MONbAV. 31,1916. LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER PAGE FIVE Do You Know On What Correct Prescription 1 ' a Compounding Depends? Correct prescription compounding depends absolutely upon knowl edge and experience. The better knowledge and longer experience the druggist has, the mor capable he is in selecting only those drugs which are most powerfully potent and give us the greatest degree of medicinal purity. - The better knowledge and longer experience the druggist has the more capable he is in compounding remedies, because in this work, as in all walks of life, it is experience and knowledge which counts. We are certainly capable of putting up prescriptions in the very best way, and every prescription pacKuge bearing our label bears likewise our guarantee of absolute safety and benefit.

Speaking of the origin of the pert cope, tbe following extract from the writings of tbe well known Inventor of "Pepper's Ghost" gives the credit to the clerical profession. Peper wrote soon after the Crimean war: "During the siege of Sebastopol num bers of our best artillerymen were con tinually picked off by the enemy's rifles as well as by cannon shot, and In order to put a stop to the foolhardlness and Incautlousness of the men. a very In genious contrivance was invented by the Hev. William Taylor, the coadju tor of Mr. Dcnlson in constructing tbe first 'Big Ben bell. It was called the reflecting spyglass, and by its simple construction rendered the exposure of the sailors and soldiers who would look over the parapet or other parts of the works to observe the effect of their shots perfectly unnecessary, while an other form was constructed for the purpose of allowing tho gunner to 'lay' or aim his gun lu safety. ! ' "The instruments were shown to Lord Panmurc. who was so convinced of tbe importance of the Invention that be immediately commissioned the Rev. William Taylor to have a number of these telescopes constructed, and If the siege bad not terminated just at the time the Invention was to have been used no doubt u great saving of the valuable lives of the skilled arUl lerymen would have been effected."

When tbe gallant Welsh captuln, Da vid Gam, was sent forward by Henry V. to reconnolter tbe French army be fore the battlo of Aglncourt he found that the enemy outnumbered the Eng lish by about Ave to one. Uls report to the king is historic: "There arc enough to be killed, enough to be taken prisoners and enouKb to run away." This quaint forecast of the result ot the battle at once spread through the camp, and doubtless every ycoinnn archer of the vnlinut company felt an Inch taller. We know that It was al most literally justllled by' the event Poor Gam's dry humor was equaled by his courage. He was killed while In the act of saving the life of his prince. London Standard.
