Merely a Coincidence.

“I am sure,” remarked Mrs. Finfrock, who keeps roomers and boarders, “that you will like the place very milch, Mr. Adams. My boarders are always cheerful and happy. The scenery is so very cheering. Really, the outlook is inspiring.” “I have no doubt your house is a very pleasant home. As lam looking for such a place, I will come out and see it. Please direct me to it.” “It is very easily found. Take the green line to F styeet, and change on the white line, which you leave at J street. Then walk seven blocks down Q street and you are there. Just before you get to the home you will see Mr. Reed’s sign. He is the undertaker. Then just on the other side of the marble yard is the office of Dr. Dwigcins. It’s right there. You can’t miss it.” “Is there a cemetery nearby?” . “No, sir. What do you mean?” “Oh, I just thought it would make such a happy combination of all the professions necessary for the proper disposition of your boarders after you were through with them.”
