daily routine is TO start out carly In
the morning from his beautiful home on
Fifty-sixth street, New York. for his
farm at Tarrytown-o on the Hudson and
spend the day there, returning about
half past 8. I'm time for dinner.
How the life he leads has benehted
him is best learned from little Incl
dent he related to me just as 1 was
leaving his house. He said that about
five years ago he was taking a trip
through the southern states on a pri-
vate car with a party of gentlemen.
When they arrived at Atlanta, they fol-
lowed the route OF Sherman's army 10
the sea. One day they stopped at the
small town of Lexington. Ca, as the
guest OF Colonel Eccles, well known
member OF the bar OF the state.
When he was introduced 10 Colonel
Eccles, that gentleman said. Mr.. Bon
ner. do you still keep any of the famous
horses your father used to own?" Ev-
cry one laughed, including Mr. Bonner.
The gallant colonel blushed and stam-
nered. not knowing what break he had
unlntentionally made. Some one told
him that this was Mr.. Bonner, Sr.. and
Mr.. Bonner then owned up TO 20 years
of life. Today he Is hale and hearty,
with n clear eye and steady stride.
He walks several miles each day and
would easily pass FOR 60 or even less.
