    THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, AUGUST IS, 1910.
Unbidden Guest
Living on the hlU In the Went Farnam
neighborhood Is an unusually Intelligent
Boston bull terrier, who la devoted to her
tittle mlntre.
Tn' children of the neighborhood are
especially fond of entertaining their little
friends at afternoon tea parties, at which
dainty aandwlchei are served with miik
substituted for tea. At there events the
dog, who is sociable as well as Intelligent,
will follow the children's nurce until some
refreshments are also served to her.
Quite recently Topsy, the dog, developed
a keen appreciation of children's parties
and has exhibited stubborn determination
to attend them. This determination was
exhibited first at a children's party In cele
bration of the birthday of little Miss Vir
ginia and Master Ben Cotton. Topsy's mis
tress, little Miss Barbara Burns, was one
of the guests. Topsy seemed Intuitively to
know that there was to be a party, and
during the preparations to leave was rest
leas and excited. When her mistress
started . out for the festivity she paid no
heed to the command to stay at home, but
followed. ,
Twice she was started toward home, and
finally feigned to be obedient, but when
the nurse and Miss Barbara arrived at the
door of the hostess? house, they were dis
mayed to ' find ' that Topsy had preceded
them. ' .
Topsy, .forgivingly, welcomed them with
wag of the tall and Joyous ' bark. She
was glad to have them come, ' was deter
mined, however, to be included herself.
The reward for hr perseverance followed
later, when all' the assembled little folks
gleefully welcomed her to a hare- hv the
' birthday games.
Topsy was the belle of the party.
