PURE describes the essential quality
of Drugs. No other Drugs have any real
value, and no other can properly be used
in compromising medicines. A notable
point about all medicines prepared by us
is the fact that only pure Drugs are used.
This is the reason why ply sicians SO
often accompany their prescriptions with
the direction, "Have this filled at tne
City Drug Store" The class OF Drugs
we carry amply justifes this confidence
of the medical profession. 1t is upon
this ground that we ask your patronage.
Once YOU bestow it, we feel sure OF re-
tanning it. Low prices are our rule.

A Slight Mistake.

New York World.
"There never was nicer man
than Colonel JONES'" remarked the
old gentleman on the hotel piazza
to a group of his fellow Virginians.
"He was as gentle as woman
and as soft as silk, with sly little
way of getting at things that was
perfectly irresistible. His first
born, whom he always called
'Jimmie,' was great favorite Of
his fathers and was not unlike
him in many respects; and the
old gentleman humored him in
everything until Jimmie took
notion to get married. He was
only 10, and his father objected on
account of his youth. Jimm lie
argued day after day with his
father, but the old man stood him
out, and finally the boy investi-
gated the family Bible and made
himself two years older by the
record. Then he went after his
father again.
"But, ny boy" said the colonel,
insistently, Il tell v on it must not
be until you are older. l have no
other objection, and it will be all
right il you will only watt
Chow long must / waltz" asked
Jimmie, guilelessly.
"Weli, say until you are 90"
"Why, father said Jimmie,
exultantly, q am that old now"
ooh, no, my boy, you are only
u.s."
"But 1 tell you L am"
az think not, Jimmie"
"You'll believe the Bible, won't
you?"
always" replied the colonel
reverently, though there was a
twinkle in his eye.
"Then I'll show you that l am
20 and James went after the rec
ord and brought it back in
triumph. "There," he said, spread
ing 1t on his fathers knees, "look
for yourself"
"The colonel took out his glasses,
carefully wiped them, put them on
deliberately and consulted the
page before him.
"What do you say to that"
questioned the boy eagerly.
"It's all right, Jimmie; it's all
right by the figures he responded
in tone of sadness.
"Then / may get married"
eyes, Jimmie almost sobbed
the colonel, but this is a sad day
for your parents"
"Why father" said Jimmie, 1T
isn't so bad as all that. PM going
to live right by you when Pm
married"
at isn't that, Jimmie; it isn't
that sighed the father, tits the
record in the sacred book. Look
at the date OF your birth, and then
turn back to the page where the
marriages are recorded and you
will find that the date Of your
parents marriage is more than a
year later than your first birthday.
That's what hurts me, Jimmie
and the colonel buried his face in
his handkerchief.
"Jimmie's countenance showed
that he had put his foot in it. He
watched his father for minute
and then he broke out laughing.
"That's all right, pop" he said,
Sand I'll wait till Pm 81 or 81, II
YOU say So" but the colonel had
carried his point and was willing
to make concessions"
