 \mbox is for single-line text only.  How about using a tabular?
      \documentclass{article}
     \begin{document}
     \begin{tabular}[t]{@{}ll@{}}
       First Line \
       Second Line
     \end{tabular}
     \end{document}

thank you....  (if and) When i get serious about
glueing  1stLine and 2ndLine together, i may end up using Minipage.
