People deal at Riker’s Drug Stores because they know they can do so with every confidence in the professional knowledge and integrity of every Riker employee. And because they know that 63 years of square deal- ing stands back of everything Riker sells. Nor does it lessen thelr confidence in the least for Riker's customers to know that the decided ad- vantage of buying for 19 stores makes Riker prices lower than elsewhere.
