No Change Necessary
In RexaII Remedies

The new Pure Food Law requires every pat
ent medicine manufacturer to tell just what dan
gerous drug is in his medicine. Certain PERIOD
icals interested in patent medicine reform have
declared that the formulas of many patent medl-
cines will have to be changed before the manu-
hcturers will dare conform with this law. these
periodicals also declare that the public will never
know of these changes, and never know "hat
these remedies formerly contained.
This suspicion, however, cannot rest upon kex-
all Remedies. You have absolute proof that
Rexall Remedies have not been changed to, con-
form with the new Pure Food Law, because 1Oa
kuev the formulas Of fAesersmedies four gears ago!
The Rexall formulas were neosy secret. lhe
thousand Rexall druggists have always known all
the Rexall formulas and given them to every Gus
toner who asked for them.
No one Rexall Remedy was ever claimed to
be a "cure-all" ll"-each of the 300 remedies is de-
signed to cure certain human ill-and does 1t.
These 800 remedies were selected from among
thousands because they were the most reliable
and successful cures in the world. Far from
wishing to conceal the formulas Of these remedies,
we are proud to tell just what they are, and al
ways have been.
That's where the Rexall plan goes further to
safeguard you than does the Pure Food Law.
Even now you'll only know the dangerous drugs
IN other patent mediclnes' "hle you nave eim"J'
been able to know the complete formulas OF Kex-
all Remedies!
The Rexall guarantee has been the greatest
evidence of the sincerity back of the Rexall Rem
edies. For four years Rexall druggists have
offered to return the money to any one who
brought back an empty Rexall bottle or package
and said they were not satisfied.
We, as one of the Rexa druggists, feel gen
nine satisfaction in having been able to supply
this community for four years with one line OF
medicines which the United States Govern
ment by its new Pure Food Law shows were
alsvays made right and sold right, and have de-
served every bit of the faith you have had in
them.
The Pure Food Law may necessitate changes
in other medicines, but it only endorses Rexall
Remedies.
