 NO. However much others may be deiuded, l am sure you can see Mirap- olis in it's true light. The very air you breathe down there is poisoned. The taint is in the blood. Mir. Cartwright and his fellow bandits call it the Mir acle City but the poor wretches on lower Chigringo avenue laugh and call it Gomorrah"
 Just at the present moment it is a city of fools-and I, the king of the fools, have made it so," said Brouillard gloomily From his seat on the porch step he was frowning down upon the outspread scene in the valley, where the triangular shadow of Jacks noun tain was creeping slowly across to the foot of Chigringo. Something in the eye-sweep brought him to his feet with a hasty eXclamation:
 Good Lord! the machinery has stopped! They've knocked off work on the dam!"
 Why not?" she said. Did you imag- inc that your workmen were any less human than other people?"
 No, of course not; that is, but haven't any time to go into that now. Is your telephone line up here in operation?"
 "No, not yet"
