YOUR DOCTOR
AT ALL TIMES
The doctor is the most important person in any neighborhood. On him in large measure, de
pends the health of a people.
In these war times the doctor is a doubly valuable person. Those who minister to the sick in
Transylvania and adjacent counties are making calls day and night.
There aren’t as many doctors in Western North Carolina counties as there were before the
dastardly Japs struck at Pearl Harbor. Those who are within the age limits laid down by our
government are wearing the uniform of their country and caring for our wounded fighting men.
This present situation is one in which Varner’s performs a most important war time service—as
your source for the first aid supplies and simple medications that you should have in the home,
in order to be prepared to handle minor illnesses and mishaps.
When your doctor prescribes the aides to getting well, we are prepared to fill his prescriptions
promptly, “to the letter,” with fresh drugs guaranteed to have full potency.
By keeping well you help keep the home front strong to produce every need for the fighting
front, for a victorious termination of this war. Your doctor is doing his part: It is up to us and
you to do ours!
WE FILL ANY DOCTOR’S PRESCRIPTION
