In your mind, it immediately iconjures up such syn-
onyms as "rightness" and "honesty". A goodly
company. And when you place your health—some-

have a right to demand integrity.

For over half a century, the registered pharmacists
on our Rix staff have stood ready to serve you at
a moment's notice. Carefully, they have kept pace
with science and medicine; just as carefully they
have guarded the integrity the name Cunningham's
