The reputable doctor of wide experience
in his county or district needs rest from
his rounds of professional work in the
winter time, as the city doctor seeks It IN
the summer. Richmond during the WIN
ter legislative sessions would be a pleas
ant resort During his off hours from
legislative duties there are two medical
colleges in the city, at either of which
he could attend the clinics or drop in to
hear lectures. Between 500 and GOO nedi-
cal students are in the city during the
winter months. There are two ably con-
Quoted, regular medical societies in the
city, at both of which he would be well
come. There are plenty of places OF at
traction. and homes for social enjovments
So that, beside gaining much-needed rest
for himself while vet his expenses are
paid by the State, he can serve his con-
sstituents and the profession greatly IN
being able to correct errors and to direct
needed legislation for the good of thu pro
fession and his home poole. We do net
want the political trickster. but the hiyll-
minded, honorable doctor. in the Legisa-
ture. There are only two or three of
the latter in that body now: and theI
are TOO few to cope with intriguers. or
