In 1913 she married Isaac Pinkham,
4 builder.and real estate operator, and
their early married lifewas marked by
prosperity2and 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 q physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
periencs many of!them gained a won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkhaln 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
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-
prcssly 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 .eor her own family and friends.
Chief Of these was a rare combine
ton Of the tchoicest 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. 1tsleng g.hdnd severity,were too
much forthes large real estate interests
of tho Hnkham family, as this class
OF. business csn fered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen-
inial year dawned it found their prop

OF income had to be found.

printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi-

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 great extent,
