LIFE AND DEATH ALIKE.
Young Man at Least Thought There
Was Mighty Little Difference
in That Quiet Town.

There is in California village
noted for its quiet, restful atmosphere
where the rush and clamor of business
never intrudes and where the com
muter never rushes for his train, or
anybody is ever in hurry. And the
climate even seems TO proclaim seren-
ity, for spring, summer, autumn and
winter follow each other with but lit
tie change in temperature. To this
peaceful village came a man advanced
in years TO pass the evening of life in
rest and quiet. In due course of time
came a nephew to visit him, and TO
him, who was so young and active, the
place seemed dull. He said: Uncle,
why did you choose such place TO
live in?" "Oh," said the uncle, II
thought this would be a good place to
live in, and a good place 10 die in
But how will you know when you are
dead?" said the nephew.
