WHAT THE CIRCUS DID.
We were n quiet and sober set,
Llltlo accustomed to noise and fret,
Decent and modest at work or play,
And oh I so proper in every way,
Beforo wo went to the Circus I
Nobody had ever seen us go
At all loo fast, or at ull too slow
No matter how gnyly wo talked or sang,
Wo never had used a word of slung
Before 'o went to tho Circus I
We went to church, or wo went to school,
By lho very most orthodox kind of rulot
For wo were a people of Dutch descont,
And rather phlesmutlo of temperment,
Until wo wont to lho Circus!
Alns and alas I 'tis a Woful sight,
The way weure changed at the time I wrltel
Father is swaying against the breeze,
Hung by the toes from a high trapeze,
Trying to copy the Circus!
The boys 011 their hesds, with feet In air,
Are riding wild horses on each high choir
Or down on their backs on tho sidewalk
brick
Aro balancing tubs for a juggling trick ;
The girls hnve painted their hands, and face,
And got themselves up for an Indian roce,
As they saw them do at the Circus!
Mother high up on Ihe stable stands,
Swinging.lhe baby with both her hands,
Swincing the lmhy with ninny a tub,
And brandishing him like an Indian club I
While baby himself! n a lerribln fright,
Howls liko n Jiiilu from morn till night,
Since wo went to the Circus I
Alas and alns I 1 cm only say,
I wish In lho night, I wish in tho day,
I wish with my henrt,I wish with mv head,
I wish with my cnrs.whicli nroneorly dead.
I wish wllh a sort of mute despair.
I wish With a shriek that would rend Ijie air
Wo never had gono In the Circus I
IfiVe Awake.
AFTERJEABS.
)3Y ANNlB KDLAND.
It was n dewy, liczy morning in Sep
tember. Tho villngo s'reet lay dreamy
nnd quiet. I was bihily arranging my
littlo shop) rilibnus, lncfn, nnd meli
trifles hmst be nrnde to look ns lemptinc
na possible. This mnrninp; I felt partic
ulurly hnppy iu thus displnviua my
goods, and whrJn fill was done I stepped
luck proudly into my plensnnt sitting
room, where I had pretty lace curtaira
looped I nck from the windows, nnd over
them tasteful l imbrcqniES made Irdm n
rich silk of my departed glory nnd n
comforlnble loungo covered with a fabric
from the same honrdo.l store; still, rs I
watched my goldfish s.tiliug industrious
ly nliont in the globe, r.11 nrnnnd wbicb
flowers were blooming, I solilrqnized,
' W,!l. I nm just as much of a l.idy rti
Mrs. At-libnry, who lives in the mansion
With towers, nuddiives up tomy hnmlde
door in her splendid equipage, nnd
haughtily handles my boxes of ribbons,
but seldom finds nnylliitig which suits
her fastidious Instc. Yes, quite us much
of a lady!"
So I sal down contentedly in my low
rocker, nud hummed nn old, familinr
song cheerily ns I looked out on n fairy
form flitting gtvly nbont beneath the
maples, now taming scarlet nnd gold.
I was happyhappier than I bad been
for a long time.. I nodded gayly to Diisy,
and wondered what could be going (o
happen that I was so Unusually bright.
Oh, nothing, of course nt least, nothing
pleasant. Everything had hnppened ttnd
done happening me long ince. Then I
wandere,d off into the past, und remem.
bored lho old h'enrt-nche aud heart-break
of long ago.
What if Fred nnd 1 bad married? I
suppose I should hnve been n lady after
his fashion, shut up nil day long in snmo
gloony house, with no company but my
sorvnnts; fcBbionahlo Holitnrle in ft city
hnue, perlmps my husband away from
bpme most of the time. Yes I felt quite
inclined to forgive my qnondnm lnvrr
tint ho never married me. but took him
self off. So I had ceased to love him, aid
loved my little shop,
I am fond of color adore nil things
bnt are boanlifnl, Fred used to snv that
I una something ofnti nr'istj but then he
wis a greit flitterer In thos days. I am
delighted when th villnge girla come in
nnd view my prelly cooils, nnd glance
H1i nreh nnd bewitching smiles into the
mirror, as they try the effect of cardinal,
gold and I duo. I seldom dream of a
bright life nnw.for the truth istbat Daisy
leaves rao little time for building "castles
in Spain," If she were mv very own, I
could not love the child more. And this
reminds me. kind reader, that I must
tell vou the scret
About eight year) ago. I went to open
my windows oue morning, when, inn
bucket on my donrnlep, I found littlo
Daisy. Where did she come from? I
never know. All the esplinntion she
made was to reach out her dimpled arms
and coo something quite milnMligible
to mv nntnlnri d ear. Everybody com
mentnl Friendly advice mis not want
ing with regard to the foundling and or
pbnn nsylums Hut I did not take any
ndvice. I simply cured for aud loved tho
baby, until I think, had anyone come to
claim the child But (bat was altogeth
cr very unlikely, I comforted myself
by thinking. I should just as soon think
of Fred's coming bnok again soino d.iy,
nud Ihat is onj of tho Impossibilities.
