A Doggerel on Past Memories and Future Advice Backward, turn backward, O Time in your flight And bring back past memories just again tonight So I may tell my friends in what a lix That I got into with my appedixl As the same thing may happen unto you, Now listen! and I'll tell you just what to do: I think it was six years ago, or more, That my appendix got to be very sore For what cause, to me, he would not explain, But still he caused me a great deal of pain. l-le made me roll and tumble so in bed Until I would just as soon have been dead. I linally told him that he must go: I wouldn't keep a fellow that would do me so. l-le pleaded so hard for me to let him stay And said he'd never again be in my way. As I had been taught to always forgiye I thought I'd try again with him to live. For a long while things were calm and sereneg The promises he made I thought he did mean: Until one evening-'twas just before night- He decided he'd try to get up a light. I reasoned and plead the very best I could, But nothing I said would do any good. So in that light we had a hard tumble. Hut in a few days he gfrt very humble. .Xnd claimed that he was only in fun. And was sorry, indeed, for things he had rl-rne. He asked me again to please let him stay: I told him no! tltat he was in my way, l went to Dr. Edward Prince by name. .Xnd found him to be KING in surgical fame' I told him frankly of the trouble l'd lead. He said: Young man. your appendix is had: If you will allow me. l'll speak very plain. I would not partnership with him again. The doctor's advice l at once did take. And told him all his arrangements t-w make To sever the partnership close and clean. For the little rascal had been so very mean. So in ten minutes our partnership was f-yer. .-Xnd I felt like a pig rolling in cloyer. Advice unasked for we so often f -.'t- rget. Then later on we may sometime regret. Now the words that l speak will you please lived? If a good surgeon you should ever need Go to Doctor Prince as quick as you canf I-Ie's KING. not Prince. as a surgical man -From R1-oni X
