Of Philadelphia College of rtaarmaey, Apotbecarjr, South Main St. The Old Yeur bus drawn to a close, nml with the beginning of the S'evr Year we wish to thank the public for their patronage und recognition of our efforts to tlu our full duty. We are fully con scious thut it Is to them that we owe the unexiected success of the past year, in which our business bus been more tbun doubled, and we can only regard it as a new evilcnce that our business maxims ate such as to cause our customers to have confidence in us and attract those who are cautious in dealing with any Phurmacist until they bun become fully assured of the nature and extent of bis business principles. In out dealing with the public we realise that the most scru pulous cure and honesty are paramount in importance. If these are rirtues in all ordinary business transactions, tbvy become sucred duties in rbarmacy, and without them no one can be a true Phar macist. Tbe health, maybe tbe life, of those dealing with the Apothecary de pends upon them. He consider it our most sacred duty to shun adulterations and spoiled as well as inferior drugs. fbey constitute an evil from which Phar macy sutlers no less than tbe public. Tbe :vil is not a new one, inaugurated in late years; it has existed as long as there were men whose cupidity was stronger than their sense of justice, and it will doubtless continue as long as there may be men with conceptions of business so vogue that tbey expect to purchase gold tor the money value of dross. There are no other moral principles required fur transacting a Pharmaceutical business than are necessary for any other business. Unwavering integrity thut remains unin fluenced by the visions of gold along tbe road of questionable or deceitful prac tices is tlie only foundation for success that is worthy tbe name; it is so in every pursuit, and more particularly in h.i:niM). M.jrvi a mutter ot necet- lity it must hr cnnit'tnerf with ontattt vigilance 10 a" dm-, ti m- v .i : j..urf all possible SMlutir 's. Tbi.se are the principle which h r tuJeavored to iiir up to, and to wUKtt we trust our increasing success is due. H e hope our former pations will show the same kindness towatd us in the fu ture that they have in the past, knowing that no uction of ours will ever make them regret a continuance ol their fa vors. Yours truly. J. S. GRANT, Ph. C, Phurmacist. Si S. Main St., Asheville, N. C. WHITLOCK'S Special Announcement for the Year and Season of 1890.
