Miss Roosevelt met Mr.

Longworth five years He come from Cincinnati, Tamils, was of the best, was, wealthy, and or was had great gentlemanly riches unrisedmhit, Mr. Longworth is quiet not impressive. Miss Roosevelt, though past her romantic days, still possessed of great spirit and boundless good nature. world interested and in Mr. Lnogworth she a man to whom shy could without reserve, tell him ber views opinions, and even ask him for advice.

The natures of these two young peowere compatible. The yeung congressman liked the franc. girlish and enthusiastic young woman whose native tact he found to be considerable and whose unselfishness and thoughtfulness were ingrained. And she became fond of the "gentleman from Ohio" who always appeared so unruffled, so kind, so courteous and so careof her welfare. The friendship progressed amazingly.

There apparently was no dream of love at this stage of the affair, though the best informed Dame Grundy would not dare to enter- into a discussion of psychologleal developments. It became apparent, how ever, in Washington places where Miss Roosevelt was to be found that she preferred to go to houses and accept invitations to parties and funetions when she was quite certain Mr. Longworth also would be present. Her girl friends observed in her an interest on these occasions as to Mr. Longworth's whereahouts, but nothing more than this.

The congressman was equally intent on discovering the exact location of Miss Roosevelt, and the two always a few minutes after entering met, withice of entertainment. The friendship of Miss Roosevelt and Mr. Longworth progressed uninterruptedly. There, was no obstacle objection. juncture the long jaunt to the Orient was being planned.

Miss Roosevelt was asked to go and she is said to have obtained her father's permission without much difficulty, the president having meat faith in Secretary Taft's ability to pilot the party safely and properly from Washington to Mainilla and return. The special train took Secretary Taft and his fellow "Taftians" as they are now called. across the continent. short stop was made in Chicago, and it is recalled that from that city reports of the romance of the President's daughter and Mr: Longworth were telegraphed broadcast. These reports, however.

were without special basis and simply the natural addenda to there stories from Cincinnati few weeks previously when Miss Roosevelt had visited the Longworth home. The most enjoyable part of the journ ney around the world was the trip that succession of lovely days, across Pacific, and it is no secret the glorious nights and placid seas will ever be cherished in the memories of two young people. Miss Roosevelt and Mr. Longworth were much together. They grew to know each other perfectly and love came speedily.

Everyone remembers the return of the Taft party last fall. In every hamlet and city there gathered knots of people wave a greeting to Miss Alice. The girl in picture hat and sim-, ple white gown is recalled standing on the rear platform of the observation car smiling her sincere pleasure at the welcome. Always behind her stood Mr. Longworth.

Mr. Longworth left "Taftians" in Chicago and took a night train to Cincinnati. He tarried only a short time at home and scurried to. Washington eager to see his intended. The recent trips of Miss Roosevelt to Philadelphia, where she was feted, and to New York.

where she was shotted" ten thousand times and followed by a curious crowd, is recent history. Just 22 Years Old. Alice Roosevelt was born twentytwo years ago. She opened her blue eyes for the first time Feb. 10.

1884. Her birth was quickly followed by the death of the mother. Theodore Roosevelt's first she who was Miss Alice Lee of Boston. The wee babe was turned over to the grandmother by her father. and the elderly woman showered upon the infant constant care and attention.

When little Alice was about 3 years of age her father married a second time, the bride being Miss Edith Kermit Carew, and the new Mrs. Roosevelt received the baby girl with open arms. Ever since she has been a lov-1 ing and tactful stepmother. The affection between the two always has been strong and unchanging. With a new mother in the Roosevelt home.

Alice's childhood was no different from that of all other girls of her station. Her mother had left her a comfortable legacy, which of late years has returned an income of about $3.000 a year, and while her father was not rich. he was well-to-do and the family always lived well. Miss Roosevelt was educated almost entirely by governesses. At an early age her father went to Washington, following his service in the New York legislature, and here, Alice met many young women of whom she came to be very fond.

They were daughters of cultured parents, but not immensely wealthy. The president's daughter was taught French and German and also was educated in music. Much Resembles Father. In temperament Miss Alice is like her father, but she did not inherit from him his extreme love of literature. Miss Roosevelt has never cared for novels, but has been somewhat devoted poetry, especially that of Longfelwho is her favorite.

She disliked indoor studying and "practicing" as a child. and used to sit before the piano persistently learning her last music lesson with tears streaming down her cheeks. Miss Roosevelt has never been a robust girl. Singularly enough she is seldom if ever really ill, and while at times she appears to be worn out, her appearance is deceptive, for her endurance is great. When in her best trim she has a tinge of color to her cheeks: eyes, which are beautiful, have a darting light in them; her smile is fascinating, and, altogether, the girl Is a picture of maidenly grace and loveliness.
