A LOST TALISMAN by RAY CLARKE ROSE

First Line: AMONG THE PALMS THE THING WAS LOST
Last Line: THEY'RE ALWAYS SWELL AND DRESSY.
Subject(s): JEWELRY & JEWELERS;
AMONG the palms the Thing was lost —
That gilded circlet, rich embossed,
And marked, "From Ned to Bessie."
"A belt?" — oh, no! "A ring?" — not yet!
An ample g — oodness! In @3her@1 set
They're always swell and dressy.
