When the doctor is come and
has prescribed the medicines
which his experience teaches him
your case requires, does not a
sense of fairness to him suggest
that you take that prescription to
a druggist whom a like experi-
ence qualifies for correct dispens-
ing?’ Of what avail can all your
doctor’s skill and experience be
in your sick one's favor is his pre-
scriptions are improperly pre-
pared? I have given years of study
to this business, and I believe
that you will receive prescription
service at my store that will be
of distinct value to you in the
fight with disease. Won't you let
me be your drug man too? Free
