sufficient for omplaint that
occur on Sun:1ay , onseq entl y
adelJuatc preparations cannot be
calculatcd so t hat purchases can
be made Saturday night. This
s a good move 011 the part of
Mr. McComas to observe the dav
of rest as best he qn. Now , fr
the two other drug stores would
adopt the same or a &imilar policy
and ea h keep open only two or
three ho"rs , at a eparate lime ,
enc drug store in town would bo
open vcry nearly a11 the time and !
thereby thc getting of a prescription - '
scription filled made possible ,
while the druggists and their
a5 istants would secure rest from
work , which they c rti1inly
deserve.

Sko-vv's Rotary
Disc Sllarpener ?
Wc , and the man ufacturcrs of Sl < ows Disc Sharpcner ,
. .guarantl.e ! that it will do bettcr wor1e and sta ) ' sharp
twice as long. 'rhe reason is , in rolling out a disc it is
made larger froUl threc-eigllts to five.eights of an inch ,
and the steel ig made hare and smooth , making it cut I
easier. 'l'he machine docs not Cllt thl' ( Hsc away , but .
rolls it out cold. By rolling , the steel is subjected to an .
enormous prcssure , that compresses the Jiber of the
metal which results in a larger disc and producing' a I
roll temper which causes it to stay sharp much longer.
