JVhen he tried to speak, his lips were dry and his tongue moved nervously over them. I beg your pardon, Mrs. Tompkins, what was that you said? . I said if you haven't a delivery boy I'll wait for the three oclock bus, but Im anxious to get back as soon as I can. He looked again at Dr. Prices cramped handwriting. Oh, I'll deliver it, Mrs. Tompkins. Im sorry to learn Mr. Tompkins isnt well." I told him its just his bad disposition coming out I told Dr. Price I certainly hated to drag him out in weather like this Just for a stomach ache. Doctor says he'll be all right in a day or two. Mr. Diggles took the handkerchief from the pocket of his grey alpaca coat and wiped his forehead. The moment he used to dream of years ago, was here at last. This would cost Dr. Price his practice. The pity was, Dr. Price would never know he could have saved himself, if he hadnt made it so clear that a man who mixed prescriptions wasnt supposed to know about diagnosis. Dr. Price would never know what hed done to himself when he told Mrs. White she might as well give the twins a chocolate soda as Diggles' Own Whooping Cough Mixture. Because of Dr. Price's new ways of doing things, no one bought Diggles' Ready Rheumatism Reliever now. Shots, it was, the doctor was giving for everything. Not prescriptions. Manslaughter, they called it. He wet his lips. Well, no one could expect Mr. Diggles to Interfere with Dr. Prices prescriptions again. Not a second time. Though it was so many years ago, he could feel the flush of anger that flooded his face remembering the day hed called Dr. Price up, and suggested that maybe the heart medicine he ordered for Mr. Venables was too strong. 1 know what I'm doing. Just mind your own business, Diggles, and I can mind mine. He looked again at the prescription. There was no mistaking the symbol and he'd till It as It stood. He reached tor the bottle and removed the cork. Carefully, he measured out the prescribed dose. sudMR. DIGGLES straightened denly, staring at the partly filled mortar A feeling of nausea swept through him as he snatched it up and flung the contents Into the sink. His hand, replacing ths bottle on the shelf, trembled Outside, .the wind howled and flakes of Ice made a cold noise beating the window pane. Slowly, he walked toward the telephone. After aU, just as many people swore by Dr. Price as trusted Diggles. As he waited, listening to Dr. Prices telephone bell ringing, the shop door opened. Mr. Diggles put down the receiver and went to the front. Dr. Price was on the mat, stamping the snow from his feet Diggles, will you let me see the prescription Mrs. Tompkins just brought in?

RENT CONTROL: P IVE your living room furniture ex- , J t i 400,-00- Home Rule Favored The administrations legislative program was bogging down at every turn in congress. Rent controls, vital to millions of .Americans, were being prolonged, but not along lines desired by President Truman and his advisers. THE HOUSE had passed a rent control measure, but fixed extension at 15 months, instead of the 24 the administration wanted, and provided for home-rul- e application, a factor opposed by the administration. If the senate accepted this version of a rent control act, it would be well for all concerned in the nation to begin ascertaining views of their local rent control boards, for thats where authority to relax or continue rent controls would rest. The biU, passed by a vote of 261 to 153 is now in the hands of the senate for action and administration forces are reported ready to renew their fight for more adequate rent curbs there. Action on a senate version of rent controls had been blocked by the filibuster. local-optio- n two-wee- , CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACROSS In this placa Biblical name 9 Metallic rocks 1 5 10 11 Keep Musical instruments 12 A , barrel strip Public notice Biblical nnme Marshy meadow 18 Jewel 14 15 17 20 To howl 23 Right side 24 26 28 (abbr.)
