he also loved his friends and
neighbors; he loved his fellow

nature, who loves the shrubs and

For love of nature, love of trees,
love of brooks and shrubs and

birds. love of children and love of
humanity. Choose not for com

"BEAUTIFUL TREES. y
By Hon. Wiley E, Jones.

"Let me see the trees. They
are so beautiful" These touching
impressive words were uttered by
President Mckinley, to his faithful
nurses, during the closing hours OF
his sufferings, as they were draw
ing the curtains near his bedside
and shutting out the light of the
sun and the cheering sight Of ma
ture. In a pleading voice to the
few silent watchers about him,
even as death was drawing nigh,
the dying man said: "Let me see
the trees. They are so beautiful" F"
How pitiful How pathetic. And
yet, how sweet and tender. He
who had been successful in. the
political strifes Of his country, the
companion of great men, the hon
ored head Of great nation, un-
mindful of past conflicts, of his
many victories and of worldly
honors, his fading eye turns to his
watohfnI nurses as his faltering
voice pleads: LET me see the
trees. They are so beautiful"
Earthly trials and tribulations,
the conflicts Of an honorable life,
worthy triumphs and honors were
receding from the scene, in the
last hours of this good man, and
the innate, all-possessing life long
love of nature, simple, sweet and
beautiful, was asserting itself.
What an impressive lesson to
those of us who possess the heart
to read it Alright. In the closing
earthly hours, how the frail NOR
tai, weary of the strifes and strug-
giles of active life, turns to Nature,
as a tender, loving and relieving
Mother. In the final hours of
worldly existence, how strifes and
struggles, defeats and victories
shrink and vaniah away, Hnw
the weary motal turns from them
all the sweets of nature and the
love of friends.

reared among the trees. Among
the trees he had played when
child. Among the trees he had

Among the trees be
