The collecting Of rainbow wood is a
comparatively new industry in Maine.
Though the dwellers along the sea-
board have known for years that drift
wood picked up from the salt water
gave out iridescent tints when burned
in open CRATES, they attached no value
to the coloring of the flames until the
summer visitors came down east and
changed the picking Of driftwood from
an occupation akin to idleness into a
profitable calling.
For five years the whole coast line
Of Penobscot bay has been secured in
quest OF wood, and when the supply
grew scarce and the prices advanced
from $40 to $25 a cord. Boston chem
list grew rich by inventing a powder
which when burned with dry wood
yielded colors nearly as bright as the
genuine wood from the sea.

former years, went to the salt mea-

Oxford and Cambridge football is
never afire with the flaming spirit OF
sacrifice and daring which our college
game inspires in its champions, writes
Ralph d. Paine in the Century. Foot
ball in the English student life is
simply one feature of outdoor play,
which draws its thousands also to the
cricket fields and river. The Ameri-
can youth prefers his kind of football,
Just as he would scorn the notion OF
substituting the placid and tedious
rivalry of cricket for the swift crisis
compressed with nine sharp innings
of baseball. From his standpoint,
something vital is missing from sport
where players can find cheerfulness
in defeat and where onlookers arouse
to no more enthusiasm than at a mat
inee. When an American crew is
training for a Henley invasion, or
track team dares try conclusions with
the flower of Oxford and Cambridge,
1t would be rank disloyalty not to
strain every effort, at whatever sacri-
fee, to be as fit as possible.

Alpine Bird Compelled Thought Of

While among the dark, piney preci-

third time what he thought the most
wonderful OF all Alpine birds-a gray,
fiuttering. stealthy creature, about the
size of a sparrow, but of colder gray
and more graceful. which haunts the
sides OF the fiercest torrents. He
wrote: There is something more
strange In it than in the sea-gull-
that seems a powerful creature. and
the power of the sea not of kind so
adverse, so hopelessly destructive.
But this small creature, silent, tender
and light, almost like a moth in it's

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
n builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
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 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
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable 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
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 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. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinlkham 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.
