DRUGGISTS.--'Tis with special pleasure we make favorable mention of this worthy firm. Although engaged in their present business here for only two years they enjoy a large acquaintance and liberal patronage. One rarely finds a drug stock carried by this enterprising firm. Both gentleman are practical in every business transaction, careful in the discharge of professional duties, courteous and affable at all times, and take special pains to please and accommodate their numerous customers. Their stock comprises the very best of everything usually carried by druggists, in fact this might truthfully be termed the "Palace Drug Store" of the west. In their employ they have Mr. Loud Rippey, a pharmacist of nineteem years experience. He is a native of Keithsburg, Ill., has resided among us for two years, commands the respect and confidence of all, is careful and trustworthy in the discharge of his duties. Mr. A. Cloughly, the senior member of this firm came to Audubon from Laramie City, Wyoming, two years ago and engaged in his present business. From the very first Mr. Cloughly has enjoyed an enviable reputation as an aggressive and public-spirited business man, and stands high in the social cirecles of Audubon. We cheerfully recommend this estemed [sic esteemed] firm to the public.
