timely. distressing and unique. 49,.
No charges are made against Druggist
Forester Of neglect Of the dog. but the
cold fact remains that "Skeesics" mas
ticated a ~yard-long Turkish towel last
Friday, n turned up his little cush-
Toned paws to the daises four days
later.
The druggist used the towel for DIFF
ferent things. but principally for mop
ping up the overflow of the different
prescriptions he compounded. 1t used to
hang on a hook behind the prescription
counter. The druggist missed 1t last
Friday afternoon. He nae used It about
en- minutes previous. and was per
,lexed at Its strange disappearance:
four days later "Skeesics" died. and
dr. Forester concluded. to, make, an
autopsy. He recovered his Turkish
,owel almost intact. and he laid ."Skee-
tcs" not at all gently on the placid sur
ace Of the waters of Newtown Creek.
