One night a hotel caught fire， and the people who were staying in it ran out in their night clothes（睡衣）． 
Two men stood outside and looked at the fire． 
“Before I came out，” said one，“I ran into some of the rooms and found a lot of money． People don't think of money when they're afraid． When anyone leaves paper money in a fire， the fire burns it． So I took all the bills that I could find．No one will be poorer because I took them．” 
“You don't know my work，” said the other． 
“What is your work？” 
“I'm a policeman． 
“Oh！” cried the first man． He thought quickly and said，“And do you know my work？”“No，”said the policeman． 
“I'm a writer． I'm always telling stories about things that never happened．”
