In other words our business has made a great deal more rapid increase -than the town has. There are dozens ot reasons for this all of whioh you will perceive if you begin buying drag store goods of us. In the first place we had a thorough " training for pharmacy. In the second place we bad ex ceptional opportunities for learning the practical side of pharmacy in a successful drug store of the highest stand ing. In the third plane we, have kept our eyes open and etu-ndedtio business until we know the demands ot the people of this town. 4 ' ' . - ; :,' Ae " TV Prescription Druggist HILL, La Grande, Ore . .
