He must give the best possible work, and for compensation he must be reasonable. With the above facts remember we are careful and strive to please one and all alike. These are reasons why our prescription file thribbles all in this county. We are recognized by doctor and customer alike for be ing accurate and dispensing only the purest drugs.
