Em• the first Limo in over 10 0 years, this Brussels property has passed out of the hand of a druggist. In the mid-1800's the owner :WOS a druggist by the name of Dutton. In the late 1800's, Mr, G. A, lidadtitail Was the owner, i'ilf it. the .rui;sets area for over . 30 ',venni. And folloA that: ate cirtig- store was taken over by .`r.B.. Horsley and. Co.. Chemists and Booksellers." 1n 1903, my uncle, Prank R. Smith, an honour graduate in pharmacy from the. University trP Toronto came home to Brussels and took ever the drug store from Mr. Hursley, At that time, there were six or. seven doctors in Brussels:, a good prospect for a young druggist. Ili turn, Frank R. Smith Would, very ma have liked to haVe Seri On the store to another drug. gist. What with changing times in Ilttissols, and a shortage; of phar• Macy gradnates now, this was not to be, Because of it being a drugStore doittinbously for over 100 ydard, my uncle had oil hand an e$copt- ional c011eetion of pharinacy Ounipitient, Sortie of Which. Went hack to pioneer days. He had hoped to give 018 to the Phan, it MuSeuni at Niagara, This is a new project:. An • litetoric building there, Which had been a drugstore in the early 18001 s, flow once again belongs to the pharmacy profession. S6 that they Will be able to fit it out exactly as a drugstore was in by, gene years, they are seething the country for old time pharina equiiiniont. ThiS Ni itaey Mueettin 'is to be a per- Marient exhibition - of interest to the public, and specially to ,Canada's young people. On September 13th a "University of Toronto Pharmacy Professor had planned to visit Brussels Rexall Drugstore and to arrange to take some of the Prank B. Smith collection to Niagara. This Visit was cancelled as by that. date the store had changed hands. Since then in Toronto, twc, pharmacy professors have seen that part of the collection which we kept. They were much inter- ested and accepted the donation from the estate of Frank Roger- son Smith, a memorial to the dedi- cated druggists who had spent their years in Brussels. Sincerely R. M.
