A TROUBLED HEART.
Faith and Confidence In God Is the Great
Preventive.

Preventive.
The worst of all troubles are heart
troubles. Physical pain is more easily
borne than anguish of spirit Despond-
ency, sorrow, fainting of heart are
well known among men. The roll If
the worlds history is written within
and without with mourning, lamenta-
ton and woe. And yet Christ says to
us: Let not your heart be troubled.
Why, when man is born to trouble as
the spark to fly upward, was this pre-
cept uttered? The reason is given:
''Ye believe in God, believe also in me-"
Faith, confidence in God, is the great
preventive of heart trouble.
The cares of life are source OF
trouble to many-in some measure to
all The Holy Spirit says: BE
careful for nothing; but in every
thing, by prayer and duplication,
with thanksgiving, let your re-
quests be made known unto God"
TO have faith is to exercise believing
! trust in the declaration of God. God
commands us to take no anxious, dis
tressing thought for the morrow. Gods
commands are reasonable. If obeyed
the source of trouble arising from
worldly cares would be removed. II
God were to say to you. "Plunge into
the stream, and will cause you to pass
safely over,' you would not distrust
Him, you would obey Him. Why not
obey Him when He says: "Be careful
for nothing?" Perhaps you may say:
II could trust Him if everything were
not so dark" Gods veracity and power
does not depend upon your foresight.
blessed are they that have not seen,
yet have believed"
"All things" work together for good
to those who love God. This is Gods
declaration, and therefore must be
true. Let this truth be acted on. and
how many sources of trouble would re-
main?
Christ does not promise to remove tho
causes of the trouble; He furnishes the
means of neutralizing their power.
These are founded on His character and
government. Full faith in Him would
dry up every source of sorrow. He
may well command His followers to
not let their hearts be troubled, even
in view Of the most gloomy prospects

DEEMINcYs MANY CRIMEs.
The Fiend Said to Have Confessed Two
Whitechapel Murders.

Whitechapel Murders. 4
MELBOURNE, March 29.-Considerable
excitement is caused here by state
ment published by The Argus, which
declared that Deeming, the murderer,
had made confession. There has been
strong suspicion entertained here and
in England that Deeming is the motor
ious Jack the Ripper" and this sus-
picion is borne out not only by Deem
ing's appearance, which closely tallies
with the description given of the White
chapel iiend, but also by his alleged ,;on-
fession.
According to The Argus Deeming has
acknowledged that he killed his wife
and four children at Dinham villa, at
Rainhill, near Liverpool, and that he
murdered and mutilated the last two
women whose bodies were found in
Whitechapel. 1t is believed that when
he finds all hope of escape cut off he
Will also confess other murders of which
the police know nothing.
1t transpires that the woman whose
body was found, together with those Of
her four children, under the floor of the
Ralnhlll residence was not Deeming's
hrst wife. Some years ago q sensation
was created in Australia by the mysteri-
GUS disappearance of the wife and two
children of man who then went by the
name of Williams, but who turns out
to be Deeming. The family then re-
sided in Sydney. There was grave sus-
picion of foul play at the time, but the
bodies were not found and the matter
was allowed to drop.

THE 70 ETs HUMBLE LIFE.
Tho Gcntlcness with Which He Re-
cciVed Harsh Criticisms.

ccived Harsh Criticisms.
1t is with regret that the world hears
OF the Good Gray Poets" death. His
contemporaries were not always kind to
him. The critics "cut him up" with
their pens, but the sturdy old man never
deigned a reply or defense.
His chief crimes in the eyes of his op-
ponents We're his utter lack of convcn-
tionalty, his use of words not often
sounded In Gears polite" and his total
disregard ofthe laws of versifying. Bnt
Whitman calmly ignored the onslaughts
made on him and insisted that he had
merely inau Eurated a new style
Il dismiss he has said, without
ceremony all the orthodox accoutcr-
ments, tropes, haberdashery of words,
feet, measure that form the entire stock
In trade of rhyme talking heroes and
heroines. My meter Is loose and free.
The lines arr of irregular length, appar-
emily lawless at first pcrusal, but on
closer acquaintance you will find that
there is regularity, like the recurrence,
for example, of the lesser and larger
waves on the seashore, rolling in with
out intermiasion and fitfully rising and
falling"
This sort of reasoning, however, by
no means aisarmed his critics. Nat
urally the general public was to large
extent preludiced by these opinions of
trained literary men. No other result
was possible, for Whitman was called
''sensual," Immoral" gross" and
with such persistence that the ordinary
reader in America came after time to
look upon lin as a person whose writ
ings were Objectionable. Of late years,
however, there has been decided reac-
ton. Whatever the explanation, re-
spect for the lonely old man certainly
replaced to large extent the ridicule
formerly expressed for him.
Abroad there is no question as to the
feeling which will be called out by the
news of his demise. In the darkest
hours of hif struggle for fame it was
Whitman's consolation that he was ap-
preciatcd III Europe. The English peo-
pie particularly hailed him as a genius,
a. the true american poet, greater than
bryant or LonStellow. In America,
when "Leaves of Grass" appeared, in
1855, there was practically no one to ut.

rallied from the attack, although his
physicians said he was very weak and
liable to expire at any time. Five days

condition, and for the last three days he
took no nourishment at all. About a

A Meal Grant Eniored.

