QUALITY.

If there is one thing that you want, when you go into a Drag Store, it is QUALITY. You want Quality in 'all Drags and Chemicals; Quality in all prescription work; Quality in every thing that has to do with mediojau.

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 nover goes out on any bottle or box of medicino that does not passes Quality.
