We Both Lose Money
If You Don’t Trade Here
Don't you know that buying in the mammoth quantities nec­
essary to supply the 2,000 best and biggest druggists in America,
we get the very lowest prices, the very best qualities—the choice,
in fact, of all that is finest, most up-to-date, most worth while in
the markets of the world.
When this great co-operative organization selected us as their
representative for this community, it was because they believed we
were best suited to properly serve and satisfy the needs of the
public.
Our selection was our endorsement by the biggest and best
known organization of its kind in the world.
And, on the other hand, the privilege of being a member has
enabled us to distance everyone in this community in all that goes
to make up the high-class, up-to-date, big values drug store.
«
No matter in what department—prescription, drugs, station­
ery, candy, cigars, bristle goods, rubber goods, bath requisites,
sick room supplies—in each and every one of them all we have the
best, the most exclusive lines, the most attractive prices.
Both are Right. We can satisfy
you and save you money.
