I Foresters
Attention
The order of Foresters has contracted with
Howell & Jcnes, the prescription specialists, to
furnish all drugs and medicines and to prepare
all prescription for members of that order.
o
This enterprising drug firm makes a specialty of this work
and has built up the largest prescription trade in Clack
amas county. They treat their customers right, and al
ways give them Just what they want. If a sufferer
wants "HooJ's" Sarsaparilla, he gets ''Hood's,'' and is
not importuned to take something "just as good." They
attribute their immense trade to buying and selling only
the highest grade nf drugs and medicines that can be had.
Maybe first grade drugs would just barely cure, and second
grade drugs prove just a tritle too weak. Life sometimes
hang by a hair, and that hair may be the quality of a sin
gle drug. In the filling of prescriptions they use only the
highest grade drugs, regardless of cost :: :; ::