An unpublished story OF General Grant
was told yesterday at the Grand Pacific
by Paul Cores:
al was steward at the Palmer House, Z"
he said, "vhen the ex- President stopped
there on his return from the tour of tho
world. One noon was all but stupelied
at seeing General Grant creep into the
kitchen door, as though escaped from
some one. Il am sorry to trouble you,
he said, as though asking a great favor,
'but may have a little corued beef and
cabbageP why, certainly l replied.
But shall not send it to you out in the
dining roomP No. he answered, Tll
cat it right here, If you let me sit down
at this table. So | cleared away place
on the rough board table, where the cook
had been fixing the meat, drew up a stool
and the way he got away with that corned
beef and cabbage made my eyes bulge.
When he had finished he laid down his
knife and FORK and with funny sigh of
satlsli ction, put one hand on my shoulder
and said, Young man, suppose you
don't care for that at all, but if you had
had to eat what have for the past few
months it would taste ike dinner for
the gods. The poor old fellow had
dined with everybody from the Queen
down, and that cabbage in my kitchen
did him more good than all the rest
together. Chicago News.

A constantly warm and moist atmos.
phere is essential to ferns. The stock of
ferns can be increased by dividing the
roots in early spring, but when growing
Tor profit, it is more usual to bring on
seeding produced from spores sown in
late summer or autumn. The spores
should be sown in pans of fbrous peat
mixed with sand and broken crooks,
pressed firm, and kept perpetually moist
by Being stood in saucers of water. The
pan should be shaded with paper until
termination has taken place. As soon
as the seedlings are large enough to han
die they should be pricked off into
thumb pots. The best time for repot-
ting ferns is February, and large plants
may then be divided. In potting on
ferns the roots should be disturbed as
little as possible, only the surface soil
should be removed, and the outer part of
the ball. Once in two years is often
enough to repot ferns as rule; old
plants require repotting less often than
young ones. While repotting, old and
withered fronds may be cut away, but at
no other time of the year should the
leaves be cut back. The roots should
never be allowed to get dry in winter or
summer.-New York World.

FLAvoR1NG BEEF.

Rich, juicy beef is the product of
breed and feed. If good breed is OBJ
tained, a good system of feeding then
becomes essential for the highest perfec-
ton OF meat. There is such thing as
| flavoring beef by feeding it,and breeders
could make distinct and noble depar-
ture in this line. Feeding in this way
is not simply to give the animals any
thing that they can convert into flesh,
but only the food that will add to the
beef certain davors and richness which
will make the meat desirable.
1t is the wild celery which makes the
delicious flavor of the meat of the
canvas back duck. Chestnuts and other
nuts make turkeys and chickens pro-
duce meat of a superior flavor, and it is
now demonstrated beyond doubt that
clover-made pork is far preferable to
that made entirely from corn. In many
other ways every article of food havo-s
the meat, making it better or worse for
having entered the system of the animal
or bird.
Just previous to slaughter, beef takes
its flavor directly from the food given to
the animal, and the correct method of
feeding is to give the cattle only such
foods as will make the meat sweet, juicy
and aromatic. A really choice article in
beef, as we'll as in any other food, will
be eagerly sought after and paid for at
fancy prices.
But the feeding for flavor is not con.
fined entirely to cattle. The same truth
holds among the swine, poultry and other
animals. Successful dairymen are very
careful in feeding their COWS, because
they know that the food will directly af.
feet the milk. Rich, juicy grass pro.
duces the fine June butter and cream,
which is very different from the butter
made from the dry, coarse fodder of the
winter. 1t is important that all who
raise meat for market should take les
son from the dairymen, and then try to
adopt similar methods in their feeding.
Vary the diet, and feed for bone, muscle
and fat, but also feed for flavor. Even
tender meat that has no juice or flavor is
not very desirable.
The French produce for market the
finest poultry in the world, and they
have succeeded in studying the question
in this respect better than any other
farmers. The meat of their poultry ex-
cells, and is of remarkable flavor. They
do it by feeding the fattening birds
with cloves and spices, which become
mixed in the meat so that there is de-
licIous aroma from it all of the time. So
excellent are their methods in fattening
poultry that farmers of other countries
adopt their rules.
Feeding for flavor is thus founded up
on law of nature which should not be
overlooked. There is wide field for
investigation and experiment. The i'm
provement of poultry, swine and cattle
flesh is annually becoming more essen
tial, and those who lead in this respect
are sure to reap the profts.-Boston
Cultivator.
