QUALITY.
If there is one thing that you want, whes you go into a Drug Store, it is QUALI1 Y. „You want Quality in all Drugs and Chemicals; Quality in all proscription work; Quality in every- hing that has to do with medicine..
Is it not so?
Certainly! There can be no question about it! That is why our trade is so large. "It is a recognized fact that our label on a bottle of medicine stamps it with Quality, because it never goes out on any bottle or box of medicine that does not possess Quality.
