COMMERCIAL CURES WORST CASE OF HICCUPS

The Pharma Plus drug store chain began showing a TV commercial this week that has the holder of the world record for hiccups calling a Pharma Plus druggist for help. This little drama plays up the chain's 1-800 phone line which is staffed by pharmacists seven-days-a-week, 24-hours-a-day.

The phone line is part of Pharma Plus' Pharma Answers program launched in September. Advertising is created by Roche Macaulay & Partners Advertising of Toronto.
