PRECISION!
Every druggist of character and standing is deeply impressed
with the fact that mistakes in his line are fatal.
We never permit a careless prescriptionist to fill even the sim-
plest prescription sent to us.
As far as human prudence and skill can protect you, you are
protected here.
Filling prescriptions is our life work. We allow nothing to in-
terfere with the accuracy of our work.
We want to fill your prescriptions.

In this Saxon “Six” at $815 you get a lightness—a
luxury—a comfort—a beauty—a silence—a flexibility—a
power—that brings into question the high-priced cars. Un-
less you seek the extravagant degree in speed, or power,
or appointment, you'll find the Saxon “Six” meets your
ideals of a fine motor car.
No other car at anywhere near its price can measure
merit with Saxon “Six.” That is generally admitted.
May we give you a Saxon “Six” demonstration?
