After three days spent by the two in making elothin pected stranger, for which the McMinn woman furnished the cotton, they set out in search of the charity of which the woman was so sorely in need. First to the Lying-in Mospital, “Lf you will bring your marriage-eertiticate and pay $5 a week,” was the reply, “we will take youin.?

The Jutter picture is finished with all the tenderness and delicacy characteristic of Mr. Brooks’ work, and is the more remarkable as itis drawn from a faded duguerrotype taken over forty years ago. The fine collection of paintings still on exhi- bition at O'Brien's gullery has attracted the ut- tention of a great muny lovers of art during the past week, and those who have not already protited by this display of unusual merit should not fail to do so before the removal of Mr. 2 pham's tine cattle pictures, which have borne no small part of -the attraction.
