NOTES FROM NElL COUNT ON US Some of our customers really think that all we )rharmacists do is remove pills om one bottle and count them into another. It wouldn't take five years of college to learn how to do that. We have to know all there is to know about pills-- many pills -- in fact, thousands of different kinds. We must remember the actions, uses, dosage, proper storage, and dozens of other facts about every pill we dispense. You go to the best doctor -- no reason why you shouldn't have the best medicine -- and the best medicine §drtainly tnvolves more than counting. Nell's Pharmacy ergency Ph, 426-2165 Fifth & Franklin St. -- 426-3327 Open Dally 9:30 to 7:30 Saturdays- 9:30 - 6:00 33,000,000 AMERICAN FAMILIES CHOOSE NATURAL GAS FOR HEATING When we say" "Use electricity for the things it does best - and heating is not one of them," our logic is backed by the fact that more American households are heated with gas than are heated by all other forms of energy combined! We couldn't ask for a stronger testimonial. Flameless energy can't match the speed of the in- tense blue flame of natural gas. There's no wait- ing when you turn your gas heat thermostat up -or turn it down. Action is instant. But the same exercise with flameless heat is a long-drawn-out process. While you wait for an electric tempera- ture to come up-or go down-to the desired level, you're paying.., sometimes 'til it hurts. There are many wonderful uses for electricity. Home heating is not one of them, take it from 33,000,000 American households. It's the FLAME That Counts!
