"I don't use that comb very much," said Captain Eri rather apologetically. "I gin'rally use the one downstairs."

Ef yer want de woman, yer mus' take her ole man too. An' so dey gin'rally did, an' paid a high price fur him too, fur de sake ob gittin' de gal. Wall, as I was a-sayin', Massa John Brown he come down in de same boat wid Vina: he'd took notice ob her, and he knowed she hadn't any ole man.

That's wot I should ha' made bold to ask you to do if you'd been one." The traveller sighed, and, taking his short briar pipe from his mouth by the bowl, rapped three times upon the table with it.

Ah took oop a big subscripshun fower rupees eight annas 'twas an' ah went oot to turn t' job over. Mulvaney an' Orth'ris coom with me." "We three raises the Divil In couples gin'rally," explained Mulvaney. Here Ortheris interrupted.

"I gin'rally am," was the reply; "there's very few people can take me in." She sniffed again. "Were the natives kind to you?" inquired Mrs. Boxer, hastily, as she turned to her husband. "Very kind," said the latter.
