pTO MRS. PINKHANI'S
LABORATORY.

lEtorial from Banner of Light Rostou, Sept 49, 'S2l
One day last week-in company with
Or. s. B. Britain aud Mr.. Charles Nc
Arthur, of New York-we visited the
residence and laboratory of Mrs. LYDIA
K. PINKHAM, of Lynn, and there wit
messed the proofs of the wonderful de-
Yelopment of the great business now
conducted by this lady. We were pre-
pared To be favOrahly impressed by the
woman who has achieved such unequal
ed distinction within the short period
Of five years, as perhaps renders her
more widely and generally known than
any individual of her sex in the cOun-
try. We have repeatedly heard it inti-
mated that Mrs. Pinkham Is an imagi-
nary parsonage, but this is a great mis-
take. We were introduced to lady OF
eomely presence, but possessing a far
more delicBte and spiritual organization
than we had expected to find In the
person of woman who has accomplish
ell so much on the material plane or
life. The pictures of herself-whlch
may be seen in the papers all over the
eOntinent-bear a strong resemble lance
TO the original, in the general outline
Of the head and the benign expression
Of the cOuntenance. Her conversation
reveals her natural refinement and gem
eraI intelligence, while her voice Is
modulated by the supremacy of those
gentle attributes which appropriately
belong to the higher types of woman
hood.
The rapid extension of the business of
supplying the large and constantly in
ereaSing demand of Mrs. Pinkham's
Remedies-mOr especially those which
are sppcif ally adopted to the renovation
Of the impaired constitutions Of women
is something quite extraordinary and
cannot fail to excite astOnlShment
wherever the facts are known. her
principal laboratory is admirably ar
ranged and supplied with all necessary
and improved apparatus for extracting
the medicinal and curative properties
Of the plants, herbs, roots, barks, berries,
etc, which she employs for the healing
Of suffering humanity.
Mrs. Pinkham and her worthy hus-
band have sustained a great loss and
been deeply afflicted in the recent death
Of two noble sons. They were young
men of uncommon character and great
promise. Fired by the ambition to
benefit others, and at the same time to
build up the fortunes of the family, they
unfortunately Overtaxed and exhausted
their physical energies by too con-
slant and intense application to bust
ness. which sad event has placed in the
hands of surviving brother the mer
camille department of the business. This
gentleman is evidently equal to the
heavy responsibility now imposed upon
him, and under his judiciOus manage
ment the business is prOspering in de-
gree that has more than realized the
most sanguine expectations.
The sales of Mrs. Pinkham's medi- |
eines for the current year are likely to |
reach the round sum of 100000, and the |
indications warrant the conclusion that |
the receipts of next year may exceed |
half a million of dollars. To avoid pay |
ing the heavy duties imposed by the |
Canadian government on proprietary
medicines, Mr.. 'inkham has just erected
q laboratory for the manufacture and
sale of the remedies in British America. |
We are always glad when intelligent
enterprise is crowned with success and
the sceptre Of Influence placed in the
hands of honest industry; more especial |
ly do we rejoice when the enterprise
as is the case in the present instance
aims at the accomplishment of beneti. |
cent ends. Mrs. Pinkham and her no. |
Bile family have fairly earned the great |
success they have won.
Let our readers remember that Mrs. |
Pinkham does not relieve human suffer
ing after the manner so prevalent |
among the doctors of the allOpathic
school To relieve pain she does not
destroy sensation by the use of power
full narcotics which is the evil device
of professional ignorance of the healing
Hrt--but her remedies assist nature to
throw off the disease by imparting a
new energy to all the organic functions
of human life. May the time soon come
when we shall witness the end of the
method of killing people to
terminate their sufferings.
