 Catalan at once carried his find to his
 colonel, and has just been mentioned in
 orders of the day in the following terms:

 Here is a good story that comes fresh
 from the front. The black sheep of the
 regiment stood before his commanding
 officer charged with being drunk. He
 stoutly denied the offense, and there was only one witness-a sergeant-to prove it..
 However, the records showed Il previous
 convictions for the same offense. You
 are hardened and habitpal offender" said the colonel sternly. tI can't take your denial against the sergeant's word :"
 The prisoner turned to tho sergeant-wit- ness and asked, Have you ever been drunk?" On receiving an emphatic neg ative. he turned to the colonel again. Sergeant says I was drunk; l says l wasn't. I ask yer, colonel, which IS hkeiy to be right-him what's lad no experience of what being drunk is, or an 'ardened and 'abitual like mel"

VINTAGE AND VANTAGE STORIES
 OF THE NEWSPAPER CLUB

Here is a little story that Dr. Howell T. Heflin told the other night at the News paper club:
 Last summer I had a number of ty- phoid fever cases and I instructed the families of all my patients to drink noth- ing but boiled water. Two days later Tony, the head of an Italian family. ap- peared at my office.
 ".No drinka da water, said he, with an air of determination, sdrinka da udda kind
 "'No you won't I said emphatically. Whats the matter with it?
 "Cant drinka da water. returned Tony, wildly gesticulating, Burma ala da way down. 2
 woman of Birmingham is unmarried they usually are,' started out John Me- Rae.
 Recently her sister married and in due time there arrived a-ah-er-baby. It was the only baby in the whole family, consequently was complete innovation and occupied an enormous amount of at- tention. The marvellous wonders of it in- creased from day to day, but above all things it seems that the peculiar habit of the baby of parting company with his dinner on various and sundry occasions filled the entire family from the mother down to the 32d degree aunts with in- tense alarm.
 ''It seems, er-all-that is, I am told that it is quite an ordinary performance for a new arrival on this terrestrial ball to so perform astronomical acrobatics. but of course the new mother and the new aunt. knew nothing of this and re- peatedly kept calling the family doctor. This mysterious gentleman always passed the subject by with some little reference or other, but still the child persisted and, growing exceedingly active on the back fire of his food one night the mother for the hundredth time called the doctor and after describing the symptoms sobbed:
 "'Oh, doctori What shall I do?"
