The Only Way

OF getting what you want is
to purchase from reliable
sources. You may not need
our goods often, but when want
ed you want them prompt
ly and want the best. The
sickroom is no place for ex-
periments. Our prescription
department is the most i'm
poltant one with us and we
leave nothing undone to
secure only the best. y drug
may be pure but not up to
the standard in strength.
Nothing short of the best is
thought of with us.
Our trade is large enough to
keep goods moving so that
we have no old stock. Our
methods of doing business
we think will warrant you in
coming back. Every article
bearing our name is guaran-
teed to be just as represented

storms last Thursday evening and
night, during which enough of the

the animal life on it. The cause of the

race and the poets lines, 'Lo, the poor
Indian whose untutored mind, sees God
in every cloud and hears him in the
wind, is true of all men.
