Anna and Maggie worked side by side in the factory, and were the greatest chums ever.
Tulliver, desiring her daughter to have a curled crop, "like other folks's children," had had it cut too short in front to be pushed behind the ears; and as it was usually straight an hour after it had been taken out of paper, Maggie was incessantly tossing her head to keep the dark, heavy locks out of her gleaming black eyes,--an action which gave her very much the air of a small Shetland pony.
And to cap it all, Coal Tar Maggie was printed in great white letters the whole length of either side.
