REFORMER AND PEACEMAKER 
Theodore, Kermit, Ethel, Archibald and Quentin, with all of whom 
he has held years of companionship, his home life is a delightful one. 
Here are an abundance of the books that he loves and to which 
he has found time to add a goodly number of his own writing, descrip¬ 
tions of outdoor and hunting life, biographies and histories, especially 
his “Winning the West,” his most ambitious work, devoted to the 
history of that great section of our land. 
Such is the home and home life of that great-souled, clean-lived, 
impulsive, energetic, enthusiastic lover of his kind—the honest and 
straightforward kind—the man who for years has battled fraud and 
corruption, with none of their mire clinging to him, the man of such 
broad aspirations and success-compelling genius that he has won the 
admiration, not only of his country, but of the world. 
We have already stated how, at the end of his first term of elective 
Presidency, he refused a renomination, not for rest, for the chief object 
he then had in view was to seek the wilds of Africa, and take his part 
in the hunting of big game such as America has none to match.
