seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinlkham.
builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked bv
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and a
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 a physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained a won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease
She maintained that just as nature so
beautifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetab BILE foods of
all kinds; SO, if we but 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
1t was her pleasure to search these out.

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 pecu-
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 z. Pinkham's

TO IMPROVE SECOND STREET.
Property Owners Elect Officers of
New Society.

For the purpose of organizing in an
effort to have Second street properly
beautified and improved, property hold
ers living on that thoroughfare met
yesterday in the office of H. L. Thomas
in the Bell Telephone building and
completed the organization of the the
Second Street club. A constitution
and a set of bylaws were adopted.
The following were elected officers
President, Hugh L. Thomas; vice pres
ident, H G.. Whitney; treasurer, Glen
Miller; secretary, A. Richter
One of the first matters to be taken
up by the club will be to have Second
street cut through from Military ave-
nue. to Penrose drive. A petition ask
ing this action is now being circulated
among the property holders and resi-
dents of that section of the city. AS
soon as sufficient signatures have been
secured the petition will be presented
to the city council for action. The club
will also make an effort to have the
name of Military avenue changed to
that of Second avenue. Military is
practically a continuation of Second
street and for that reason the prom
erty holders think it should have the
same name.

REFORM IN GERMAN LAW
Berlin Judge Gained Many New
Ideas in This
Country.

Berlin, April s.-Judge Adolph Hart
mann of Berlin. who was the German rep
resentative al the St. Louis congress OF
lawyers and who spent fifteen months
travelling in the United States in order g
study court proceedings and American le-
gal institutions. has Just published an eX-
haustiVe treatise on American law with
PRACTICAL suggestions for the reform in
German court procedure, which is sched-
tiled for the next decade. Judge Hart
mann says he found many innovations in
the United States of which he recOnt-
mends limited initiation in Germany-Ifke
conditional sentences delayed during good
behavior and children's courts. He also
found that American laws sometimes an
ucipate ideas which German IefOrm5rs
have been vainly striving to realize.

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 Pinkhams had no money. and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs 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 a Job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
cine, now called Lydia z. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a 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 had saved enough money to com
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success of
the enterprise were assured, until to-
day Lydia Z. Pinkham and her Vege-
ia BILE Compound have become house
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu-
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward wears
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 eventful expe-
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful TO pre-
serve 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-receivcd
careful study, and the details, includ-
ing symptoms. treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since. are
yailable to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast cOllabore-
ton 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 z. Pinkham worked her
daughter in law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham, She was carefully instructed
IN all her haTd-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when its origina-
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs Pinlxham,
now the mother of large family, took
it up. With women assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this great work, and
probably from the Office of no other
person have SO many women been ad-
vised how to regain health. Sick wo-
men, this advice is yours for Health"
freely given if you only write to ask
for it.
Such is the history of Lydia E. PING
hams Vegetable Compound made
from simple roots and herbs; the one
great medicine for women's ailments,
and the fitting monument to the noble
woman whose name it bears.

of the brain that makes the steer
"batty' or crazy. Many of these
editors are "Locoed" from hate of

writer's to go straight into a sys-

featuring any sort of falsehood
through which to vent their spleen.
We assert that the common citi-
zen has a right to live and breathe
air without asking permission of
the labor trust and this has brought
down on US the hate of these ed

with their libels, is it harsh for us
to get judgment against them and

take notice:

fifty thousand dollars to be covered by
a like amount from them, or any one

ounce of old bread or any other in

wheat and barley with a little salt and

Our factories are so clean that one

The work people. both men and wo-
| men, are of the highest grade in the
state of Michigan, and according to
the state labor reports are The highest
paid in the state for similar work
Let us tell you exactly what you will
see when you inspect the manufacture
of Grape-Nuts. You will find tremen-
dous elevators containing the choicest
wheat and barley possible to buy.
IheSe grains are carried through long
conveyOrs to grinding mills, and there
converted into flour. Then the ma
chimes make selection of the proper
quantities of this -four in the proper
proportion, and these parts are blend
ed into general flour which passes
over to the big dough mixing ma
chimes, there water, salt and a little
yeast are added and the dough knead-
ed the proper length of time.
Remember that previous to the bar
ley having been ground it was passed
through about one hundred hours of
soaking in water, then placed on warm
floors and slightly sprouted develop
ing the diaStase in the barley which
changes the starch in the grain into a
form of sugar.
Now after we have passed it into
dough and it has been kneaded long
enough, it is moulded by machinery
into lOaves about IS inches long and
or inches in diameter. 1t ia put into
this shape for convenience in second
cooking.
These great Ioaves are sliced nv ma
chinery and the slices placed on wire
trays, these trays, in turn. placed on
great steel trucks, and rolled into the
secondary ovens. each perhaps IS or
so feet long. There the food is subject
ed to long low heat and the starch
which has not been heretofore trans
formed, is turned into a form of sugar
generally known as Post Sugar 1t
can be seen glistening on the granuIes
Of Grape-Nuts if held toward the
light, and this sugar is not poured over
or put on the food as these prevari-
Gators ignOrantly assert. On the con-
traTy, the sugar eXudes from the in
terror of each little granule during the
process of manufacture, and reminds
one of the little white particles of
sugar that come out on the end of a
