F erocious in his paint, feathers, and horns, weird in his
ceremonial dance, the medicine man once played on the
superstitions and fears ef hie siclims in order to sell his
snake oil, resurrection brew, and all-healing ointment. He
more often killed than cured. Such pagan quackery has
yielded to science. Research has come to the aid of medical
practice, and today diagnosis and treatment of disease are
on a sound scientific basis. To benefit by the progress
which the years have wrought, see your physician when
ill. Place yourself in his care. We supplement his service
by filling your prescriptions promptly.
