IT is said that Henry Ward Beecher
gets letters almost even * day asking
him whether he really did say that
bread and water is a good enough diet
for a laboring man. Mrs. Beecher un
dertakes this part of Henry Ward's cor
respondence and has a blank reply for
every inquirer that she can fill up and
send. She tells them that Henry said
that rather than commit the error of
going out on a long strike in hard times
he would if he was a laborer prefer to
work for a dollar a day and lire on bread
and water. Mr. Beecher has always
lived up to his principles nncl has never
been out on a strike. HegctsJiowever ,
more than $1.00 a day and takes a few
things.offhis plate atmcal.s besides bread
and water.
