In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
q 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 a physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained 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 vegetable foods of
all kinds; 30, IL we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-

Ills and weaknesses of the body, and

that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
ALI 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. Its 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-
NAL 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.

TUE YEAR ON THE STAGE
roo tinued from page 10]

Nth ambition, and, under the inven-
iva If a wonderful success few writer's
oan look into the future with more
~ nfidence of new conquests. The
cunning handiwork of Claiming Pol
lock- we have just seen in "The Bish-
on,s Carriage" And while only the
Generalization of a popular novel, one
NAV easily follow the clever elabor-
alton and extention of much that was
merely suggested in the book. In
the foregoing have treated the sub
iect assigned to me in manner quite
bevond local requirement In so do
ing | hope l have not overtaxed the
natience of the reader.
My object has been to take wide
view of an institution-the stage
which is so universal and interesting
in its scope. For, after all, the
worlds a stage and each of us plays
his little part. Like truthful mir,
ror it reflects our hopes, fears and
passions The shifting scenes, the
lights and shadows, the footlights be
bright or dim, the actors and actresses
with their mimic passions, are-one
and all-but reflex of the colors out
of which Life points the changing
pictures of the world.

Among the Poultry.

The years experimenting seems to
warrant the conclusion that the dry
feeding method Is as good as and no
better than the wet mash when the
latter Is properly handled.
Dry feeding with limited amount of
meat scrap will likely give better re-
suits In the hands of inexperienced or
overworked poultrymen than the regu-
lar method.
There is no special advantage In the
dry mash in feeding apartment OF yard
ed fiocks
With colony flocks dry feeding can be
arranged to save labor and promises to
make the colony method more profita-
BILE than any other for commercial
poultrymen.
The dry feeding method as applied to
the feeding Of young chicks is a very
different matter and will be discussed
later.-National Stockman and Farmer.

badly. Do not, however, omit the trim

as the surplus wood left on the vine

When done In early winter the vine
should be cut free from the trellis, let
