PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

TERRE HAUTE, »KPT. :W, lb7U.

TWO FACES. BY MIL*. K. A. I*EKCY.

I have so strange a thing to tell, Yon hardly will believe it But aa it is tne very truth, 1 liopc you'll, so receive it. Ttsot a little girl 1 know.

Who ha* two different :aces, ... Ana yet they're not, an you might think, In two quite separate places.

No, both of them are in one place, Quite close to one another But Mill when one of them you see,

You can now see the other. Bv win« Ktrange trick this little lass Keeps one face always hidden, And only that one comes in sight,

Which by her will is bidden.

Thi-re's one of them that seems to me The loveliest of faces Ti* beautiful to look upon,

And full of charming graces Bo fair and sweet and kind It is, Ho cheerful, bright and sunny, I would not sell that precious face

For a whole world of money. This face my lassie always wear*, When she l« good and pleasant And oh! how glad I always am,

When that dear face is present. Such a delightful thing it is. I wLsh 'twould stay forever, And then the other face she has,

Would come back before me never

For tnatV the face we always see, When she Is cross and fretful, And when of all lior pleasant looks.

She Mollis to be forgetful, And bids the naughtier face appear, 80 dark and so unclieerful Bo puckered up with scowls and frowns,

To look at it l» fearful.

Oh 1 how wish this gloomy face, Hhi' could keep always hiddeu, And that for it to come in sight,

Would be a thing forbidden Ah then I should not care so much, Though she did have two faces, If never of the ugly one

Could 1 see any traces.

HIE STRANGE COURTSHIP OF A RETIRED CIRCUS MAN.

Santa Cruz, California, is called the Long Branch of the Pacific. It was a

principal hotels discussing plans for making a pleasure trip the next day. They had come to the seaside in search of health, they said, and found love as woll, for every lady, with a single exception, had a gentleman by her side.

The lady who sat alone was tho handsomest as well as tho haughtiest of the group, and appeared to be vexed. 1 will not consent to it," she said in an irritated tone. "Just because you know 1 disliko the man, yon all seem determined to force his society upon me."

But, Miss Winstantly.' said Mr. Kadelifle, one of the curled darlings of Han Francisco. "There is no other gentleman who can be your cavalier." "I see that," she interrupted with a sneer, "but don't distress yourself about 1110. Thore is no necessity for my going, so I shall remain at the hotel."

No, no," arose from the lips of eighteen people. We won't go without you," said Miss Stevens. "Do be amiable for this once. It's our last party, and don't broak it up." "Grandfather" Sanderson next took the word he was called grandfather because, although but twenty-six years old, a few gray hairs already appeared in hi* raven locks.

I can't see for the life of mo," he said, "why you should object so strongly to George Blake. Ho is frank, upright anu open handed."

Al*o smells of the sawdust," replied Miss •Winstantly, with a most provoking 0tiil of the lip.

Uxclainaliotw of reprobation from every one, for the gontleman under discussion was a universal favorite.

Come now, Kate," said Emily Lytle. "that's ungenerous. I've understood that he was born—in—that class of life and of course cannot be blamed, as he availed himself of tho first favonfblo opportunity to leave it. Ho merits respect and not contempt."

There was such a murmur of approbation at this little speech, that oven the proud and fastidious Kate felt somewhat ashamed and hung her head.

The only ameuds you can make for being soiiard on him is to consent to bo his partner for the day." "So.no.

Apart from his former dis-

erfio«'lul life, I detest the man," replied Kate. Then," said Sanderson, "you must be punished for ahowiug such bad tastq. We'll bave/t show of hands. Attention ladies and gentlemen. AH those in favor of Miss Winstantly being escortod by Mr. Blake to-morrow will please aise hands."

