No One Buys Drugs For Fun
No one sells them for amusement It's a ser
ious, important business on both sides. A drug
store should have two missions: One, to tarnish
drugs that oan be relied on, tbe other to famish
them for what thoy are worth. Drug stores ex
, 1st for the pnbtle good. Knowledge, experience
and progressive methods should mark their
management, we endeavor to keep step with
the progress of the age, to m:et every require
ment of the community, to oonduot a store that
shall stand for all that a erug store should.
We wish to serve those who want accurate
service, high grade drugs, and uniformly
fair and oourteoas treatment
