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.

The Reflecting Spyglass Used at the
Siege of Sebastopol.
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."

Gam's Dry Humor.
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
