BEECHER,S HABITS.

Mr. Deecher has directed his manager
Mr.. Pond, to book an extensive lecturing
tour for next year. Mr.. Beecher's salary
is $40, 900 per annum. He averages to
receive double this sum from bis lectures,
and large additional sum from his pen.
He is not rich, however. Gle keeps
open house with his son, with whom he
resides, and gives, loans, indorses and
does other unbusiness.like things con-
stantly, at heavy cost to his treasury.
It is said that beyond his farm at PeeRs-
kill, the house and stock thereon, and
his library and b:ic.a-brac there and at
Brooklyn, the great word-painter has
nothing to show for his large income for
each of very many years. His library is
so large that it is now being catalogued
with view to soon making a sale there
from. He has expended, it is estimated,
$780, 900 in books, and as many more
have been given hin: by publishers. His
house at Peekskill, built not long since,
Mr.. Beecher says, has cost him $40, 600
Others who watch business matters closer
and are familiar with it's growth say that
$4,000 would be nearer The correct sum.
His COWS are all Attorneys, and the herd
is believed to be worth $4,000 to $I8,-
600 His.farm and its manner of run
ming, and open hospitality, is enough in
itself to absorb large income. 1t is yet
somewhat incumbered. His collection
of bric-a-brac would make large and
valuable museum. Fine prints, bronzes,
paintings, statuarv-anything beautiful

THE PENSION ABUsE.-It is we'll, now
that Congress has the Mexican Pension
bill under consideration, to survey the
pension account of the Government. At
the beginning of the last war there were
about 10000 names on the pension roll,
and at the end OF the year following the
enactment of July, 1862, upon which the
present pension system is founded, the
number had increased to only 1881
The growth was rapid during the next
ten years, reaching 23S,411 in 1873, at
which time it was believed by almost
everybody that all who were entitled to
pensions had received them. But the
enactmen. of the law for arrears of pen
sions opened the flood gates, and last
year the number Of pensioners had risen
10 303, 65S, requiring an annual appro
pria,ion of $50, 245, 1872, and there are
pa, sos applications for pensions still
pending In addition to the regular
appropriation, $66,000,000 was paid for
arrearage last year The total payment
for pensions siHce the war, including
the cost of disbursement, was 1921 ,073,
297 at the beginning of 1884, and, as
there were on the pension roll last year
4,S31 soldiers and sailors of the war of
1912, it is evident that we have not vet
reached the middle of the account, if the
name of every person participating in
every subsequent war is to be placed en-
the roll. The statistics deserve earnest
attention on the part of every citizen

Ayers Sarsaparina.

Since then Mr.. LELAND has recommended
AYERS SARsAPARILLA in many similar
eases, and he has never yet heard of its fail
ure to effect a radical cure.
Some years ago one of Mr.. LELAND's farm
Taborers bruised his leg. Owing to the bad
state of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump appeared on the injured limb. Her
rible itching of the skin, with burning and
darting pains through the lump, made life
almost intolerable. The leg became enor-
ufously enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities of extremely
offensive matter. No treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Mr.. LELAND's direc-
ton, was supplied with AYERS SARsAPA-
RrLLA, which allayed the pain and irritation,
healed the sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to use.
Mr. LELAND has personally used
