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 q
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days II
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 q won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took 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.

all kinds; SO, il we but take the pains

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
and prepare simple and effective medi
cines for her own family and friends
Chief Of these was a rare combinn
tion of the choicest medicinal root,
and herbs found best adapted for tn,

Other Musical Ears.

A vioiinist says spiders are notori.
0usly and historically fond of music.
At a performance in Missouri the con.
cert hall was made disagreeable by 4
sudden invasion of spiders. which
were drawn by his violin out from the
cracks and crannies of the ancient
building. They crawled about the
Aoor and onto the stage. and he could
see the annoyed audience stamping on
the Insects. The writer adds that he
has known a small garden snake to
be attracted by piano playing. and a
young calf to whisk his tail and
prance about most gleefully at the
first notes of a French horn. His
ueck would curve about proudly. his
hoofs tread lightly. and his ears wae
joyousIy when the footing began. and
he never quieted down till the music
ceased.

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
SO good for their woman friends and
ncighbors was equally good for the
women of the whole world.
The Pinlhams had no money, and
little credit Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were stepped on the stove,
gradually filling u gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it. for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-
cine, now called Lydia l.. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinlsham sons in
Boston, New York. and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties Of
the medicine were. to a great extent,
sclf-advertising, for whoever used II
recommended 1t to others, and the de-
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam.
lily had saved enough money to COM
mcnce newspaper advertising and from
| that time the growth and success of
| the enterprise were assured, until to-
day Lydia L. Pinlxhum 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. 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 TOT 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-receired
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
available to sick women the world
over, and represent q 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 f. Pinl,ham worked her
daughter in law. the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
In all her hard-won knowledge, and

Winston Churchill IN an address
that he made in Concord recently
praised the New Hampshire farmer.
Ours he said. is a state fitted
above all others for a summer resort.
New Hampshire. with its superb eli
mate. its mountains. its lakes and
forests. will in a generation or two
be one great pleasure ground-a vast
park. dotted with beautiful villas. to
which will come each summer fam.
lilies from all parts OF America.
In anticipation OF this many farm
ers are learning to conduct hotels.
They are building cottages for sum
mer visitors. Some of them, too, are
taking boarders.
And am glad TO say that the New
Hampshire farmer is in a position to
take boarders, because, unlike the
farmers in other states that | could
name. he does not send all his good
things to the city. | once boarded at
