Bob Evan’s Whiskey.
Admiral Robley Evans tells the following story against himself. He had a congressman for a guest and, having run out of his favorite brand of whiskey made qp with some he could not guarantee.' He explained this, and added: “Here, however, is some brandy that I’ve kept untouched for a good deal more than twenty years.” “Hand me over the whiskey decanter,” w;as the rejoinder. “Why?" asked the admiral. “What’s the matter with the brandy?” “That’s what I want to know, Bob,” said the guests, “but if you have had it untouched in your possession for more than twenty years there must be something pretty bad the matter with it.”
