She comes and sits down on the hero's breakfast table and cleans them over the poor fellow's food. She comes into the drawing room cleaning boots. She has her own method of cleaning them, too.

oppressively good. She never wants to be "unhanded" or "let to pass." 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.

There is the lodging-house slavey. She has a good heart and a smutty face and is always dressed according to the latest fashion in scarecrows. Her leading occupation is the cleaning of boots.
