Composed by Elijah Kellosg When a Stu v dent at Andover. Talking with a correspondent of the Boston Herald Rev Elijah Kellogg', of Harpswell, Me., thus described how he wrote that favorite declamation of school boys: "Spartacus to the Gladia tors": - "It was while I was at Andover," said he, smiling as the remembrance of the event came back to him. "We were required to prepare speeches for our rhetorical exercises, and after each - man had spoken he was subjected to criticisms by his fellows and their comments weren't always so compli mentary as they were pointed. Then the professor would follow with seri ous criticism, and he always found faults that needed correcting. "So these speeches came to be looked upon with dread, and at last I made up my mind that I'd try to get something so different from anything we had had and so interesting that it would hold . their attention too closely for them to think about points on which to criti cise me, and so I would get off free. "Well, I wrote 'Spartacus.' When I began it worked just as I had ex pected. They were so taken by sur prise that they never thought of any thing but the speech. You could have heard a pin drop at any time Avhile I' was speaking, and they did not recover until I had finished and had come down to ask for criticism. ' "Then when Prof. Payne turned to the students and inquired: 'What criticism have you to offer, young gen tlemen?' there wasn't one of them had a word to say, for they were all think ing of the piece and hadn't noticed anything else. " 'Gentlemen,' said the professor, 'we are not here for theological dis quisitions nor for learned arguments, but these exercises are purely rhetor ical, and, gentlemen, that is rhetoric' "Then, turning to me, he remarked; I could criticise you, Kellogg, but I don't know whether it would do you more good or harm, and so, on the whole, I think I will say nothing.' "So," added the old gentleman, with a chuckle, "I escaped criticism." FLOWERS OF THE NIGHT. Peculiarly Adapted to Attract Winged As we all know, there are day-bloom-- mg and night-blooming flowers, says tne vxrnnill Magazine. The former lay themselves out for the fertilizing visits of bees and butterflies; they are generally decked in red, blue, yel low or purple, and have often lines, spots or markings on their petals which point to the nectaries and so act as honey guides. The night-blooming flowers, on the other hand, lay them selves out for the visits of moths or other crepuscular insects, and therefore have .recourse to something like the tactics of the fireflies and the. glow-worms. They are usually pure white and the petals are often of such peculiar tex ture that they seem to glow with in ternal light in the dim shades of even ing. At times one might almost fancy they were stained by nature with some curious forerunner of luminous paint, so strongly .do they reflect every invisible ray of the faint twilight. They thus succeed in catching the eyes of moths, which, of course, are es pecially modified for receiving and per ceiving the slender stimulus of dusk and the gloaming. But the nocturnal flowers have no lines or spots, because these last could never be perceived in the gray gloom of evening. They make up for it, how ever, by being heavily scented; indeed, almost all the strong white flowers, like jessamine, tuberose, gardenia, stephanotis, cereus and syringa, which are such favorites with florists, belong to night-blooming plants, specially adapted to attract the eyes and noses of night-flying insects. Pressure Sustained by Divers, A veteran submarine diver, in relat ing some anecdotes concerning the bottom of the sea and its inhabitants, gives some interesting figures as to the amount of pressure the body of the diver is subjected to. At a depth of only one hundred feet the pressure is forty-four pounds to each square inch of the diver's surface. The ordinary human frame has about twelve square feet of surface, which would make the pressure at the depth mentioned above not less than thirty-eight tons. This enormous weight is not all pressing downward, but inwards from all direc tions. N All ree.

SUFFICIENT UNTO HERSELF. The Young Woman Had No Need of As . slstance of Any Kind. . The kind-hearted old gentleman watched the young woman seated next to him in the elevated train with in terest, says the New York World. She held a magazine in her hands with the leaves uncut.- She looked through the table V)f contents and raised the cor ners of the leaves so as to get a glimpse of various illustrations. The old gen tleman drew out his pocketknife hesi tatingly. He opened it still more hesi tatingly. ' The young woman seemed entirely oblivious of his acts and evi dent intentions, but their fellow pas sengers were able to arouse a great deal of interest ' in the proceeding. Finally, just as the old gentleman reached forward, extending his knife, the young woman dexterously drew out a hatpin and began cutting the Javes of her magazine. The old gen tleman leaned back and delivered him self of a confidential aside to the man. next to him: " "I have heard," he said, "that women can do anything with their hairpins and hatpins, but at any rate they d need a knife to sharpen pencils." And at that moment the provoking young woman drew a pencil from her reticule, bit the wood off the top of it, and made a note on the article she was reading. The car giggled and the old gentleman began to read his paper with an injured air- ." IN GZASS. That's the way Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets come. And it's a more important point than . you think. It keeps s them al ways fresh and re liable, unlike the ordinary pills in cheap wooden or pasteboard boxes. They're put up in a better way, and they act in a better way, than the . huge, old fashioned pills. No griping, no violence, no reac tion afterward that sometimes leaves you worse off than before. In that way, they cure permanently. Sick Headache, Bilious Headache, Constipation, In digestion, Bilious Attacks, and all derangements of the liver, stomach, and bowels are prevented, relieved, and cured. ' They're tiny, sugar-coated gran ules, a compound of refined and concentrated vegetable extracts the smallest in size, the easiest to take, and cheapest pill you can buy, tor they're guaranteed to give satis faction, or your money is returned.
