"God bless us!" ejaculated the servant, starting and turning a comely dirty face toward Marian. "Did I frighten you?" said Marian, herself startled by the exclamation. "You put the life acrass in me," said the servant, panting, and pressing her hand on her bosom. "I am sorry for that. I was going to say that I think you need not take any further trouble with the fire. It will light of itself now."
