Not When Pm Dead.

The following little poem from the pen
OF Fred H. Yaple, a son of ex-Congress-
man Yaple, will voice the sentiments of
many who are weary of watching life
struggles without kind word or even
thought to help In the every day trials,
while the coffin that holds the pulseless
form and the mound beneath which the
tired heart rests are heaped with flowers:
In your garden many roses,
Some of them are white and some are red
Really, am very fond of roses
But want them now, not when I'm dead.
Don't wait to show me your affection
When the earth is piled above my head
In your garden there are many roses,
But want them now, not when I'm dead.
Why wait until my labor's ended,
Don't you think it better if you said:
please accept this little bunch of roses
You want them now, not when you are dead. !"
For In your garden there many roses
And their blossoms like sped;
Really, I am very fond Of roses, -
but want them now, not when I'm dead.
