"What has become of Miss Brown 7"
l ventured to inquire.
Well she amt very far away from
here.''
Not far from here.''
Miss Mandy broke into laugh.
Why, Mr. Courtnay, you don't real
ly mean to say that you don't know
that 1 I'M Rosey Brown, and that's my
portrait ?"
L could do nothing but stare at her
incredulously.
"To-be-sure, time and trouble and fe-
yer and ague, do change person. pro-
ceeded the lady, in depreciating tone;
but 1 thought anybody could see the
likeness"
L looked up, and, sure enough, there
now dawned upon my perception
ghost-like resemblance between the two
faces. But how could / otherwise have
ever suspected itp"
They used to call me Rosey for pet
name," proceeded Miss Brown, coquett-
ishly, " because they said L looked so
blooming. But it came to be awkward
in time, SO dropped it in time for my
real name of Amanda. Why, Mrs.
Bowling and all of 'em could have told
you that was Rosey Brown, and Pm
sure thought everybody knew the por-
trait was mine"
was too much shocked to reply.
Here had L been searching for weeks for
the original of that picture, only to find
her where had first seen hereunder the
picture itself. And now that she was
found, my dream of romance vanished !;
nor could even the thought of her newly
added golden charms revive my interest
in Miss Rosy Brown.
How she received her change of for
tune do not know, for 1 left the "piny
woods" inn before the news reached her,
doing her the good turn to communicate
her whereabouts to Mr.. Walters; and
SO my romantic trip about a picture
remained to me g A FOOLS Errand."

Mr.. Grimn's Smart Dog.

THE omaha Bee, says: There is
4 dog on the corner of Brancroff
street and Willow avenue, Council
Bluffs, which recently displayed such
marked detective ingenuityas to certain
ly merit notice, if not a star. This saga
cious animal belongs to M. o. Griffin.
1t seems that Mr.. Griffin was awakened
in the night recently by the barking of
his dog in the yard. He got up, took
his revolver, and went down there
Not seeing or hearing anybody, Mr..
Griffin repaired to his room and retired.
But still Leo kept up his growing and
barking something louder than before
Mr.. Griffin again arose, went down
stairs, and stepped out into the yard,
with revolver in hand. The dog ap-
preached him, licked his hand and then
ran and leaped over the fence. The dog
apparently meant his master to follow
him. This Mr.. Griffin did. He follow
ed the dog to the cellar door of his store
and found that an entrance had been
effected by breaking the hasp off the
same. Mr.. Griffin entered the cellar,
and, Notwithstanding he missed moth
ing, he knew some one had been in the
cellar and had tried to get into the store
above. At this Leo was satisfied and
ceased barking for the night. The next
morning Mr.. Griffin's attention was
called to loud barking by Loe, He step
ped to the front of his store. The dog
had stopped man on the sidewalk and
would not allow him to pass. The gen.
tleman-at-large told Mr.. Griffin that if
he didn't take care of his dog he would
shoot him. AT this juncture Mr.. Grif-
fin invited him inside and there took
the liberty of accusing him of breaking
into his store the night before. The
man said he was insulted by such base
insinuations, and started for the door,
when Leo followed him out and kept
up his barking. Mr.. Griffin was so
sure that he was not mistaken that he
reported the case to Police Headquarters.
The man was arrested and taken before
Squire Burke, where he confessed that
the dog had found him out, and that he
had tried to break into the store, but
Leo had kept him from accomplishing
his purpose. He remarked that he
would leave Council Bluffs immediate
ly and go over to Omaha, where he did
not believe that the dogs could be SO
highly educated.

A few days since 1 came across de-
scription of some of the peculiarties of
Thomas Dowse, whose library is now in
the Massachusetts Historical rooms. He
lived and died in Cambridge, and was a
leather-dresser, bachelor, and peculiar
besides. He used to pull wool In a
ruf1ed shirt, buy books, and speculate
upon philosophical truth and great
problems of existence. At fifty he was
going to marry, but learning that the
young lady was engaged to his partner,
he invited her to ride to Boston, where
he left her In the streets to look out for
herself. She never married, AID finally
died in the poor-house. His library con-
