Pharmacy is one of the oldest of all the learned professions. It had its beginning more than four thousand years ago and has been practiced in one form or another ever since. The modern drug store hears little resemblance to the apothecary shop of old, but today’s pharmacUt is inspired by the same honorable principles that governed the conduct of his forebears. The pharmacist’s chief interests, now as then, are the relief of suffering and the prolongation of life. Prescriptions come first in our store, iour doctor may not like to recommend any particular pharmacy, but he will never complain if you bring his prescriptions to us.
