There is one line of medicines in which
ehamge formulas IS ,eeessa'yi in order to conform
with Uncle Sans new Pure Food and Drug Law.
Rexall Remedies were made to conform with
this law in every particular fur gears ago
long before this law thought Of!
At that time one thousand leading druggists of
the country, owing to the unsatisfactory way in
which they had to sell patent medicines decided
to form cooperative company and manufacture
a line of remedies for which they could stand a6-
soluteLy responsible from their knowledge and con-
trof of ingredients in these cures.
The plan of Rexal Remedies was the result.
Could these thousand druggists heu haze fore
seen the neav PMre Food Lac, and kuozow every
clause of it, they could not haze made tie RenaN
PLAN conform TO IL more closely.
There is nothing secret about Rexa Remedies,
and there uea'ey avas!
For years Rexall ads have told the public that
each Rexall druggist had the formula of every
Rexa Remedy on file, and would willingly give
any formula to whoever asked for it.
Moreover, Rexall Remedies protect you
than the Pure Food Law does. You now only
know the dangerous drugs in patent medicines
we know and have always known clv7yHzing
in Rexa Remedies and have always been glad
to show you the printed ronxbleke. formulas.
No Rexall Remedy is "cure-all... Each of
the 800 remedies has a formula which years of
experience have shown to be the most reliable
cure for a certain human i'll.
The proof Of our confidence in Rexall Remedies
is the Rexall guarantee Every Rcxall sale we
make is with the understanding that if the pur-
chaser is dissatisfied he or she can get back the
money paid by simply returning the empty
package or bottle. For four years the sincerity
of this offer has never been challenged
