Here each man was supplied with a hot tub, soap and a clean towel, and was issued on stepping out from his tub with freshly-washed underwear, turning his soiled clothes in. This was a splendid system, and when later the clothes were not only washed but sterilised it ensured the men freedom for a short time at least from vermin.
A quarter of an hour later Mariana returned with a beaming, freshly-washed face, brimming over with gaiety, and a few minutes later Tatiana, Pavel's wife, appeared with the samovar, tea things, rolls, and cream. In striking contrast to her gipsy-like husband she was a typical Russian buxom, with masses of flaxen hair, which she wore in a thick plait twisted round a horn comb.
It was the sight of Dinah Brome at the head of affairs, however, which drew his attention from these details. "Well, I'm jiggered!" Depper said, and paused, door in hand, on his own freshly-washed step. "You wipe your feet, afore you come in," said Mrs Brome, masterful as ever. "Here's yer supper ready.

"How do you do?" she chirped. "I'm so glad it isn't yesterday, aren't you?"
Of course she wore gloves, white ones, stained at the fastenings with iron-mould, and in one hand she carried a very dashed-looking sunshade which she referred to as her "perishall." Beryl, sitting in the window, fanning her freshly-washed hair, thought she had never seen such a guy.
