It Requires Time.
THE OLD STORES
are like men—usually those suc
ceed who deserve success. No
business depends so much on
the confidence of the public as
that of the druggist. It should
be so. The business lies so
close to the health and lives of
people, that there should be no
doubt as to the reliability of
goods ottered, or as to the skill
and accuracy of the druggist.
Our store has enjoyed the con
fidence of the public for many
years, the same persons patron
izing us year after year.
Our specialty has always been
the careful tilling of prescrip
tions and recipes. We insure
safe drugs, safe compounding
and safe prices.
