MEDICIflE I When you need medicine you want the best. That is natural. A man may be contented with an $10 overcoat, even though he knows some other man wears coats that cost $45. A woman may wear $1 gloves and see the $2 kind without being disturbed. It is different with medicine. Everyone wants the highest quality ; and that is the only kiud I keep. I am particular in selecting and buying my drugs ; careful in making my medicine ; and exact in compounding prescriptions. I solicit your trade on these assurances. CHAS 1.
