In keeping our drug store open is to put up
prescriptions, and that keeps us fairly busy—
with more business in sight. Our shop is often
full, but we will make room for you long enough
to take your order and will fill it from fresh ma
terial with the utmost care.
Incidentally (and why not), we supply many
people in this vicinity with toilet articles, per
fumes and stationery, and they think a lot of the
corner drug store.
