EXPLAINED.
A board of physicians were inquiring- into the state of mind of an alleged lunatic. “S ou told us just now,” said the spokesman, “that you were the Emperor Napoleon, and now you say you are the Duke of Wellington. Pray explain yourself.” “Quite right.” returned the patient, cheerfully; “that was by a different mother.” They didn’t ask him any more questions.
