Robert G. Eldert, Valley Stream, N. V, writes:
'~I am a boatman and upwards of sixty years
of age During the past two years have suffer

of my back My back ached without cessation,
and at times thought that l would be para
lyzed. l procured two of ALLcocK's PoRUs

my spine. In twenty-fours all pain had ceased
Atthe end of "a week put on two fresh ALL

116 S. MAIN STREET,

The result of our first weeks business at
POPULAR PRICES, far exceeds our expecta-
tions. square dealing drug store is some
thing of novelty here in Los Angeles. but from
tn way the people crowd our store all day long,
it seems that novelties in drug dealing are as
readily appreciated here as elsewhere.
But what makes us smile is the frantic and
f1oundering efforts being made by certain fax
ing concerns to steal our thunder-mercantile
parasites, who compete with every business
house and sap the life blood of every business
man, who select a few articles from all lines.
and, selling them BELOW COST, charge the
loss to advertising. These pirates have the in
suf1erable gall to pose as the friends and cham
p'ons of the "people" and try to make it appear
that WE have been forced to break away from
some alleged deep, dark and "damnable" con-
spiracy that has hitherto existed among the
druggists of the town
FaEing few bottles of patent medicine below
cost by "bazar' concerns, who know no more
about drugs than they do about honor and de-
cency, will never reform the abuses in the drug
business.
What we started out to do and WILL do, is to
furnish DRUGS and MEDICINES at the same
price they are supplied at in New York and
other Eastern cities. This policy has been in
augurated by the present management because
it is good business policy to sell on as close a
margin of profit as possible. If there is any
such thing as Union" to maintain high
prices, as alleged, then so much for the worse
for the Union. We are in the DRUG business,
and in it to stay. Our line of merchandise in
cludes ONLY drugs, medicines and the acces-
series that legitimately belong thereto. We
charged in other drug stores, but we DO NOT
SELL ANYTHING BELOW COST, to mislead
the public. We shall allow the "bazar" fakir,
with his patent medicine drugstore attach
ment monopoly in that field
We have not space to give prices of more than
few articles which we handle, but everybody
knows what constitutes drug store stock and
our reduced prices extend to everything,
whether listed or not. We quote:
