutes past .
The first welcome was handed Mr. Ron
veit by the boarding pilot on behalf of
the Pilots' association. This association
was ths last to speed the colonel on his
departure from New York. Health Officer
Dody was ths first of those from shore to
pay his respects to Mr. Roosevelt
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, Con
gressman Nicholas Long-worth of Ohio and
Captain Butt boarded the Kalserln from
ths Manhattan and .were received by Mr.
Roosevelt In his stats room.
Greetlnsr to Children.
As the cutter Manhattan came alongside
the Kainerin Auguste Victoria, Mr. Roose
velt made his way through a group of
second cabin passengers, who clustered
along the rail, and, spying his children on
the Manhattan, called to them and threw
them kisses.
airs, jtooseveit was tne first to come
down the gang plank from the vessel to
the Manhattan. In a moment she had
thrown her arm about Archie and Quentln
and effusively kissed and huggnd both of
them. ' Khe next greeted Theodore Roose
velt Jr., and his fiance, Miss Kleanor Al
exander.
Mr. Roosevelt made a flying leap to the
deck of the Manhattan, and with the
exuberance and spirit of a school boy he
slapped his son Theodore on the back. He
then turned to Miss Alexander and kissed
her. He took up Quentln and Arohie In
his arms and gave them resounding
smacks.
Shakes Hands with Everybody.
These greetings over, Mr. Roosevelt, with
Collector of the Port Loeb at his side, ex
tended cordial greetings to the others on
board the Manhattan. He shook hands
with everybody. Including members of tho
crew.
In the meantime the big liner was
hemmed In clove by mall boats and news
paper tugs, while clustering about this
central group were tuss, yachts, excursion
boats, lighters. and all kinds of merchant
craft, all gayly decorated with flairs. The
cheering was continuous between those on
board the assembled fleet and the paen
gers on the Kaiserin. The early morning
hod been foggy, but under the Influence of
clearing skies, flags and pennants broke
out gayly, and the sun was warm and
bright.
The South Carolina came to anchor 1,000
feet in front of the liner and two cable
lengths away from the Dolphin. Once more
the guns belched forth a salute, this time
from the battleship to the secretary of the
navy, and 'from the secretary's boat in
return. Simultaneously with tho firing of
ths last gun, both ships broks out lines
of burgees and signal flags from mast
head to deck line. i
Great Crowd at the Battery.
As ths time for Colonel Roosevelt's ar
rival at the Battery drew near, enormous
crowds swarmed toward Battery park,
overflowing the sidewalks and almost
tying up traffic In the lower part of the
city.
The whole city had taken on a holiday
appearance. Flags floated everywhere, pic
tures of Roosevelt were hung In thousands
of windows, and along the line of march
buildings were draped with bunting.
While the naval parade was still Invis
ible from the Manhattan shores, all the
whistles in the lower harbor broke Into
a furious din. Roosevelt was approaching
and the crowd began to stir nervously.
Swift excursion steamers, their rails
block with sightseers, began to file by
the battery- and still the parade was invis
ible. At :GS the thunder of a salute came
rolling across the harbor.
A moment later the white hull of the
first ship In the parade, dressed from stem
to stern in flags, came In sight and the
Seventy-first regiment band, stationed on
the water front struck up "Columbia, the
Gem of the Ocean."
There were no cheers from the crowd
that packed the park and filled windows
of office buildings. The people were still
and expectant But from excursion boats
on the harbor, a better view of the water
parade was to be bad.
Parade In TrrelTe Divisions.
As the gray-hulled South Carolina came
abreast of the Robins Reef light, a rift
of white foam at Its bow, the patrol fleet
of revenue cutters swung Into position to
starboard and porVof the line and slowly i
the maratlme pageant passed on with the
Androscoggin immediately behind tho
skirmish line of war vessels.
Behind the Androscoggin the merchant
vessels took their positions in double col
umns, maintaining a distance of 100 feet
Divided into twelve divisions, commanded
by as many vice commodores, the parad
ing fleet nearly 100 strong, steamed up
the bay and into the Hudson, keeping well
In toward ths New York shore. When
opposite the stake boat anchored off
Fifty-ninth street the procession turned
In towards the Jersey shore and steamed
down the river to the Battery.
As the defiie reached the lower end of
Manhattan every craft afloat and every
factory ashore put its enthusiasm Into
steam and let loose a pandemonium such
as is heard but once a year, at midnight
of December SI.
At the Battery as the morning wore on,
the crowd grew denser, but, nenimed in
as It wss by the police and the obstruct
ing dock houses. It could see little of the
water parade.
March of the Rouah Riders,
After the Androscoggin turned the mark
boat at Fifty-ninth street the crowds
turned from the shore and made their
way to the streets along which the land
parade was to move.
Second only in interest to the returning
traveler, were the delegations of west
erners.
