How Sir Joshua Reynolds Made Sue

Sir Joshua Reynolds was once com

the celebrated composer.
Haydn went to the residence Of the
painter and gave him a sitting, but
soon grew tired. Sir Joshua would
not paint a man Of such genius with a
stupid countenance and adjourned the
sitting. The same WEAKNESS of ex-

circumstance to the commissioning
prince, who contrived a stratagem.
He sent to the painters house a
pretty German girl in the service Of
the Queen. Haydn took his seat for
the third time, and as soon as the
conversation began to flag a curtain

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
SO good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women Of the whole world.
The Pinkharls had no money. and
little credit Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbg were stepped on the stove,
gradually filing a gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
It, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired q job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
cine. now called Lydia e. Pinkham'a
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons In
Boston, New York. aud Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties Of
the medicine were, to q great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam
lily Lad saved enough money to COM
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success Of
the enterprise weres assured, until to-
day Lydia e, PinlSham and her Vege-
table Compound have become house.
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia e. PinLham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventfui expe-
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pre-
serve record of every case thatcame to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advi.ss--
and there were thousands received

ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since. are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent vast collabora-
tion of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia e. Pinkham worked her
daughter in law, the present Mrs
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, andl
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell tho
direction of the work when it's origina
tor passed away. Tor nearly TWENTY
five years she has continued it, ana
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia K. Pinlham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother of large family, took
it up. With woman assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this great work and

AmiabIIity Reduced to Science.

The Mahratti women OF Western
India have the reputation OF being
model wives. They have solved the
problem Of domestic peace. There
are three things in the world that
they have thought for Because OF
this necessarily simple life they find
themselves looked upon as ideal
wives. First Mahratti woman thinks
OF her husband. She worships him.
He is her god. her priest, her religion.
Second, she loves her children. Third,
she takes interest in her jewelry.
These three and no more. This is her
life. No wonder she is sufficiently
amiable to be called ideal.

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of q wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1S43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and q
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days It
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained Il wou-
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics Of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinbham took a great interest
In the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
bountifully provides In the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods OF
all kinds; so, if we put take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi.
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a rare combina-
ton of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pscu-
liar to the female sex, and Lydia e. Pink
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this SO far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as a
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. It's length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen-
nial year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
OF income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham,s
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
