It Pays to Buy Good Seeds.

And it pays to buy them at PeEham's
Drug Store. Why: Everybody knows
that old seeds won't gerninate, or
"come up" No old seeds are sold at
PeIham's Drug Store. The date 1888 is
marked on every paper. At the close
of tine year the rule is to destroy all
seeds on hand. Fresh, reliable seeds
are ordered, therefore it pays to buy at
Pelham's Drug Store. No use to say
all seeds are alike. There is IS much
difference in seeds as horses 10 cent
papers for 3 cents, and r foz 50 cents.
