THE AUTHOR OF ' SPARTACUS."
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

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- ."

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

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,