V.verv soul did so with the exception o( Kate hetvclf. who rose instantly and hurried away, blushing with confusion and anger.

treats blui so upishly, and the first word would make him lly th0 track. H—sh1" said ovory one. In tne^HQjoining parlor Kate had struck the "rFt chords of a popular song, and a* her rich voico rolled out on the balmy air, the ex-athlete strolled up to the merry party on the piazza, and like them listened sp«!l bound to the tones he loved so

^The song ceased, and alter a moment's pause, she bepan a duet, expecting, no doubt, that Sam Williams, who usually sang with her, would take it up outside. Instead of which he nudged Blake, who immediately, as it irresistibly, began in a round, rich voice, the like of which the disdainful maid had never heard before, but supposed it was Sanderson, or one of the rest. How exquisitely their voices blended only hers was untrained,while his had all the culture of an opera singer. Indeed, many of his hearers won dered if ever he had been a professional singer as well as athlete, and thought what a loss to the public was such a voii'o.

Every one enjoyed the singing, and was especially amused at the thought that Kate was unconsciously pouring out her whole heart in united melody with tho man she professed to despise.

Did she? 01 all that group of young men, California's finest, freshest sons, George Blake was beyond cavil the Adonis. Although, in reality thirtytwo years of age. his exceedingly fair complexion and light brown hair made him look vears younger. There was not a line on tho broad, white forehead, nor a crow-foot around thei limpid violet eyes. "Where did such* low fellow get such heavenly eyes?" Kate asked herself the next morning, as she drew on her riding cloves. lie was over six feet tall, an 1 might have been just a trifle heavy for the rinc, but for everything else his proportion* were splondod. All that the proud beauty and belle, Mis3 Winstanly, urted against him was true, except that he was "low." Nature had made him a gentleman, though of low birth and iron fortune. Ten years prior to th opening of this story Biake had come to California with a circus troupe he was Signor Francesco Sellterino, the "strong man of the company. He vaulted with the rest, but his specialty was firing a caunou otF his breast, lifting a dozen men at once, and other immense weights. He was of an old circus family, and

Look, look, Miss Winstanly, is not that a picture painted by God's own hand •"On, yes," she replied, in an ungracious aiid contemptuous tone "but I never gush— it is not 'good form.'

The insolence of the spoiled beauty 'stung him to the very heart's core, and the pangs of despised lovo and sudden anger caused bitn to forget himself, and he retorted with restrained passion. "Miss Winstanly, be pleased to remombcr that if I have by my presence again placed it in your power to insult me, it was at vour request."

Thev had 'trotted along until they reached the beautiful stream—in other 'countries it would be called a river— which heads at the big trees and flows down the canyon to the sea. The precipice was sheer and steep.

This lucky stroke determined him to retire from the sawdust, and he soon developed a business talent which in a few years, made him a prominent and influential man in Frisco, while his character as a man, and exceedingly polished manners, won him the respect of everybody except tho wayward beauty

whom he had set bis heart. It remained for her to drag up and taunt him with tho old trade, never alluded to by anybody now, except as a bit of personal history, and never to his discredit.

When tho morning after tho conversation on the balcony, the party of twenty assembled, sunrise was tinging the red woods and tiie wild bowers. They •wore going to picnic at the big trees on tho powder mill road.

They were soon in tho saddle. As Kate glancid disdainfully at her companion, her heart lairlv ached as she thought that he was too handsome for a man, and if he had been anything but a horrid low circus creature, even a respectable hod carrier—butshe would die beforo she would marry such a fellow.

And ho thought, she looks more like a goddess than a mere woman. I would lay my body under her feet, and let her crush my life out, if she would but smile on mo

She had on previous occasions snubbed bim BO terribly, that they rode along time in silence before he ventured to begin a conversation with her but when they reached the crest of the hills overlooking Santa Cruz, and he glanced across tho bay, and saw the fleecy, suntinted clouds hovering over tho Monterey range, an exclamation of delight escaped him, and he said with enthusiasm:

At last, repoits were brought to her that he wtfs improving, was able to talk aud at length to sit in an armchair, but ho never alluded to the accidont, nor mentioned Miss Winstanly's name.

