"Why, what sort Of folks live thereT'
'Oh," she said, they're all fire In

It didn't seem that any one commu
nifty could be made up Of people in
one line of business, and the hearer
asked for an explanation.
"Why," came the answer. fire In

who lived abroad and have committed
every crime in the calendar. Then
when they get old they come and try
to square up by living six years OF
the most painful piety. That's why
