and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
ell, possessed Of wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham,
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 Won
derful knowledge of the curative prpo-
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinllham 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 anu WEAKNESSES OIL UHo DOQy, ana
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 pecll-
liar to the female sex, and Lydia E.
Pinllham's friends and neighbors learn
ed 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 inter
ests 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.

with their mother, combined forces to

Children Derive Many Traits from Their
PARKWAY Ancestry.
No two children, even in the same
household, are alike. Twins, born in
the same hour, and externally bearing
lineaments which possess such close
resemblance that strangers do not
know the little ones apart, are often
very dissimilar in disposition and
mental traits. Who can tell what pc
culiarities, derived from some fara-
way ancestor-a little child has inher-
parent, may be repeating in her tenn
permanent, her looks, and her ways
a great grandmother long since van
ished from the earth Each mother
for each child needs to make special
study, and she need not be surprised
to find herself so often baffled and at
her wits end to solve certain prob
lens, and to manage in certain un-
looked for contingencies. If she will
take the trouble to keep a record OF
her children, setting down in jour-
nal day by day the interesting Incl
dents, the small happenings, and the
conclusions at which she arrives, she
may be able by-and-by to assist other
puzzled mothers. OF one thing the
mother may be very sure, and that is
that time is we'll spent which is de-
voted to the intelligent understanding
of what is really for her child's good
The little one whose life is ruled

How 1t Often Happens From Coffee.
y had no idea" writes Duluth
man. "that it was the coffee had
been drinking all my life that was
responsible for the headaches which
we're growing upon me, for the dyspep-
sia that no medicines would relieve,
and for the acute nervousness which
untitled me not only for work but also
for the most ordinary social functions
But at last the truth dawned upon
me. forthwith bade the harmful bev-
erage a prompt farewell, ordered in
some Postum and began to use it. The
good effects of the new food drink
were apparent within a very few days
My headaches grew less frequent,
and decreased in violence, my stom-
ach grew strong and able to digest
my food without distress of any kind,
my nervousness has gone and l am
able to enjoy life with my neighbors
and sleep soundly O. nights. My
physical strength and nerve power
have increased SO much that I can do
double the work used to do, and
feel no undue fatigue afterwards.
This Improvement set in just as
soon as the old coffee poison had SO
worked out of my system as to allow
the food elements In the Postum to
ct hold to build me UP again. 1
cheerfully testify that It was Postum
ana Postum alone that did all this, for
when began to drink it threw
physic to the dogs" Name given by
