“I want somebody to show me where to unload this coal,” said the grimy-looking man at the kitchen door. “ You needn’t ask me about that,” retorted the young woman. I don’t have any thing to do with unloading coal. I’m the kitchen lady.” “I can’t help that,” he rejoined. “ I’m the coal gentleman and the father of three kitchen ladies, one laundry-lady, and one cash lady, and if you don’t show me where to put this coal I’ll call the woman of the house.” “ I—ITI show you, sir,” she humbly replied, leading the way to the coalhouse.
