ure to his manv friends in Tazewell

Virginia, and on account of his high
grade there, received the appointment
of resident physician to the Memorial
hospital, Richmond, Va, After eigh-
teen months experience in that insti-
tuition he took a post graduate course
at the Harvard Medical School, Bos-
ton. which, together with his work in
New York, has qualified him for most
any position in the medical world to
which he might aspire. He was con-
nected with DR.. Geo. Ben Johnston,
the famous Richmond surgeon in hos
pital and Cynical work in Richmond
for sometime.

A North Tazewel business man
who lives in Tazewell, and who has
been decidedly careless about getting
married was asked the cause of his
delay by a friend the other day. He
answered that he had thought of the
matter seriously, but the lady who
occupied his mind-and heart-had
never been operated on for appendi-

pose to any one who hadn't.

MARIETTA YOUNG LADY
FINDS RING IN OCEAN

The Jacksonville Times-Union has
this story Of a former Marietta girl
finding ring in the Atlantic. AS the
plain gold band slipped on her third
finger she must be at least betrothed
to some prince of the realm of Nep-
tune. Possibly it was lost by a fair
bather, bride of long ago:
"The following incident, which
reads like a story book tale, took
place on the beach last Thursday aft
ernoon. Mrs. j. L. Reed and daugh-
ter, Miss Marguerite, were taking a
surf bath. Just as they started out
of the water the young lady stopped
down and gathered a handful of CO.
quina clans and sifted them through
her fingers, dropping them back into
the water. She reached down a sec
ond time and when she drew her
hand up, filled with the small clam
shells, there was a gold ring on her
third finger. AS she dug her hand
down into the sand she felt the ring
slipping upon her finger, but thought
it must be piece of seaweed. The
ring is a plain gold band, Is carat,
and by its worn appearance must
have been washed by the seas for a
long time"

were removed and fortunes were tried.

written on them, were distributed and
pictures of future partners were found
hidden in various places. A peanut

He Is the man who looks after his sal
