THE WORLD OF THE HEART.

6uch a big, big world with its moving life!
Such a big, big world with its care and strifel
Thousands passing us every day
TO whom, we never say aye or nay:
Heart throbs sounding almost in our ears,
Eyes raised to ours that are suffused with
tears;
The flag Of crime in the dark unfurled
In this big, big world.
4uch a small, small world Of which we arc
part!
Such a small, small world, the world of tho
heart!
For after all has been done and said,
Pages written and scrI ms read,
The world resolves itse:i into this
A woman's smile, n lovers kiss.
And those two souls in true union wrought
Give to its bigness no passing thought.
Little they care for the surging thronS.
Crowds never will in their world belong.
They hear the sob and note the sigh
And crime and starvation alike decry.
Yet the tiniest planet in infinite space
Would to them be equally MS great a place.
Love-, the magician, has changed 1t all,
And to them always the world seems small.

not do any harm with intelligent peo-
pie, but he is bad man To have mixing
with the poor ignorant, that are usually
attracted by his pr eaching. The best
thing our Florida friends can do with
Lynch is to give him unmistakable
orders to move on. and then to have the
word passed along to keep him and his
crowd on the move until they get down
into Mexico where they have no rclig-
ion to speak of and even Lynch's would
probably be an innovation.
