DRUGS In daily urae, as Cod Liver Oil. Glycerin Linseed Meal, etc. } I have bought largol ! and am selling at one-half the pric charged by mj predecessor, and for every ; article my price for tho finest quality will I be found as low, and generally lower, than < it can bo purchased elsewhere. DISPENSING Is done with tbe greatest care, and with Drugs? selectod for the purpose, and m no caße does my charge for medicines exceed the prices now cirrent m any establish- ment m town. vetebina"Sy"medicines Are still prepared from my original recipes. Testimonials aa to their value have boon freely given me by Livery Sfcablekeepers, Farmers, Dealers, from Mr John Grige, and other well known breeders. As my experience was gained m a largo veterin- ary establishment, witij a member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, and not solely from booke, my medicines and advice maty be relied on.
