If every man were to depend entirely
on his own idea or act only on his ini-
tiative at all times, the world would
stand still.
The appeal of reactionaries of all
times has been, "Do not change,"
Insist on what' you are usedd to,"
"Leave us alone." ' These are the
slogans of "standpatters" of all ages,
and they invariably adopt this attitude
from motives of self-interest.
Take the matter of packaged meat-
tines,
edi-
n _. for instance. The eam i
cr es, n pan of g
"insist on what you ask for" is a des-
perate effort to stem back the public
demand for a square deal and greater
value for their money both in quantity
and quality.
The old idea of mysterious and magie
formulas is about played out. The
druggists- are meeting the public de -
mend for better value by selling pre-
parations of which they know the for-
mulae, and which they know to contain
only pure ingredients compounded in a
way that is not injurious and is best
fitted for the purpose for which they
are intended.
Don't take too much stock in the
frantic efforts made by some parties
to Make you believe that the druggist
in advising you is attempting
to de-
ceive
eceive ah rob. Is he likely to do so
t
Could he stay. in business if he did?
Think it over.
