We are

We are trade doctors and builders. proud and happy to say that everyone who has gone in with us and been true to himself, has made money by so doing, that for every dollar we have made through the druggists of this country, the druggists have made through us a hundred dollars.

We claim and are able to increase the earning power of a drug store from two to ten times?

There is no mystery about this. It means a better conservation of wasted energy or unused resourses; an economy that saves dollars where dimes have been previously saven, and saves the dimes as well, taking better advantage of the means within your reach and creating new and desirable ones.

There are means and methods of getting trade that carry back as far as trade itself. We see, seize and utilize these understandingly and to better advantage because, added to natural aptitude, we have devoted long years of study and experience to this single object.

The same thing relates to the question of economy. Larger earning power and economy of the greater kind are the two potent forces that make for that SUCCESS which is spelled with capitals.

Do you want that kind? Well, we can give it to you, but don't say yes and act no.

'Tis said that knowledge is power, but knowing how to apply it is really what creates the power.

You have knowledge. You also have opportunity.

We teach its better application which yields business, which in turn yields money, which, rightly used, yields the comforts and pleasures of life in greater degree.

How can we do this? In many ways. Let us tell you one. Soon after the unfortunate fire which destroyed our factory, a firm of druggists asked us to look over plans for fitting up a drug

store.

Owing to the large volume of orders already booked, and the necessity of equipping a new

factory to fill them, we were obliged to decline. Recently, we were asked to look this stove over, with a view to fitting another for the same firm and to give our ideas of how we could improve it.

This is our conclusion and will be our report; - They are paying, more than ten thousand dollars rent, which under a ten years' lease will amount to over one hundred thousand dollars,— Now please follow closely our reasoning.— The rent is worth its price or they would not have paid it. They need all the added room. In this store, planned and built by others, they have 102 feet of silent salesman display case.

To display goods is to sell them. 'Tis for this privilege they pay rent. Our plan of the same room, with equal or better facility for clerks and customers, and a fairer display of goods per foot, gives 166 feet of display cases and 1200 feet of single running shelves for holding goods.

In other words, we are able through our greater knowledge of arrangement, to give nearly or quite 50% more of available room, which in ten years will amount to the tidy sum of $50,000,00. You can see here opportunity for saving the modest fee of the doctor, at jeast.

Meantime, the cost of utilizing these advantages would amount to less than twenty-five cents per day. A good doctor's advice is cheap at this price; a poor one's dear at any price.

Applied knowledge is a power for earning or saving.

The same proportion of opportunity for earning or saving exists in every drug business.

We can tell you how to do it in yours when we have felt your pulse, taken your temperature and looked at your tongue, all of which is done without cost to you or placing you under any obligation except not to tell the other doctor.

Young tongue please; - just to affix a two cent stamp in answer to this.
