decided t'o enter tlie field of gen-i

of yeaVshe has been (doing special

have more out J door exercise as
the close, confinement of his office
wis not; good for him' Acting
upon this adyice he has,, we think,
wisely decided t that -Roxboro is
good enough' fot any one, and he
will open an 'office in his old pffick
over the Davis Drug Company. ' ,
.There are few men in the State
so well fitted ior the. practice of
medicine, he having studied his
