SICK FOLKS AND SUCCESS

UNDOUBTEDLY the success Of
~ this office--and it is success
has been due to the fact that the
keynote has been to give honest,
conscientious service.
We have aimed to think of the
patients needs first of ALL aimed to
give little more than we promised
TO give and have never promised
what could not be made good.
These standards backed up by
the very best of laboratory methods
make our methods and equipment
superior, believe, to anything in
the South.
All ordinary examinations and
consulta tons are free of charge.
Those who appreciate this kind
of service will be welcome to call
