ALMOST A QUARTER MILLION.
100000 Prescriptions Have Been
Compounded at Greene's Pharmacy.

Two hundred thousand prescrip-
lions In the course of q years In the
drug business. an average OF some-
thing over 20 n day or one every 40
minutes, counting Is hours as an
average days work, is record OF
which few pharmacists can boast,
yet the occasion of that achievement
was celebrated by George +. Greene
Tuesday The 200,000th prescription
Monday evening. II having been writ
ten by DIR. c. r. Aldrich shortly over
/ q years after the first prescription
was written by DIR. George +. Gale
and compounded by Mr.. Greene him
| self in the same prescription room
which Is now used. The event was
lfittingly celebrated Tuesday, the store
being decorated with numerous signs
explaining the significance OF the oc-
casion. In the south show window
were displayed copy of the first
prescription. written in May 1878,
| the 200,000th prescription and the 20
huge volumes which contain all the
intervening ones. A large number of
people visited the store during the
day and congratulated the proprietor
on his achievement. many expressing
the hope that he would live TO see
the 400000th prescription put up. Mr..
Greene himself was out of town Mon
day and did not return until the IL
o'clock train Tuesday morning. Al
though he had known something of
the preparations for the celebration
he was not little surprised 10 find
il in progress on his arrival
Probably no man in New England
has had more successful career as
a druggist than Mr.. Greene. AT the
outbreak OF the civil war he was
reading medicine. and soon after his
enlistment in the 10th Vermont reg
iment was made acting hospital
steward. Later he was given the
rank of hospital steward in the reg
ular army and remained in the SER
vice until September. 1865. being sta
toned at numerous military hospitals
in New England and New York. At
ter his discharge he entered the drug
store of l. " Thorn, where he re-
manned two years, meanwhile becom-
ing Il partner in the business. he
sold his interest to Mr.. Thorn in 1877
and one year later opened his pres
ent store. he and his son, the late
Louis D. Greene, having manufac-
tured nearly all the fixtures. Mr..
Greene's success has been due IN
great measure to the care with which
he has attended to the details of the
business. He has always made II
point TO use nothing but the purest
drugs, and his stock in other lines
shows careful and intelligent selee-
tion. During the past Is years he has
been ably assisted by Wilfred f. Root, |
TO whom the success of Tuesdays |
event is largely due.

Gov. Bell. East Hardwick. VT:
Vermont is again threatened with
the horrible disgrace of p years ago.
The reputation and honor of the old
Green Mountain State is in your hands
alone and every true Vermonter be-
lieves in that highest justice that Is
the sister of mercy. Should this poor
weak woman meet her doom on Fri
day in the state. where my brother
has been so greatly honored. please
face his portrait to the wall. Every
true yermonter will hang his head in
shame before the world Have the
mercy of the Master and may that
peace Of the bravely merciful be al
ways YOURS. Lloyd Clark
The portrait referred TO is one that
was placed in the state house at Mont
pelier by an appropriation of the YER
mont legislature in tribute to capt.
Clark's daring performance with the
oregon. 1t is reported that Capt
LLOYD Clark makes his request with
his brothers consent, and that he has
made provision TO see that 1t is car

When questioned about the matter
at Essex Junction Tuesday evening,
Gov. Bell said he had not received
s,,cI, i, taiaprarn hltt If he should he
did nor propose to accept advice from
any ex-Vermonter who wished to
thus disgrace his native state. The
picture" he said, lis the property OF
the state of Vermont and it will not
be tempered with by any outsider. II
will hang in the state house Just as Il
has done. Vermont is in the habit or
standing on its. own bottom and II
will do so now"