Yes, Fred bad gone for good, as tho
children any. Oh, how happy we were
in the long ago! and I drew a tiny locket
from my bosom which always liy there
close to my lunrt and saw tha bright
eyia looking lovingly into mine, and Ihe
curly hair clustering about Ihe white
forehead. Yes; too happy to last, aa
Frod had said on the very last night we
were together.
To laat?" said I. "Why do yon speak
so, Fred?"
My heart gave n great bouud, for I
suddenly remember! the talk thnthirl
rwobl uiy wrs nlmut him. A Quo lady
had oome In board at the nllige hntil
I a beauty, I bad beard, with a fortune, at
her command, Fred hail undoubtedly
paid her some attention. "lie was en
tirely too attentive for n man already be
trothed," was Boon whlsperul hero aud
there by gossiping toilettes. Unt I bad
Unbounded confidence In him, and titver
Upbraided him upon the Btibj-ct. I think
ho would have tnid much more to me on
tiii, our last evening together, but sec
lug how his words hurt me, he remained
moody nud silent for awhile; then, Ink
ing me tenderly in his arms, he kissed
mo good-night, nnd. murmuring some
eicuso about leaving me so early, was
goue. I never stw him afUrwnrd.
Next morning it was found that he and
the entioiug beauly had gono together
whither, no one knew, net even Fred's
parents, who were ovi rcomo with grief nt
the conduct of tbiir once noble boy. Af
terward I beard of his marriage nnd his
mother's death. Then I worked day aud
night nnd tried In forget my sorrow, and
two years later Daisy came lo oheer my
lonely life.
Bnt a sharp tinkling of the bt II stop
ped my rcvery, nnd I I nitened into the
shop, where I was conlronted by n gen
tlemana rather unusual occurrence-
very tall and very broad; ho ns dretsed
In a suit of gray, wore n Rray hat, and
his hair, mustache and 1'iiig beard were
tineed wilh gray. He nske 1 frr some
Iriflj, and, whilo unking his selection,
watched me narrow lj ; but ho paid for
the article without sijing anj thing fur
ther, and (raised nut just us two or three
other customers eomo in.
For some time I wjs occupied. When
again at leisure, I happened to think of
the stranger nnd of Daisy I I hastened
to the window to call tho auild, vrhen
there stood tho "gray gentleman, " talk
ing pleasantly with her. I called to her
to come in. She obeyed, and the gentle
man followed her closely. I met them
inside tho store door.
'Pardon me, ma'am, but whose child
is this,?" inquired the Stranger,
I fiit my chi-iki burn painfully, but
promptly replied
"Mine, sir;"' nnd, turning to Daisy 1
whispered: "Bun up stairs, dear, until I
cit'l yon."
"Your ohild?" he questioned again.
"Y'es, sir; just the samons mine," said
I, trembling violently, and busying my
self about tbo countir. "But yon are a
stranger to me, nnd I have something to
attend to." And I poiuted biBuificantlv
toward tho door.
"In one moment," he returned, qniet
ly; "but I must know. Wasn't sho leit
with you some eight years ago?"
I was looking steadily into tho man's
face; something in his yoioa betrayed
him, nud now tho eyes grew strangely
familiar. I reeled forward, nnd would
have fallen at his feel, I do believe.tbo'igh
I never fainted in my lile. had not his
strong arm sivtd me.
' Sidney," ho whispered, "have I grown
so old, ugly aud gray, that you have
leally and tinly forgutUn uit?"
Ys; it was indeed Fred, comeback
iigiin! His wife hud eloped with a Span
iard, and died on her voyage to Europe,
less than threeyoars after their marriage.
"Aud I brought my little motherless
babe aud laid it at the door of the womuu
who once loved me, knowing of no other
to whom I could trnt.t the wee burden,"
explained Fred, "It may look like n
cowardly thing to have done, jet my
motives were pure. I knew your lonely
life, nnd that, could you learn to love the
child, sho would save you many a heart
ache. Is it not to? My punishment has
been almost greater than I could bear,"
continued he. "And now, Sydney, you
will not deny me one look nt my child,
and then, if you wish it, I will go nwny
and never return nny more. But listen,
Sidney, dearest," as I arose to call Daisy;
' I have not been idle nil these years. 1
have a homo and many comforts which
I offer you you and the child. Will
you, can yon, forgivo the bitter pastand
come aud live with mo be my little wife
just ns we planned iu the dajs long past?"
I couldn't mistake Fred's old manner
now. go I just laid my head on bis
shoulder, kissed his boarded cheek, nud
said
"Yes, Fred; wo will off with yon."
So we had n quiet wedding in tho old
church two months later, nnd everybody
was surprised to see tho little thop closed
