Prescription Cost

The Cut-Rate pharmacist filled the prescription and handed the nearly deaf old man the bottle of pills saying, "That'll be $16.50."

Just then the drug store phone rang and the pharmacist answered.

As he did, the old man placed 50 cents on the counter and walked out of the store with his prescription.

The clerk realized the mistake and shouted, but the old man did not hear and kept walking.

When the pharmacist finished his call the clerk explained what had happened.

The pharmacist scooped up the 50 cents and put it in the cash register, saying to the clerk, "Oh well, 30 cents profit is better than nothing."

Doctors On Strike

Doctors at a hospital in Brooklyn, New York have gone on strike. Hospital officials say they will find out what the doctors demands are as soon as they can get a pharmacist over there to read the picket signs.

The Pharmacist

A lady walks into the drug store and asks the druggist for some arsenic. The druggist asks, "Ma'am, what do you want with arsenic?"

The lady says, "To kill my husband."

"I can't sell you any for that reason," says he druggist.

The lady then reaches into her purse and pulls out a photo of a man and a women in a compromising position. The man is her husband and the lady is the druggist's wife. She shows the picture to the druggist.

He looks at the photo and says, "Oh, I didn't know you had a prescription!"
