MODERN PHARMACIES.
THE EVOLUTION OF THE CHEMIST SHOP.
The modern chemists shop presents a vastly different aspect from that of bare half century ago, when the most up-to-date pharmacy boasted in place of the present day show windows, merely

Then inside this shop of bygone days, the light was dim and the atmosphere musty, still there was an attractive air of mystery- helped perhaps by the rows and rows of drawers lining the walls, and a uniform regiment of stopper- ed hotties, each bearing a shining glass label with a peculiar Latin name, such as "Elixir ad Longum Vitam", "Sat Aeratus", etc.
But the old order changeth, and. gono in the air of mystery, and the dimness and mustiness too. The chemist of to-day, is not called southing upan only to mix potion for an overworked digen- tion Dr powder for a baby eulting teeth, it he must have # thorough knowledge of the ever- Inerensing discoveries of druga for the benefit of mankind, of the vaccines, serums and antiseptics used to combat disease, and then he must sell all manner of tollet and beauty preparations, denti frices, hair lotions, And the thousands of patent medicines made by the people of all the countries of the world,
His shop also reflects this de velopment of his profession, with its spacious windows, attractively displund inside, in place of the the large variety of Koode. once conventional drawers, are Klass fronted cases filled with a kaleidoscopie array of medicines

The News premises of the Colonial Dispensary in Gloucester Building. Pedder Street, embody all the most up-to-date. idons essential to the modern pharmacy. The windows allow the goodka offered for sale to be displayed to the best advantage and
the furniture of the shop is designed to show the contents, not to hide them from view.
On the mezzanine foar is a well-equipped dispensary, stocked with drugs and galenicals to meet all demands. Here also is the necessary office.
