~ Identified WITH the Ontteo OTu9
Company, Makers Of Rexall Rene
dies, Which Has Been More Than
Complying With the New Law, Even
Before Il Mas Thought Of in Con-
press.
The widespread interest In the Pure
Food Law, which went into effect jan
uary /, has reached apparently every
class in the community. The grocers,
the butchers, even the candlestick max
ers, are compelled now by Uncle sam
I to take the people into their confidence
and tell them just what they are sell
ling. Uncle Sam has left very little 70
chance. The strong arm of the WASH
1ngton Government has compelled man
ufacturers to state plainly on their ia
bells what adulterants have been USED
In preparing the package.
~ Perhaps ITO other class OF n1Rnufac-
kurers has been more deeply stirred
than the mixers Of patent medicines"
They are now compelled by law to state
on their labels the names of dangerous
& drugs used In the preparation OF their
remedies. Like all laws that work Tor
the benefit Of the public, the Pure
Y Food Law has made some manufac-
Aurers do some lively squirming; while
Il has brought joy to the hearts OF
j those who Were giving the people
/ square deal.
"a member OF Mcbride & Will Drug
4 Co, tine well known druggists, In dis
GUESSING this point with our reporter,
made some comments to interesting
y that they are reproduced here for the
benefit OF our readers.
There's a good deal Of satisfaction
1 In knowing you've done right said the
i member, "but there's much more in
L having that fact RECOGNIZED.
.sFour years ago we were one Of the
thousand leading druggists who met to-
4 gether to discuss the patent medicine
situation. All of US expreSsed dissatts-
\ faction at having to remedies
whose formulas were ur Town to u.s.
AS servants of the put of course,
& We sold whatever our called for,
I But we wanted to be able to sell our
customers at least ONE line Of patent
( medicines whose formulas we KNEW,
i and THEY knew-remedies whose re-
liability and efficiency we could back
{ up with our own names and reputa-
\ tions.
.sThe Rexall Remedies were the OUT
come OF that meeting, and our CO.
operative. company, the United Drug
4 Company, was formed to manufacture
y them
\. No Cure aIls III Rexail Plan.
mo cure -alls,' no secret; formulas
4 but 800 remedies, each the most sue
cessful and safest cure Known to the
medical world for specific human Ill,
and every formula known to every
Rexall druggist and his customers
THAT was the Rexall plan from the
{ beginning
.aThe great success OF Rexall Rene
B dies has been no surprise to US. They
-nre the TEST cures, ana they're sold
in the SQUAREST way. every Rexall
Remedy is sold with the understanding
= that the customer, If dissatisfied, will
get the purchase money back by simply
returning the empty package or bottle
I and we have always lived up to this
guarantee!
h .sThe agitation against Secret form
ula, patent medicines during the past
two years has never affected Rexall
Remedies in the least because their
formulas were NEVER SECRET-and
Seyerybody knew It!
Uncle Sam Adopts the RexaIl Plan.
..The United States Government has
1t last come around to our way of
thinking, and passed a Pure Food and
Drug Law. But we didn't need the
! Eovernment to push US 10 tell what is
IN our remedies-we thought people
ought to know that four years ago!
Even the Pure Food Law does not
compel other patent medicine manu-
facturers to tell you as much about
s their preparations as we voluntarily
tell you about Rexall Remedies, and al
ways have. Only the dangerous drugs
In other patent medicines are revealed
,tlie rest of their ingredients are still
! kept secret from you. You know
EVERYTHING that goes, into Rexail
Remedies their COMPLETE FORMU-
LAS have always been open to the
public. ss,
eve, like all the other Rexall drug
gists. have always had the formulas of
the 500 Rexall Remedies in our possess
{ sion. and have given them to thousands
OF our
"Dont you think we have reason to

Remedies? Don't you think YOU have
season TO put, faith in them'2
