POETRY
DONT YOU WORRY. When jon pass along the street If by c!' aace a friend you meet, Aad he eeems to quite forget yon, Don't let that anacy or fret you; For perhaps his thoughts are wandering, Or his mind is deeply pondering O'er some great and solemn thome, And te walks as in a dream; Don't get angry in a hurry. Jaat £0 on and ' don't yen worry.' If, when going home from meeting, One or two forget their greeting, Don't be feeling Bad and sore, Yon Lave done the same before; If the person fails to shake yon
By the hand, don't let that make yon Bitter things of him be saying, For mayhap he's only praying; So don't let your eyes go ' blurry,' Just go en and ' don't you worry.' Many a one there iB to mtes you, Many a loving lip to kiss you, Many a loyal hand to clasp yen,' Many a friendly hand to grasp you; So don't mage if y your trouble, Or its size will soon be double; If you look for slights, you'll find them, But the best waj'a not to mind them, Nor be getting in a flurry; Just go on and' don't you worry.'
