QUALITY.

If there is one thing that you want, whon you go into a Drug Storo, it is QUALITY. You want Quality in all Drugs and Chemicals; Quality in all prescription work; Quality in every- thing 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 medicins stamps it with Quality, because it never goes out on any bottle or box of medicine that does not possess Quality.