Day after day she plied Emily with questions, and a fierce despair seized her when she comprehended that she had lost him—and through her own pride. That was all swept away by her newborn love and humility. She wasso abject in her. remorse and sorrow, that to obtain a smile from her despised "clown" as she had called him, she would gladly have turned circus rider herself.

One day she crept to his door. It was closed against her, but she could hear Emily's voice, and RadcliflTs talkiug with Blake. She alone was shut out from paradise, but she had deserved and must bear it. In a fit of silent tears she sank down on her knees and offered up a prayer that she might yet obtain his forgiveness suddenly the door opened and Emily came out, shutting it quickly after her when she saw tho crouching girl. "Why! what's this?" she inquired, asionished. "What do you mean, Kate, by crouching around on all fours like this

Oh, Emily," sobbed the wretched beauty, "I am perfectly miserable! I must, I will go in and see him! It was all my fault! Do you think he will over forgive me?"

Emily grasped her arm, saving, "But mind you don taunt him about his past any more. He proved himself a gentleman, and above all remember it was only because he was au athlote, that he was able to hold your horse until he could wrench you lrom the saddle and toss you out of danger. No other than a strong man could have saved your life. So go in aud humble yourself to him." She opened tho door and culled Iladeliffe out. They strolled off together, while Ivato glided into the room aud flung hersell at the leet ol (he ex-athlete.

NOVEL READING'i

Fortunately for the youth of the present generation the old prejudice against novels has disappeared, having been done away not more by a change ol opinion as to the propriety of reading fiction at all, than by the great change in the character of the novel, which has become, on the whole, not only pure and moral itself, but a power in behalf of purity and morality. Very few persons are now so austere in their religious views that they forbid reading in their families, or eschew it altogether themselves. From the old point of view they are right. Novel writers nowadays are, with very rare exceptions, morally harmless, whilo to the inexperienced they teach many useful lessons. Neither do novels overtax the mind. There is probably no condition of existence, out of sleep, which is so little an exercise of the mind as that of novel reading. The person engaged in it sits without exertion of any kind, and has a certain quantity of pleasant exeitement poured into him by tho author through the eyes. That is all. He is intellectually, no less than physically, as passive, as a cup that is filled from a pitcher. Unless he reads to criticise and reflect, which is not the case one ti

Indeed, the snake seemed rather to thrive on the medicine, poisen being his best hold About this time he heard of the eminent Italian physician, Dr. Gonzales, of Paris, and in full faith that he would be cured by him, lieutenant Crawford sailed for France, where he arrived in due time. Dr. Gonzales made an examination, and for the sum ol $500 agreed to operate on the patient by incision in the back, and then remove the cause of this living death. Crawford assured him that ho wished thdoperation performed, even at tho risk of his life, as death itself was preferable to the terrible pains and horrible sensations he was continually undergoing. The arrangements having been made, Crawford was strapped to the table, tho surgeon and his assistants were all ready, the knife was lifted above the bare flesh, btit suddenly it flashed across the mind of this most skillful and eminent physician that he was assuming a fearful responsibility, and the instrument was stayed, and the fee refunded with a liberal addition, and Liout. Crawford left Paris sick at heart, as well as in body, with his terrible burden. The animal, the reptile, or whatever it is, has now grown quite large—equal in size to those he saw in the wilds of Cuba—and most of the time is dormant, but at times, as if craving for food, it writhes and turns, causing excruciating pains, at which time its serpent form is plainly to be seen. When this occurs, nothing seoms to appease it but enormous quantities, of vegetable food. Mr. Clark and others will testify that Lieut. Crawford ate three mi:ricef-ba*kttfuls of watorcresses, grass, etc., within a very short period

This remarkable case has been exam ined by the faculty of the medical colleges at New York and St. Louis, and by many of the most noted surgeons, all agreeing that there is no relief for the sufferer. Crawlord has given Dr. Gonzales. of Paris full authority to make a post niorlom examination of his body after death, that eminent practitioner considering it one of the most remarkable cases on record and we quite agree with him.
