And it came to pass last week
that a certain man got drunk, hill
arious, and did have blood in his
eye and was bound to lick some
body. Going it upon the theory
that discretion is the better part of
valor, he made the happy hit of
going home and icking his wife.
Then he slept a sleep and the next
day came forth, got more drink
and proceeded to give her some
more of the same kind of medicine.
The woman escaped to the house of
neighbor and remained in hiding
until her wayward husband came
around duly sober and penitent.
Then it was that she fully demon
strated her noble, sensible charac-
ter by forgiving him and going
home. OF course it was upon his
sacred promise to do so no more,
and it is to be sincerely hoped that
the promise will be strictly and
sacredly kept.
