A D VER TISEMENTS. 



THERE ARE CHEAPER 

 CAPSULES THAN OURS 



if only the first cost is to be considered . We 

 could materially reduce the cost of our cap- 

 sules by the employment of a cheaper grade 

 of gelatin and by paying less attention to the 

 details of manufacture ; but in the end it 

 would cost you more, and so will the capsules 

 that are offered at less than our quotations. 



Cheap gelatin can only make a cheap cap- 

 sule — discolored, brittle, ofttimes odoriferous, 

 and subject to climatic changes. Such cap- 

 sules will prove exceedingly expensive to 

 handle ; ofttimes more will be broken than 

 used. Lack of proper attention to details of 

 manufacture will result in ill-fitting caps and 

 bodies, and caps and bodies that do not fit 

 perfectly are a source of great annoyance and 

 loss, and not only loss of capsule, but loss of 

 drug as well. Another point : A dissatisfied 

 customer is far more costly than any slight 

 difference in the price of capsules, and this is 

 very likely to happen when caps and bodies 

 do not fit perfectly. 



Where Parke, Davis & Co.'s capsules are 

 handled exclusively, trouble is an unknown, 

 quantity. They are the best; always have 

 been, always will be. The first cost is a little 

 more, but they are the cheapest in the end. 

 Manufactured of the finest French gelatin — 

 no discoloration, no airholes, no obnoxious 

 taste, no disagreeable smell. Caps and bodies 

 fit, no waste of capsule, no waste of drug. 

 Pliable — not brittle — and perfectly soluble. 



We believe you will always find it to your 

 own interest, as well as ours, to favor us with 

 your orders. Having specified P., D. & Co. r 

 upon receipt of goods examine carefully the 

 labels, for our packages are being closely imi- 

 tated—one way of acknowledging the superi- 

 ority of our capsules.