The march of the Rough Riders down
Broadway on their way to greet their old
commander at the battery, was the signal
for an enthusiastic welcome all along the
line. The troopers wore yellow khaki
with buckskin leggins and broad-brimmed
gray slouch hats.
Their horses looked like mustangs, ac
coutered with heavy military saddles and
blankets, as though ready for campaigning.
They moved In battalion formation, the
ranks extending for two blocks along the
roadway with flags flying and their
Rough Rider band playing.
Colonel Roosevelt left the Androscoggin
at the Battery at 10:65 a. m., and walked
to his place In ths speaker's stand accom
panied by Mayor Gaynor.

On assurance
Roys,
Roosevelt's first question.
that there was, he said:
"Good. Now we will go ahead.
I'm feeling fine."
Mayor Gaynor welcomed Colonel Roose
velt briefly and Mr. Roosevelt began his
reply immediately.
His voice was a little hoarso, but he
spoke with his usual vigor and declama
tory effect. A cheer arid a laugh went up
when he said with emphasis:
"I enjoyed myself immensely."
Address of Colonel Roosevelt.
Replying to Mayor Gaynor, Colonel
Roosevelt said:
"I thank you. Mayor Gaynor. Through
you I thank your committee and through
them I wish to thank the American people
for their greeting. I need hardly say I am
most deeply moved by the reception given
me. No man could receive such a greeting
without being made to feel both very
proud and veiy humble.
"I have been away a year and a quarter
from America and I have seen strange
and Interesting things, auke In the heart
of the frowning wilderness and In the cap
itals of the mightiest and most highly pol
ished of civilized nations. I have thor
oughly enjoyed myself and now 1 am more
glad than I can say to get home, to be
back In my own ' country, back among
people I love. And I am ready, and eager
to do my part so far as I am able In help
ing solve problems which must be solved
If we of this, the greatest democratic re
public on which the sun has ever shone, are
to see Its destinies rise to the high level
of our hopes arid Its opportunities.
"This Is the duty of every cltlxen, but it
is peculiarly my duty, for any man who has
ever been honored by being made president
of the United States Is thereby for ever
after the debtor of the American people
and Is bound throughout his life to remem
ber this as his prime obligation and In
private life as much as In publlo life so to
carry himself that the American people
may never have cause to feel regret that
once they placed him at their head."
Everywhere the returning travolor met
the same whirlwind of demonstrative greet
ings as he went through the packed city
streets.
Mr. Roosevelt stood erect in his carriage
most of the time, his silk hat in his right
hand waving responslvs greetings to the
echoing cheers. By noon the popular wel
come was practically concluded and Mr.
Roosevelt Joined relatives for lunch, prepa
ratory to returning to his home at Oyster
Bay later In the day.'
Calls the Roach Itlders.
Then with a flushing face and even
broader smile than he had worn before
upon this day of smiles, Colonel Roosevelt
sprang to his feet waved his hat frantically
and peering at the veterans with that pe
cullarly Intent look with which they were
familiar began to call his old comrades
In arms by name.
Did the Rough Riders answer? They
sure did.
Battery place had never heard such
sounds before; will never hear such sounds
perhaps again, ' The men were riding east
ern horses. Several of them had complained
to me on the night before, that they did
not think of them wltk confidence. "They're
too darn gentle," one of them said sadly.
"You can't never tell what a cayuse that's
so darned gentle will do to you when the
unexpected happens. I'm plumb scar't." '
But they forgot their worry ovur gentle
mounts when they came alongside their
colonul from Africa. They forced them
into place before him in tho line as guard
of honor with such adroitness as those
eastern nags had nevsr known before, they
calmed them with a skill quits new to them
and then they, rode Kerens at times: at
times ebullient with mighty yells, as path
finders up Broadway for the man who had
led thorn up Soil Juan hill. .

Too much fat Is botk uncomfortable and
dangerous, but unually fleshy people pre
for to put up with Its Inconvenience rather
than punish themselves with ths tiresome
exercising usually prescribed, or endanger
their health by taking the so-called
"cures" and patent fat "reducers."
This self sacrifice of comfort and
health to overabundant fat Is entirely un
necesitary, however, as Mrs. Luella Digger
tels us there is a home receipt that is far
superior in every way to anything money
will buy for reducing superfluous flesh.
It is said this simple mixture will talks the
fat oft of man or woman at ths rate of at
least a couple or pounds a week without
even cuuulng wrinkles. Moreover does not
disturb the stomach, but is a good thing
for the system, clearing away plmplex,
and. best of all, it does not Interfere with
Hie diet. You can use It and at the same
lime eat whatever you like. This receipt
is aa follows: ounce Marmuia, vi ounce
Klulil Extract Laacara Aromatic, and 3i
ounces of 1 Ipperinlnt Mater, (let these In
gredients at any drug store, mix them to
gether at home and takn one teaspoonful
after each men) and at bedtime.
