TWO FACES.

know little girl who has two faces,
When she is dressed up 10 her white
dress aud blue sash, and has on her blue
kid shoes, and around her neck string
Of pearl beads, then she looks 90 swes'
aud good that you would like to kiss her
For she knows that company is going tc
call en- ber mother aud she expects that
the ladies will say, "What little dsr'
ling" or, "What lovely curls !" or
"What . sweet mouth" and then kisa
her little red lips, and perhaps give hel
some sugar plums.
But when she ia alone with her mother
then she is sometimes very naughty. Il
she cannot have what she would like, Of
cannot do just - sue wishes, then sh'
will pout, aud cry, and scream; and NJ
one would ever think Of kissing sucl
ugly lips. And no Que would take be-
to be the little girl who behaved so pret
tly in company. So you see this littl'
girl hss two faces. One che uses in com

THE MAsEEK.BALL. - Last night, Teu.
tonia was out in great force with a strong
intermingling Of native American element,
these latter in name more than in fact, for
all present seemed to reflect the German
jollity and be fused into a happy whole.
But it seemed as if there was a population
from the court Of that eccentric ruler, the
DuchesSe de Ger0lSteiH, intermingling with
a cavaIcade of all sorts Of eccentric crea.
lures that could be imagined. There was
the "Greean Bend" hob nobbiug with
a bottle of Roback's Stomach Bitters there
was Turk smoking his marginal and being
orientalIy agreeable to the Daughter of the
Regiment with her silver fsgon and fragrant
"Kimmer;" there was q ferocious Bear
walking about on his hind legs like Lo.
ango Gorilla, and kept tractable by the whip
Of T.ipolitan driver; there were Queens
of Night and Ladies Of Honor, Waiting
gaily round the room with Chinese Clowns
and wild Indians. There was not small
sprinkling of citizens Of color, devils, old
huckster women with baskets, heralds,
lackeys, acrobsts, Scotch lessies and laddies,
and irrepressibes in fantastic make up, who
proceeded to make fun without stint. We
noticed one lady dressed very prettily as
Queen of Night, another after the style Of
the eccentric costume Of the bird cRtcher's
spouse (PdpdgenG) in ZduJertlete. There
was an eccentric costume consisting Of q
tight fitting suit covered entirely with play
ing cards. Then followed the long array
of eccentric carcstures, cardinals, priests,
monks, boot.blacks, tailors, Brother iona
thans, etc. To give q detailed account of
all the costumes would occupy too large a
space. AS the room was crowded TO excess
numbers of people we're present who were
not in costume, and the fun was enjoyed
| hugely by all. Everybody entered into the
spirit of the thing, trying to perpetrate as
many laughable, mischievous pranks as pos
sible upon the other under cover OF their
disguise. NCt one uhHaFlhoHIOus t'CuHi
stance occurred to mar the good feeling,
but everything went as "merry as marriage
bell" The dancing was kept up until
morning, with the exception of the interval
permitted for supper, and the jollity never
tagged. The society, we doubt not, netted
a pretty penny from the affair, and it was
an emphatic success otherwise.
1t is to be hoped that the Turner's will soon
be in funds sufficient to build spacious
hall of their own. The want of sufficient
room was sorely felt by the dancers last
evening, and we hope to see it remedied by
the time they hold their masquerade next
| winter.

DESERVED CoNPLiMENT.-C.M NJ. Osborn,
Esq, of Rock Island, was at Morrison,
Whitesde county, few days ago, transact,
ing some business in the county clerks
office. While there he heard the firm Of
Devoe Il Champion, ofthis city, highly COM
DIimented for the excellent blank books
which they had furnished that county.
Their work was superior in style and quality
and less in price than that furnished BY the
itinerant Chicago sharks who travel about
the country and impose their goods on the
public. We may say in addition, that the
printing for this work was done atthe ARGUS
offioe-the only place in Rock Island where
a first class job of printing can be done.
Messrs Devce & CHAMPION are doing q
good deal in the way of furnishing counties
with blank books, and in every case give
better satisfaction than any other house, in
Chicago or anywhere else.
