SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF LYDIA E. PINKtiAM
And True Story of How the Vegetable Compound

restore tho 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 Pinkhams had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory herbs were steeped on the stove, Then came the question of selling it. for always before they had given it away freely. They hired . job printer to run of some pamphlets setting forth the merits of the medi- cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these wero distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York. and Brooklyn.
 The wonderful curative properties Of tho 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 E. Pinkham and her Fegs- table 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 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 eventful expe- rience she was ever methodical in her work and she was always careful topre- 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-received 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, arc available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collabora- 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 F. Pinkham worked her daughter in law, the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-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. Pinl1ham dropped her pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham, 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. Pink. hams Vegetable Compound made from simple roots and herbs; the one great medicine for women's ailments, and the fitting monument to the noble l woman whose name it bears.
The Nevada County picayune., 1906-12-07

and Investigating mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa- thetic nature.
 In 1s43 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 8 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 knov. ledge 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- tion 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 8 labor of love.
 But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were toe 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. Pinl1ham's Vegetable Compound was made known to the world.
 The three sons and the daughter, with their mother, combined forces to
