I remember this drugstore in Roscoe from my childhood
days. It was on the main street, nearest the railroad
tracks, about 2 or 3 blocks north of the bank
building. It was a large building with a large
picture window in front, with a good-sized soda
fountain. The reason I remember that so distinctly is
because it had a marble counter with high,
wrought-iron bar stools--very Victorian. It must have
been quite opulent in its heyday.
