-PAGE 1CIQ1JLT LAflUAflDKEVliNlNU OBSERVER. MONDAY, JANUARY 21, 1918 Our Regard for Small De tails Means Perfect Pre scription Service. Perfection in anything is made up of regard for many small details. Our prescription service includes care in every detail that can add to its com pleteness. An example will illustrate this: When a prescription is brought to us to bo refilled we use a new bottle, label and cork. It goes to you not only attrac tive in appearance, but in every detail it is precisely as it was at its first compounding. ' Carelessness in minor details often leads to more serious neglect so we tolerate no step in that direction. All prescription work at our store is conducted with skill and care. Notwithstanding the superior character of our service, prices on prescriptions are always reasonable. LA GRANDE PHARMACY Adolph Newlin, Mgr.
