This remarkable woman, whose
maiden name was Estes, was born in
Lynn, Mass, February 9th, 1919. COM
ing from a good old Quaker family:
For many years she taught school, and
during her career as a teacher she be-
came known as woman OF an alert
and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge. and above ALL
she was possessed with wonderlully
sympathetic nature.
in 1913 she married Isaac Pinkham.
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a dauGh-
ter.
In those good old-fashioned days few
drugs were used in medicines: people
relied upon natures remedies. roots
and herbs, which are to-day recognized
as more potent and eficacious in con
trolling diseases than any com bination
of drugs.
Mrs Pinkham from her youth took
deep interest in medicine, in botany
the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics. and power over dis
ease; she believed that as nature
so bountifully provides food for the
body so she also provides medicine Tor
the ills and weaknesses of the body,
and as a wife, mother and sympathetic
friend, she often made use of her
knowledge of roots and herbs in pre-
pairing medicines for her family and
friends.
Knowing of so much suffering among
her sex, after much study and re-
search, Mrs. Pinkham believed that
the diseases of women have COM
mon cause, and she set TO work to
find common remedy-not at that
time as a source OF profit. but simply
that she might aid the suffering.
How her efforts have been rewarded
the women OF the world know to-day.
In 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity was too
much for the large real estate inter
ests of the Pinkham family. as this
class of business suffered most from
this fearful depression. SO when the
Centennial year dawned 1t found their
property swept away.
At this point the history of Lydia f.

their mother, combined forces TO re-
store the family fortune. They re-

ailing. Its success in those cases had
been wonderful-its fame had spread.
and calls were coming from miles
around for this efficacious vegetable
compound.
They had no money, and little
credit. Their first laboratory was the
kitchen, where roots and herbs were
stepped on the stove, gradually filling
a gross of bottles. Then came the
question of selling it. for always be-
fore they had given it away free.
They hired a job printer. to run on
some pamphlets setting forth the mer-
its of the medicine, now called Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
and these pamphlets We're distributed
by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New
York and Brooklyn.

the medicine. were, to great extent.
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others. and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts. the
family had saved enough money to
commence newspaper advertising on a
small scale, and from that time the
growth and success of the enterprise
was assured. until to-day Lydia Il.
Pinkham and her Vegetable Compound
have become household words every
where, and thousands of pounds OF
roots and herbs are used annually in
making this great remedy for woman's s
| ills.
Although Lydia E. Pinkham passed
to her reward some years ago, the per
| petuation of her great work was
| guarded by her foresight
During her long and eventful expert
| ence she was ever methodical in her
work and was careful TO preserve a
| record of every case that came to her
attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were thousands-received
careful study, and the details, includ'
ing symptoms, treatment and results,
were recorded for future reference,
and to-day these records, together with
thousands made since, are available to
sick women the world over. and repre-
sent vast collaboration of informa-
| ton regarding the treatment of wom-
ans ills which. for authenticity and
accuracy. can hardly be equaled in any
| library in the world.
Another act of foresight on the part
of Lydia E. Pinkham was to see that
some one of her family was trained to
carry on her work, and with that end
in view. for years before her death.

COLLEGE CRIMINALS.

Rarbarous Practices in Fraternal so.
ciety Initiations.-student Tied to
the Track and Killed by a Train
Lives of Railway Passengers I'M
periled.
Some clew to the real cause of foot
ball casualties may be found in recent
news items quite removed from the
field of college sports. In an Ohio col
lege there is grave suspicion that Il
student was bound and tied upon a
railroad track where he was killed by
train. The supposition is that this
was done as a part of an initiation
ceremony by college fraternity, or
secret society, and conclusive evil
dence has already been supplied of
other acts of torture and violence re,
sulting from this absurd and savage
practice.
In New York college town, an elec.
trio railway company has offered a
large reward for the person, supposed
to be a college student, who soaped
the tracks at dangerous curve and
grade, and who imperiled the lives OF
a number of passengers that were only
saved by the prompt and slllful act
of an expert motorman.
In Chicago the guests OF large
hotel were disturbed by the entrance
of a riotous party OF college stu
dents, who. conducted two blindfolded
youths that were set to fighting while
on their hands and knees upon the
floor This act is also supposed TO be
an example of college frat" initia'
tions.
These three news items, taken from
single days press report, show
clearly the need for instruction to
some American college students OF
what constitutes crime.

Every housekeeper should know
that If they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time. because it
never sticks to the iron. but because
each package contains sixteen ounces
one full pound-while all other Cold
Water Starches are put up in three
quarter-pound packages. and the price
is the same, 10 cents. Then again be-
cause Defiance Starch is free from all
injurious chemicals. II your grocer
tries to sell you twelve-ounce pack
age it is because he has stock on
hand which he wishes to dispose OF be-
fore he puts in Defiance. He knows
that Defiance Starch has printed on

+ To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new things
of everyday use in the market and
who is reasonably satisfied with the
old. we would suggest that trial of
Defiance Cold Water Starch be made
at once. Not alone because 1t is guar
anteed by the manufacturers to be su-
rerior to any other brand, but because
each 1Oc package contains 16 rs,
while all the other kinds contain but
u ozs. 1t is safe to say that the lady
who once uses Defiance Starch will use
no other. Quality and quantity must
win.
