to the ancient method of supply. At all
hours Of the morning l have met on the
highways away out in the suburbs sober
droves of a half-dozen cows accompanied
by half-dozen muzzled calves as they

into the customers house, secures the

Hand Organs.

Hand-org9ns, writes correspondent
OF the Troy Times are a modern infic-
tlon, and have introduced the monkey,
which is a feature formerly unknown in
mendicant minstrelsy. The monkey, in
deed, is so amusing that one almost for
gets the organ grinding while watching
MS antics. These animals are worth
irom $40 to $50, according to their train
ing, and when an Italian owns his organ
ana monkey he is really well-to-do in the
world
The best hand-organs cost from 800
70 Sl5O, but those which so commonly
torment the public rarely cost more than
S4V. The best are the flute organs, and
they play nearly dozen tunes, and some
nave extra cylinders, which add to their
capacity. The principal factory is in
Ooatham street, this locality being so
near the Italian quarter Baxter street,
mat 1t Is very favorable to trade. There
are some Italians who own a number Of
Oi5ans' which they rent by the season at
large profit and with but little loss.
The grinder having finished his summer
ltnerancy, of course comes back for win.
lef quarters, and thus pays his rent.
DO'n organ grinders and boy fddlers
nave their regular routes, which they re.
peat year after year, and there seems tc
De some general arrangement which pre-.
vents interference. 1t is said that more
'nan 800 of these peripatetic minstreIs
nave gone from New York this season

What II, while sit here a'one,
A voice / have not heard for years
Should gr ct me in the low sweet one
That once was music to my ears;
And should start from memory's sway
And, turning, find you sitting there
Unchanged, as though 'twere yesterday
Your feet went tripping down the sta Il
Or il, upon some summer day.
Mid song OF birds and hum Of bees,
Ishould go down the woodland way
To our old tryst beneath the trees;
And, starti g back in glad surprise,
should behold you waiting th re,
The Cd light shining in your eyes
The sunlight tangled in your hair
In vain shall not see the glow
OF wine-brown eyes or catch the smile
OF ruby l'ps; but yet know
That you are near me all the while.
For / so loved you in that ran
or sunny years that my poor heart
Would bleed afresh AMI count it TRANCE
To think God held II, far apart.
And so, when evening sha lows creep
And night falls softly DER the lea.
You touch my eyelids and sleep,
And sleeping, dream Of heaven and thee
And when some summer morn shall break
That finds me chilled by deaths cold dew,
You need but kiss me, shall wake,
And waking be in heaven with you.

Jugs.

The origin Of Jugs dates back to an
tiuqity. Yet we have all discovered
that the jug, whose appearance is the
most antiquated, does not always belong
to that rather engmatic period. The
history of "Thc Little Brown Jug is
quite as ancient as most people care to
go back to investigate. Lately there has
been a great breeze raised over jug
called "The Peacfbiow Vase" In artistic
circles, its sale for eighteen thousand
dollars will mark an era. Yet to most
people in this world there are many
things better "by jugful." The jug
is most singular utensil A pail, COB
let, or a jar may be rinsed, and you can
satisfy yourself by optical proof that the
thing is clean; but jug has little hole
in the top and the interior is all dark
ness. No eye penetratcs it, no eye can
move over its surface. You can clean
it only by putting water into it, shaking
it up, and pouring it out. If the water
comes out clean, you judge you have
succeeded in purifying the jug. In this
the jug is like the human heart; no
mortal eye can look into the recesses,
and you eau only judge Of its purity by
what comes out Of it.

The Great Question of II, Day.

following words in an address delivered
at the dedication Of the Mcdowell mon
umcnt:
Young men Of America, listen to tb,
voice Of one who has grown old in hi
profession, and who Will probably nevel
address you again, as he utters partins
word Of advice
The great question of the day is moi
this operation or that, which have re
fcctcd so much glory upon American
medicine, but preventive medicine, thu
hygiene Of our persons, our dwcllinga
our streets, in word, our surroundings.
whatever or wherever they NAV be
whether in city, town, hamlet or coun.
try. and the establishment of efficient
town and state boards of health, through
whose agency we shall b. more able tc
prevent the origin and fatal effects OF
what are known as the zymotic or pre-.
ycntable diseases which carry so much
woe aud sorrow into our families, and
often sweep like hurricanes over the
earth, destroying millions Of human lives
in an incredibly short time.
"The day has arrived when the peo.
pie must be reused to a deeper and more
earnest sense Of the peoples welfare, and
suitable measures adopted for the pro-
lection as well as for the better develop
ment Of their physical, moral and intel
lectual powers. This is the great prob
lem Of the day, the question which you,
as the representatives Of the rising gen
Grafton Of physicians, should urge. in
season and out of season, upon the item
ton of your fellow citizens; the qucs
ton which, above and beyond all others,
should engage your most serious thoughts,
and elicit yourmost earnest cooperation.
When this great object shall be at
tanned; when man shall be able to pre-
vent disease, and to reach, with little or
no suffering, his thrce-score years and
ten, so graphically described by the
Psalmist then, and not until then, will
the world be paradise
