She seemed on the point of handing in her resignation there and then. But evidently she thought better of it, for, taking a cue from Mrs. Rossmore, she asked in the sarcastic manner of her mistress: "Four is it now, M'm?

A minute or two passed, yet she heard and saw nothing. Then she quickly descended the stairs. The door of the sitting-room was open; the room was vacant. "Lilian!" she called aloud, involuntarily. She sprang to the front door and looked about in the little garden. Some one moving behind caused her to turn round; it was the servant. "Annie, has Mrs. Quarrier left the house?" "Yes, m'm, she has.
If one could hit on a man who would understand, one might get twenty thousand for the idea alone! Even you would understand if I were to tell you about it. Only you . . . don't chatter about it . . . not a word . . . but I fancy I have talked to you about it already. Have I talked to you about sausage-skins?" "M'm . . . by and by."

Raynor wishes the dog-cart sent to the station at five o'clock to meet Mr. Oberville. Footman. Very good, m'm. Shall I serve tea at the usual time, m'm? Isabel. Yes. That is, when Mr. Oberville arrives. Very good, m'm. Where are you going? Isabel. To my room now for a walk later. Warland. Later? It's past three already. Isabel. I've no engagement this afternoon. Warland. Oh, I didn't know.
"Oh, no!" said Sophia; but with a slight failure to rebut the suggestion as utterly ridiculous. "Sure?" Constance questioned. "Quite, thank you," said Sophia. "Well, I'll leave you. I expect Amy will have tea ready directly." She went down into the kitchen. "Amy," she said, "as soon as we've finished tea, light a fire in Mrs. Scales's bedroom." "In the top bedroom, m'm?" "Yes."
Miss Stivergill repented of the speech instantly on seeing the tears start into Tottie's large eyes as she replied quickly "Indeed I would, m'm. Oh! you've no notion 'ow kind father is w'en 'e's not in liquor." "There, there. Of course he is. I didn't mean to say he wasn't, little Bones. It's a curious fact that many drun , I mean people given to drink, are kind and amiable. It's a disease.

Her father he couldn't come, so I come instead." "And how are you going to get back?" "I'll have to walk, I expect, without I can pick up with a cart." Frances Freeland compressed her lips.
I'm nearly off my head! Good evening, m'm. What's all this fuss about the washing? MISS COBLEY: Please, m'm, the seven collars, what you sent I mean the seven what was marked was wrong, And mother says as you'd have had the washing Only there weren't but five, and would you mind....

"It's the only thing makes the world go round!" she declared, with an emotion that I had heard in her tone once or twice already.
