IWISH to notify that, following tho example of the Grocer*, Drapers, and other Traders, and to meet the very limited capacity of the public for spending money, I have made a thorough revision of my prices, and although the new Cus- toms Tariff imposes a duty of nearly 27 per cent on patent medicines, I have decided to adhere to the old prices as far as possible. DRUGS In daily übo, as Cod Liver Oil, Glyceiine, Linßetd Meal, etc., I have bought largely, and am selling at one-half the pries charged by my predecessor, and for every article my price for the finest quality will be found aB low, and generally lower, than it can be purchased elsewhere. DISPENSING Is done with the greatest oare, and with Drugs selected for the purpose, and m no case does my charge for medicines exceed the priceß now enrrent m any establish- ment m town. VETERINARY MEDICINES Are still prepared from my original recipes. Teßtimonialß as to their value have been freely given me by Livery Stablekeepers, Farmers, Dealers, from Mr John Grigg, and other well known breeders. As my experience was gained m a large veterin- ary establishment, with a member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, ana not solely from books, my medicines and advice may be relied on.
