Prem the LOWELL, Asss., Norning Mda)
Hoods Calendar for 1895 may now
q obtained at the drug stores and
.very one who gets one secures "a
hing Of beauty" Indeed, in the
lovelty of the design and the exquisite
less of the coloring, the calendar sur
,sssss all previous issues, just rs Hoods
Calendars have for many years sur
assed all others. The calendar is
ormed in the shape of heart and is
rnamented with two beautiful child
aces which have always been charm
ng features of Hoods Calendars.
IN the right is representa-
ion Of Winter" the sweet little face
nth light brown eyes peeping out from
dainty cap, while the snow flakes are
alling all about. The face on the left
picture of Summer" and is
ighted with blue eyes and the head
overed with a hat decorated with
right flowers. The shades are per-
ectly blended and the whole picture is
urrounded by tasty border. The
lesign was made by Miss Maud Hum
)hrey, one of the most gifted and
celebrated water color artists in the
COUNTRY. The calendar gives the usual
Information concerning the lunar
changes, and upon the back is printed
l table of astronomical events especi-
,ly calculated for c. l. Hood & Co.
The calendar is issued to advertise
Hoods Sarsaparilla, Hoods Pills and
)lher preparations of the firm. and
g regarded as most difficult to manufac-
,ure, Its novel shape being such as no
other concern has ever undertaken to
produce in large quantities. 1t was
necessary topurchase several additional
machines especially for this job, so
hat there was a very large amount of
machinery and whole regiment of
)eople employed in this branch of the
extensive business at the big laboratory
n Lowell. During the five months when
he calendars were being made there
we're actually employed every day in this
,art of the work At the laboratory six
printing presses, one bronzing machine,
our eye-lettlng machines, seven wire
titchers, eight large paper cutters and
80 persons. At the beginning of the
york this large force was able to pro-
luce about 100000 calendars day
md for several weeks towards the close
he daily production amounted to
40, 900 calendars. The edition of
Hoods Calendars for 1895 was 10, 5OO,-
100, or about 2, 500, 900 more than last
ear.
This, Of course, is An immense num-
,er, but tho general reader has only
Sint conception Of its magnitude until
le is reminded that the little 500, 900
added to the ten millions is considered
IN enormous edition by many OF the
argest advertisers in the world. If the
:alenders were laid down in . single
inc they would reach almost one thou
and miles, and if the different pieces
n the calendar pads were laid in this
say they would extend almost three
housand miles, or from New York to
liverpool. For the past eight years,
Hoods Calendars have exceeded in
number every other similar publication
out It was hardly dreamed that they
would ever come up to the mammoth
sdition which was demanded this year.
lowell has long been proud of this
great industry which has given her
almost world wide reputation, and 1t
s . matter of no small importance
hat so many of her people find plea
wnt and profitable employment in the
work of making and advertising the
great blood purifying medicine, Hoods
Sarssparilla, whose actual cures in
.very part of the country have been
he wonder of the medical profession
md have caused many hearts to over
low with gratitude.
Those who are unable to obtain
Hoods Ssrsaparilla Calendars at the
lrug stores should send six cents in
lamps for one, or 10 cents for two to
