WOLF & THOMPSON. GOOD ADVICE : ® The price of a prescription compounded from cheap chemicals very naturally will be lower than the price of one compounded from the purest and best materials. But you do not care to save a few cents, nickels or dimes, as the case may be, when you purchase medicine you want to save the health—perhaps the life—of the sick one at home. 0. F.
