DRUGGISTS.
THE FARMERS DRUG STORE
443 EAST COMMERCE sTREEM

ITO EASl SIhEEM
By careful examination of the
commercial facilities enjoyed by
this place, we find that among its
contemporaries this house ranks
as one of the most important. This
distinction is accorded not only
from the fact that it is one of the
most reliable of its kind in the
city, but in the magnitude of its
operations and the enterprise of its
business policy it may be regarded
as occupying an eminent position
and a marked influence. The
house is stocked with a superb
selection of fresh drugs, chemicals,
proprietary remedies, stationary,
in addition to full assortment of
holiday goods. The store is head
quarters for everybody. No fabu-
lous prices are charged here, but
full value is given for the money
expended. The store, which is an
eminently well conducted one, is
empty furnished and fitted
throughout in neat and tasteful
manner, thus displaying goods to
their best advantage.
Doctor H. A. Blair, the well
known and popular proprietor of
this mammoth establishment, is a
Hungarian by birth. Fourteen
years ago he made his advent into
San Antonio, with good con-
science, plenty of grit, but, like
many others, no money. BY hard
work, close application and a thor
ough knowledge of his profession
he has succeeded and has built up
a fine business. Three years ago
he graduated with honors in medi-
cine and has a splendid Office prac-
tice. This year the Blair drug
store will be one of Santa Claus
headquarters, and here will be
found something to please the
young and the old, some memento
that will be appreciated in remem-
brance of a tender friendship, etc.
In conclusion let us say that with
the push and vim displayed in the
management of this reliable drug
house, time can but bring pros
perity.

The technical knowledge, accu.

lance demanded of a druggist in
the exercise of his functions in
compromising and dispensing drugs
and medicines are such as do not
attach to any other branch Of
science, art or profession. 1t is
therefore a matter of the highest
consideration that only those of
established reputation for relia-
hhity and skill should receive
popular favor, and in this connec-
ton attention is directed to the
