And he will claim his own.

ANSWER BY MRS. TAYLOR.

There is, we find, a class of folks

Opposed to our cremation jokes:

’Twere vain for us to try to coax

Them out of cinder-ation;

For furnace heat they sigh at heart,

They’d ape the goose or gander part,

Or baked like pudding, pie, or tart,

Be dessert of creation.
