ter is introduced, or rather is empha-
sized-for Gen. Wheeler was long ago
introduced OH the stage Of public af-
fairs. The South prizes him and the
North must envy the South in the op-
portunity to prize him. The man has

rated native auxiliaries. Everybody
thinks better of Gen. Shafter, Colonel

IN THE DRUG BUSINESS.

The mcst delicate and responsible
part is filing Prescriptions, to proper
ly understand the art, and to be quail
fed for the position requires years Of
constant toll and study. Men compe-
tent to discharge that duty are not to
be had for the price of an ordinary day
laborer. knowledge and experience
hay" i'll all ages rightly commanded a
price. People lose sight of this fact
when they haggle and kick because
they can't buy their Prescriptions ut
the Same per cent,um at which they get
their flour and sugar. Thousands of
mistakes are im;s;io every year by mex
perienccd and unskilled men behind
the Prescription desk, and the reason
no more fatalities occur is that the ma
jority of the Doctors Prescriptions
contain no poison and while they fail
to accomplish the result desired, no
disastrous consequences follow.
The care and the anxiety and the re-
sponsibility of this thing has robbed
many good man of his health. One
of the best men ever knew, and prob
ably the most popular and successful
retail druggist who ever did business
in this Town Though he died poor)
absolutely refused in his later years to
fill Prescription under any circum-
stances. And have in my mind an
other who, though comparatively
young and in the midst Of success, had
to retire, shattered and broken in
health, borne down by the nnxieties
and responsibilities Of n retail drug
gist's life; yet people require, and
properly, the very best skill and expe-
rience in the filling of their Prescrip-
tops.
Realizing this fact, We have again,
at considerable additional expense, se-
cured the services Of DR.. NJ. F. GAME,
probably the best equipped pharma-
cist who has ever been in this section
of the State, and we confidently ask
for your Prescription business, guaran-
teeing that everything shall be abso-
kedtely accurate and as the Doctor pre-
scribes.
We have no complaints to make as
to our Prescription business. We have
always, and expect to continue, to fiji
n considerable shnre. We simply want
ed to advise the people of our extra
effort and peculiar fitness by having n
man exclusively for that line.
