"Oh!" gasped the New York wo-

We talking about tho same man? I
always have understood that the one

The southern woman smiled. Yes,
We are talking about the same man."
she replied; but see we do not at

'scalawag.' Evidently with you II
means something dishonorable, or at
least reprehensible. Did you never
hear the southern use Of it beforef
The northern woman shook her
hsad. 81 never heard It used IN any
way except to indicate . man who
would resort to trickery, or even 90
tual dishonesty, to attain an end"
II never have heard it used that
way in the south. There It Is an old
political term. 1t originated just b.

those days. man who had originally
been a Democrat, but who became q
Republican, or at least Union man,
was called a 'scalawag.'"

md Arrangements were made BY
which the government should supply

was laid in, and no sooner had they
arrived when tall Navajo appeared.

would be ordered for him.

vas the laconic response
The agent was puzzled by this.
What the deuce could the Indian
mean by United States headstone?"
Every effort to ascertain Just what
was in his mind met with the in
variable reply: Want United States
headstone."
At last, fearing that the red mans
disappointment might result unfavor

ZONE money to the Indian, bidding
him 10 60 and buy the hind Of grsve
