QUALITY.

If there is one thing that you want, when you go into a Drug Store, 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 no?

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.
