I thought the story might be exaggerated. Oh no, I didn't marry the night clerk. I'm a bride now, married to the head steward, same rank as poor old Morris an' we're just as happy! I used to pleg Morris about her hair, but I'd have to let up on that now. Mine's as red again as hers. No, not my hair mine's hair. It's as red as a flannen drawer, every bit an' grain!
What's number echteen, Nathan?" "The pleg o' locusts in Egypt," says Nathan. "Hoo's that gotten in there, ava?" says Sandy. "O, they'd juist putten't amon' the ither plegs," brook in Bandy Wobster. "Here's a very interestin' slide," says Sandy, as he put in the next picture.

It's awful to think of the hundreds of women who spend their happiest hours going about doing the housework, and planning just what they'd do if their husbands was to be taken off suddenly!
