"Mebbe the butther is a little hoigh," exclaimed the hostess, noting that Yan was sparing of it. "Howld on." She went again to the corner shelf and got down an old glass jar with scalloped edge and a flat tin cover. It evidently contained jam.
Mis' Holcomb's neck stiffened a little. "I guess I can cook a thing or two beside mash' potatoes," she said, and thought for a minute. "How'd you like a pan o' 'scalloped oysters an' some baked macaroni with plenty o' cheese?" she demanded. "Sounds like it'd go down awful easy," admitted Calliope, smiling.

"He made a monkey of me.
Do you remember the little scalloped line we drew round all the true knights? 'Ay! and where would have been all your romancing about Sir Maurice de Mohun, the pride of his name? For my part, I much prefer a cavalier dead two hundred years ago as the object of a girl's enthusiasm if enthusiasm she must have to the existing lieutenant, or even curate.
