scented with the Jewel OF the SGD de-
gree.--The New Age.
II little care how tall you are,
Or II you're small, how small you are
The thing that matters most to me
Is not how big your body be,
Or how much cash you've stored

Or on the scales how much you
But how much soul you've set apart,
And what's the measure OF your heart,
And In your stock OF Shares Preferred
What Is the value Of your word?
II these be always kept at par
IL matters not how small you are
Nor on what lowly planes you press
