She is not always being shocked or insulted by people telling her that they love her; she does not seem to mind it if they do. She is not always fainting, and crying, and sobbing, and wailing, and moaning, like the good people in the play are. Oh, they do have an unhappy time of it--the good people in plays! Then she is the only person in the piece who can sit on the comic man. We sometimes think it would be a fortunate thing--for him--if they allowed her to marry and settle down quietly with the hero. She might make a man of him in time. THE SERVANT-GIRL.
