 Some day the druggists of Water bury will declare war agtinst few members of the medical profession who are said to make a practice of furnish ing medicine to their patients. 1t is said that there are three or four doc tors ill Waterbury who do considerable business in this line and that the drug gists and the other physicians are pre- pairing plans to swoop down upon them and endeavor to compel them to write out their prescriptions the same as others do and then let the friends of the sick people have them put up wherever they please. The physicians who furnish medicine and advice for the same price as the others charge for the prescription only. do a rushing business and grow rich fast while some of the ones who feel above that kind of tactics find it hard at times to get enough collateral out of their practice to make ends meet If half what peo- pie heard about the doctors be true, they have their own troubles.
