A GREAT DRUG HOUSE. Eve, yes
terday morning, looked into the large
retail Drug and Prescription Store Of
III. j. Schi8pfeT, corner of. Main and
Second Streets, and found all hands
!" busy as bees, putting up Prescrlp-
tions. selling Fancy Articles, Soaps,
&c. A glance at the way business is
done in this establishment, will eon-
vince the most skeptieal taat indus
try, integrity and strict attention to
the wants Of the public will aUin. Mr..
Sehlepfer came among US some years
ago as the manager Of the house
which he now controls, and by rigid
economy, and a constant attention to
business, was enabled to purchase the
entire stock, and, by FREQUENT addi-
tions, can now boast of having the
largest and best selected retail Drug
stock in the State. He has given
much personal attention to his Pre-
scription Department, and his Pre-
scription Book, yesterday, showed the
enormous number of 80, 123, put up
By the house since he has been in
business. and, although this number
seems immense, he informs US that
this years business will show a large
increase over that of the former.
His trade in Trusses is also very
large, and as he keeps the largest
stock In the West, embracing all
varieties, he cannot fail 10 suit all
who may favor him with call for
goods in that line.
While his drug business commands
most of his attention, he has not neg
lected to lock to the wants Of the
ladies IN the line of Fancy Goods.
Fine Imported Perfumeries. Port.
Monnaies, Fancy Soaps, Combs,
Brushes, and all the little ct ceteras
which 60 to make up q big stock of
those articles. We suggested to Mr..
S. that he had more goods in this line
than he would ever SELL but he
blandly Informed us that his stock
was never so low, but he hoped by
frequent sorting to supply the de-
mand until his return from the East
with his Fall stock, which is to be
the largest ever brought TO the. mar.
ket, and is to embrace al the noUelies
both foreign and domestic.
His Patent Medicine stock en-
braces all the leading articles in that
line, including the celebrated "SWIss
Tonic of his own manufacture,
which is fast gaining great popularity,
and is rapidly taking the place of
most of the Stomach Bitters of the
day. owing, no doubt, to the conf
dence the public have in the ability
Of Mr.. s. to put up something that is
superior. in all.repeots to anything
now IN the market.
Taken altogether, the house Of Mr..
is a credit to himself and
to the city, and is one of which the
citizens should feel proud. 81
