1nte1ieaeed, But g Hero.

A stranger in our town wandered aim lessly into one of the local lunch carts late Friday evening in very intoxicat- ed condition. He spoke to no one as he bumped from one to another until some of the town wags started, to rag him about his condition. With as much dig nity as he could command, the stranger quietly apologized for his condition and in honeyed phrases told his questioners that it was none of their business where he got his liquor. The joshing kept up with many personal remarks until the stranger quietly drew forth from his pocket parchment which he showed to those about. 1t read something like this: His Majesty commends - for bravery and va1our on the field oi battle, etc" The crowd said no more.
