Second because they give their customers ex- actly what they ask for without being talked to death by a patent medicine clerk trying to sell them something just as good Third. their past rep utatlon speaks for itself. Residents, after residing here for a short time, always hear the word passed around, "Go to Doran's for pure drugs and q square deal" They do not have to hang out a red flag and lure the Gus toners in.
