Medicines cannot be too carefully com43 pounded -health demands care and quality. The neatness of our prescription room is above criticism. Implements and bottles are spotlessly clean.

We never fill a second-hand bottle, for no one knows what it might have contained since it first left the store. Second-hand corks are never used. We fill every prescription just as the doctor writes it and only the purest drugs obtainable are used. May we fill your next prescription? G. A.
