There Is a story told In Boston

Lowell and a business man were talk

much do you really want?"
"Well," President Lowell nnswered
with a slight twinkle, "I am like the
little girl who went to the butcher's
for her mother. She stood by tho

the butcher said, 'What do you want,

It Is said that the term "carpet-bagger"

He was so called because he was re
