Under the title of •'Picking up * Living,” Mr. James Greenwood, th 0 “Amateur Casual,” writes to the Lon don Slsw the tollowing account of a scene in the English capital: The manufacture of toys has is modern timee become an important branch of the trade. Whole districts in Germany and Switzerland are em ployed in the production of Kokh’s arks, and dolls’ “tea things,” and snefi like goods, and according to the last “Pest- Office Directory” returns, goodness knows how many persons are returned as dolls’ “eye” and “wig” makers. Bat these are toys unkuown in Leather Lane. It is a market place for struggling poverty, arid its toys are expressly con trived to suit the taste and means of the population. Miss Spangled ilia, with her wonderful trimmings and laces, and a marvellous mechauical contrivance in the region of her stomach that causes her to emit unearthly sounds when pressed to do so, may be all very well for the West Ehd market, but the “in dustrious washer'oman,” as the seller persists in calliug her, better suits Leather lane, because the contempla tion of that ingenious toy, besides amusing, teaches a practical lesson against idleness. It is made out of spring wood, and the litubs of the “washer omaa” are jointed with tugs of strings, and her arms are made to ap pear as though immersed in the tuo ; and when a bobbiu at the back is agi tated, she at once commences to wash it in the most energetic manner. This, it may be assumed, is for the little girls of Leather lane, since for little boys there is a companion toy known as the “hard working cobbler,” contrived on the same principles, and depicting an opera five of the cordwaiuifig persuasion strain ing till he squints in a very horrible manner, as be stretches out his arms over sewing a shoe sole. The hard-working cobbler and the washerwoman mu\ lie bought, at the low price ol a half-penny each, and. there are eight joiuts in -each figure, which is painted in various colors. “I make ’em myself—least-ways, me and my old woman do," the cobbler man informed tne, with a rueful face, be cause of the slakuess of trade, and with out desisting from jerking the string attached to the figure in hw Hand. “Sometimes she sells and I makes, and sometimes I sells and she makes.'!’ “How many can you make in a (lay ?” “What, sticking hard at it ? why, I'd w rrant to make five do2en ; and out of that you may safely set the wood down nt sixpence.” “Which leaves two shillings for your day’s work ?” “When they're sold it do,’’"replied he, jerking the poor washerwoman- spite fully, and compelling her to duck down her head in an agoniz J manner. “They won't go off to night ; me and my old woman set up all last night making, wanting a shilling extra, it being Christmas time, and she’s out selling, too. If she ai’ut got uo better luck than I Lave, there’ll be no tear of our plum pudding biliug over and put ting the fire out. A sorry manner of picking up a living this, my friends 1 “But here, alas! is a sorrier. ‘Dolls’ hi,uses a t.-irdeu each I only a furden 1 with a roglcr winder and a door wliut'll open and shut.’ This time an old wo man, with ns many dolls’ houses as made a heap, us they stood before her, at least three feet long and as high as her waist. The bouses were built of pastel card and brushed over with some sort of gum, and then sprinkled with red sand, which gave them quite a pretty appearance; and besides this, each huii two chimney pots and a win dow and a street doffr, with a knocker and a knob painted on it, and yet they were only a farthing each. I inquired how many her stock numbered, ana she told me that she had fifty when she came out at dinner time (it was now about seven in the evening), and she supposed she Lad about thirty-six left. ‘ So that when you have sold out you will have taken a shilling and a half penny in all ?’ ‘When I’ve sold out, yes.' ‘And what does the material cost you ?' ’Nothing; my gals go round to the paper warehouses of mornings at sweep ing time, and haves the old cardboard give 'em. Leastways, there's the gum and the sand to buy; but that ain’t much.’ ‘But who makes them while you an; out selling?’ ‘My gals and the old wari; he can tdo much a laying on his back, eat up with rheuinalics, but be generally puts in the windows.’ But do you mean to say what you can earn out ot dolls' houses is all you have to sup port the family U ‘Oh, no, sir; thank Cod, it’s not so bad as that, lv’e got a boy, sir, as good a chap as here and there one, and he brings home bis six siiii.ings as regular as clock work. So you see sir, we makes a do of it some how, and thank God it’s no worse. Ihe dolls house woman provided me with so much to think about, that all the way home I had uo eyes for any other unfortunate engaged in pickiu" up a living." ° r Very Cheap.—From an exchange we learn that the Major ol a certain town in Ohio, lately “spliced” a couple, for which he received tbe enormous sum ol seten'y five cents I This reminds us ot the old epigram: A lovo sick pair who had only a dollar, pay tbe priest for a conjugal collar, Were told by the par.ou, bis regular Ice For marrying people was always a “V." 1 a y, tbon,” quoth the swain, “good par *ou come, A doHar I’m sure, ought to marry us some; ,*‘ l I have got; you can take it you KQOW, And uihrty us as far as Ihe money will go.

A ND AFTER A THOROUGH TRIAL EA. by innumerable living witnesses, has proved itself to be THE MEDICINE OF THE AGE. Although there hove been many mcd;ci nal preparations brought before the public since the first introduction of Perry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer, and large’amounts expended iu their introduction, the Pain Killer has continued steadily to advance in the estimation of the world as the best family medicine ever introduced. As au internal and external remedy, it is truly a sourcc.of Joy to the World! One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, and upon its own merits, as the proprietors have not resorted to advertising to gain for it the rank it. now holds among the great number of preparation? of the present time. The effect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Coughs, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dys entery, and other affections of the system, has been »ruly wonderful, and has won for it a name among medicinal preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pains, as an external remedy, in cases of Bnrns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Stings of insects, and other causes of suffering, has secured for it such a host of ns an almost infallible remedy, that it will be handed down to posterity as one of the greatest medical discoveries of the nineteenth century. The magical ef fects of the Pain Killer, when taken according to directions, are certain. You have only to be sure that, you buy the genuine article aud adhere to -the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medicinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is now put up in panel botiles, with the words Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer blown in tbe glass: and with two steel engraved Labels on each bottle—one an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, tho original inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved note of baud. None others can be relied upon us genuine. Prices of bottles 12J cents, 25 cents, 50 cents, aud sl, respectively. Valuable Medici e —Wo presume no medical preparation ever offered to the pub lic has been more thoroughly tested than PERRY DAVIS’ PAIN KILLER. Thou sands of persons, were they called upon to do so, would cheerfully testify that they have used it for various ills, with the most satisfactory success. It is within our own knowledge that an immense amount of suf fering has been relieved by it. Its pro prietors, Messrs. Perry Davis A Son, save no pains or expense in order to satisfy the public. Being strictlj honorable men, they observe the utmost uniformity in the man ufacture of their celebrated Pain Killer. The materials of which it is composed arb carofully selected—none but the best quality being used. By these means tho high repu tation which tbo Pain Killer has long since acquired is, at all times, triumphantly sus tained. In view of these facts,"Wo are by no means surprised to lcaru that Mcssrn. Davis A Son’s sales are constantly aud rapidly increasing. While wo congratulate our friends generally that so valuable a preparation as the Pain Killer is placed within their reach, wc must be permitted to rejoice at ihe well-merited success of its liberal and enterprising proprietor.—Provi dence Ucneral AUvt rtiser.
