THE MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE
How Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Womau's Use.

A visit to the laboratory where this
successful remedy is made impresses
even the casual looker-on with the reli-
ability, accuracy, skill and cleanliness
which attends the making of this great
medicine for woman's ills.
Over $50, 900 pounds of various herbs
are used annually and all have to be
gathered at the season of the year when
their natural juices and medicinal sub
stances are at their best
The most successful solvents are used
to extract the medicinal properties from
these herbs.
Every utensil and tank that comes in
contact with the medicine is sterilized
and as final precaution in cleanliness
the medicine is pasteurized and sealed
in sterile bottles.
It il the wonderful combination Of
roots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in its preparation
which has made this famous medicine
so successful in the treatment Of
female ills.
The letters from women who have
been restored to health by the use Of

Manse, but no one else was to be SEEN

through the mist-six old veterans Just
risen from their graves; four tiny boy
scouts hardly yet born and two young
men Of the present carrying a bugle and
flag.
They went first to the British grave
and for the first time in history they laid
on it England's flag and branch of New
England apple blossoms; they saluted,

the same for the minuteman and his flag
Then they stood in line on the bridge

this is new program of service
through which the town and the peo-

the League has divided the town into
four wards with captain in charge

captain are lieutenants and various
