A few of the little newsgirls are well known to down-town buincss men. One little Italian girl, not more than seven or oight 3'ear.s old, has a pretty little trick of her own.which ven- ofteii jirovc.s effective in .celling a paper or bringing forth the present of a coin. The hurried pedestrian on Nassau street, near Fulton, is surprised to feel a soft little hand clo.se upon his finger, and when he looks down a pretty but dirty little face is turned Mnilinglv up to his, and the child who troLs a!ong beside him holding his linger asks: 'Please buy a paper, mister?"' Even a rough man dislikes to break awav from tiie gentle grafcp of the small lingers, and the confiding smile and soft voice of the child almost invariably effect- a .iali:.

He told K reporter that his aunt, a wealthy and philanthropic maiden lady, had read the tale of the chivalrotts little Amazon, and desired to see her with a view to adopting her and giving her an education. Therefore the reporter and the gilded youth went forth to seek her. They found her in Ann street playing pitch-penny with four ragged boys. Ihis somewhat damp ened the ardor of the gilded youth.who decided to see his aunt again before bringing a gambler into the family. The aunt was of the opinion that a course of The Shorter Catechism would eradicate all desire for pitch pcuny front the child's mind and im bue her with a preference for sewing pitch-work wherein that estimable lady made one of the greatest mis takes of her life. The Tittle girl was infatuated with the idea of going to live iu a tine house, and her parents, who had half a dozen more children, were easily persuaded that it wculd be to her advantage. The philanthropic lady took the chile home, and she received "a bath and a new outfit of clothing. For the first dav she was perfectly happy with hei dolls; and but for "the fact that she brought in a strange dog from the street ami organized" a fignt between that animal and her benefactress' favorite cat in the parlor, her conduct was exemplar). The next morning she had to be washed by main force, and before night she was pining for the street and her old acquaintances. The following day she was miserable in spite of all attempts to amuse her, and at night she e-caped, exchanged her dress in a cellar in Ann street for one that allowed greater opportunities of ventilation and joined her old compan ions. She was ttvice taken back, and the last time .she remained a month, but her spirit was too wild to be tamed, and at pre-ent she i- .-elling papers at the Brooklyn Bridge entrance. Her case is an extrordinary one, however, for numbers of little girls who have been taken from the street have grown up to respectability when adopted into comfortable home.-. Many of tht-e children earn enough to hdp out the dome-tie finances con siderably. One little girl tin years old. who sell's papers in Park row, told the writer that .she made fifty cents some days, and that she was enabled to pay her own tuition at a parish school, be sidoi helping her mother. She is one of eight small children of a bricklayer who lives in a tenement house in Oak street, and she reads and writes re markably well. But it is a hard life the little ones lead, and he who heeds the timid appeal: "Please buy a paper," may always feel that he has not squandered his money, even if he should tell the small girl to keep the change from his dime or nickel. S. Y. Sun. i A NOVEL ORGAN. One Which In Iluili upun the Model or the lluiiiitii Throat. One of the greate.-t novelties shown at the Franklin Institute Exhibition in Philadelphia is the voealian organ. It has followed the process of producing sound which is peculiar to the vocal organs of men and animals, and by this method great sonority, purity and strength are obtained by more compact means than those employed in the pipe organ. In the voealian organ the wind is conducted into the wind'ehest, which represents the human lungs, by a wind trunk from thu bellows below. Lead ing out from this chest is a throat, re sembling the trachea, and a short dis tance within and across the throat is a peculiar reed, which performs the same function as the vocal chord in the human throat. The sound produced by the vibration of the reed meets with a contraction a little di.-tance further within the throat similar to that at the fauces, whence it enters into the mouth cavity. For low notes there are large throats and reeds and mouths a foot square and for high notes proportionately short throats and small reeds and mouths. In each mouth cavity is a round hole, corresponding to the nasal opening of the human sub ject and performing the same function for the voealian that the nostril does for the man, assisting the vibration and modifying or improving the quali ty of the sound emitted. Economy of space is one of the advantages of the voealian organ, the equivalent of eight hundred notes or pipes being packed in a compass not much larger than an upright piano. The instrument has three banks of keys, two and a half octaves of pedals and twenty stops, by means o5 which the sounds of all the instruments commonly imitated on pipa organs omi be reproduced. The ad vantages claimed by the voealian organ is that it remains in perfect tune. Pipe organs being subject to the influence of changes of temperature, their pitch va ries with heat or cold, and to the re fined ear they are seldom in perfect tune. The merit claimed for the voea lian is that certain of its stops are even liner than any known to the pipe or gan, and thatin the matter of power it is equivalent to the pipe-organ, except in the heavier bass notes, which, in the inventor's opinion, do not require a greater volume than that of the voea lian. Mr. Hamilton's invention is an altogether novel iiistrum-jnl, and is at tracting a great deal of critical atten tion. Cor. Chicago Sun. MEDICINE-TAKING. The Danger of THkliifc Too Mnnjr ToUnn nut Compound. Since there is a special tendency in most communities to take too much medicine, and to take it recklessly, it has not been the object to increase that tendency. While tho use and val ue of drugs are not to be denied, it is claimed that no ignorant person should ever dabble with them, remembering that the more active of them are active because they are poisons, or at least modifications of poisons, and if given injudiciously when not needed, or in too large doses, the poison element will appear. And here it is proper to refer to that absurd idea that disease is a monster, to be slain by the adminis tration of active poisons killed like any other monster, a tiger to be sub jugated. On the contrary, disease is but the absence of ease and health, a negative rather than a positive condi tion, the removal of which depends mainly on co-operating with nature, whose efforts are always in the right direction, thought not always effectual. All of these, in a certain 'sense, may be regarded as curative, though failure often results, either from the lack of sufficient physical foundation, from surrounding adverse circumstances or from an interference on the part of those who would cure, but who. on ac count of ignorance or falso ideas, intro duce diseord and false efforts. It may Ihj that such, foolishly believing that the more critical and dangerous the case, even when much reduced in vital force, the more powerful the dose de manded, act on this principle, and give the dose that might be safe, in ordinary cases, to persons of the same age and sex. exercising no discrimination, no judgment. Such should remember that those weak in body arc also weak in the stomach, as certainly unable to bear large doses as they are to perform hard labor. I have ecn many an adult to whom I would give no more than a strong boy slightly ailing could bear at the age of four years. And when such are dosed with no regard to their weak ness the sudden death is attributed to heart disease," while the intelligent know that but a very small percentage of the sudden deaths" arc caused by or ganic diseases of the heart. It is "alsc believed that prevention is better, easier, safer and cheaper than cure. Dr. Eanaford in Golden Utile.
