BRANDY BOTTLE AS TOMBSTONE
(From a Reuter Correspondent) KRAGUJEVAC (Jugoslavia), Nobody in Kragujevac is being allowed to forget that it was the brandy bottle which finished off poor old Radoje. Radoje. a hard-drinking Serb, now rests in the local cemetery i under a quaint tombstone ordered by his wife after 40 years of j marriage. j The tombstone has a bottle ot i Rakija, a heady Serbian plum brandy, and a glass engraved in a corner. Underneath is the epitaph: “Here lies Radoje who was unfortunately killed by Rakija. This monument is erected by his fortunate wife.” ,
