Come this way to the lower room, an' I'll go up to the attics." "Let me go, too, and it will save Miss Saxon coming down," said Jennings, wishing to take Juliet unawares. "Ah, now you speaks sense. Legs is legs when stairs are about, whatever you may say," said Mrs. Pill, leading the way, "an' you'll excuse me, Mr.

The delicate look had gone from Marion's face, and the disfiguring glasses were rarely seen. One evening in May an unexpected visitor appeared in the shop. A tall, wiry man, past middle age, with a keen, kindly face. "Why, Dr. Baird!" cried Norah, "I was just wishing for you." "You were?" he said, shaking hands. "Anything wrong with my patient?"
