The MAKING OF
A FAMOUS
MEDICINE.
How Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Is Prepared For
Woman'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
N sterile bottles.
1t is the wonderful combination OF
coots and herbs, together with the
skill and care used in itS preparation
which has made this famous m edicine

SYNOPSIS.


CHAPTER I.-Major Anderson had
made fortune in 1913 when other people
were losing fortunes, and the magnilicenoe
OF The AmbersonS began then. Major Ann
person laid out 2yO-acre development,
with roads and statuary, and in the centre
or fOur-acre tract, on ANDERSON avenue,
built for himself the most magnificent
mansion the Midland City had ever seen.
CHAPTER II.-When the majors
daughter married young WILDER Mnafer
the neighbors predicted that as Isabel
could never really love Wilbur all her
ioVe would be bestowed upon the children.
mere was only one child, however
George Anderson Mnafer, but his up
bringing and his youthful accomplish
inenls as mischief maker were quite in
keeping with the most pessimlstic predic-
tons.
CHAPTER III.-By the time George
went away to college he did not attempt
TO conceal his belief that the Ambersons
were about the most important family in
the world At a ball given in his honor
When he returned from college, George
monopolized Lucy Morgan, stranger and
the prettiest girl present, and got on IA
mously with her until he learned that a
queer looking duck at whom he had
been poking much fun. was the young
lady's father. He was Eugene Morgan, a
former resident Of Bigburg, and he was
returning there to erect a factory and to
build horseless carriages of his own in
vention.
CHAPTER IV-Eugene was an old ad-
mirer of Isabefs and they had been en-
gagged when Isabel threw him over be-
cause of some youthful indiscretion and
married Wilbur Mnafer
CHAPTER V.-Gecrge makes rapid
progress in his courtship of Lucy.
CHAPTER VI-While driving with
Lucy, next day, George allows the horse
to get beyond control, and the animal
overturns the cutter, spilling George and
Lucy in the snow, unhurt, although
George is greatly annoyed
CHAPTER VII.-George reveals intense
dislike of Morgan, whom he suspects of
financial designs on his uncle or grand
father. His aunt, Fanny Minafer, to his
great establishment, sharply rebukes him.
CHAPTER VIII-Home on vacation,
George has heart-to-heart talk with his
mother, in which the state OF the family
finances and his fathers failing health,
both figure. George is optimistic as to
both.
CHAPTER IX-Hearing rumors con-
corning Lucy and her suitors-in particu-
lar Fred Kinney-George urges her to
consent to formal engagement of mar
riage, but Lucy refuses.

CHAPTER X.

That night George began Jubilant
warfare upon his Aunt Fanny, open
ing the campaign upon his return
home at about eleven o'clock. Fanny
had retired, and was presumably
asleep, but George, on the way to his
own room, paused before her door,
and serenaded her in full baritone:
"As I walk along the Boy de Balong
With my Independent air,
The people all declare,
He must be a millionairev
Oh you hear them sigh, and wish to die,
And see them wink the other eye
At the man that broke the bank at Monte
Carlo!"
After breakfasting in bed, George
spent the next morning at his grand
fathers and did not encounter his
Aunt Fanny until lunch, when she
seemed to be ready for him.
"Thank you so much for the sere-
made, George!' she said. "Your poor
father tells me he'd just got to sleep
for the first time in two nights, but
after your kind attentions he lay
awake the rest of last night"
Perfectly true" Mr.. Minafer said
grimly.
"Of course, l didn't know, sir"
George FASTENED to assure him. I'm
awfuly sorry. But Aunt Fanny was
so gloomy and excited before I went
out, last evening, thought she needed
cheering up"
He turned to his mother. "What's
the matter with grandfather"
Didn't you see him this mornlng"
Isabel asked.
eyes. He was glad to see me, and
all that, but he seemed pretty fidgety.
Has he been having trouble with his
heart again?'
mot lately. No."
"Well, he's not himself. What's he
upset over?"
Isabel looked serious; however, it
was her husband who suggested gloom
lily, 81 suppose the Majors bothered
about this Sydney and Amelia bust
ness, most likely.
'What Sydney and Amelia bust
ness?" George asked.
"YOur mother can tell you, If she
wants to-" Minafer said. "It's not my
side of the family, so keep Off"
"Its rather disagreeable for all of
us, George" Isabel began. "YOu see,
your Uncle Sydney wanted a diplo-
matte position, and he thought Brother
George, being in congress, could ar
range it. George did get him the offer
of a South American ministry, but
Sydney wanted a European ambassa-
dOrship, and he got quite indignant
with poor George for thinking he'd
take anything Sunderland he be-
lleves George didn't work hard enough
for him George had done his best, Of
course, and now he's out of congress,
and won't run again-so there's Sgd
ney's idea Of big diplomatic position
gone for good. Well, Sydney and your
Aunt Amelia are terribly disappoint-
ed, and they say they've been thinking

therew he said. 81 didn't mean any
thing. OF course the only thing to do
about Aunt Amelia is to pay no atten-
tion to her. It's all right, Aunt Fanny.
Don't cry. feel lot better now, my
self. Come on; I'll drive back there
with you. It's all over, and nothing's
the matter. Can't you cheer up?"
Fanny cheered up; and presently the
customarily hostile aunt and nephew
were driving out Anderson boulevard
amiably together in the hot sunshine.
Continued next week.

sharply.
"At Lucy's. only came back to get
some embroidery, because we found
the sun too hot for driving. haven't
time to talk now, George; I'm going
right back. l promised your mother"
"YOu listen !" said George.
"What on earth"
He repeated what Amelia had said.
This time, however, he spoke cOldly,
and without the emotion he had ex-
hibited during the recital to his uncles
Fanny was the one who showed agita-
ton during this interview, for she
grew fiery red, and her eyes dilated.
"What on earth do you want to bring
such trash to me for?'" she demanded,
breathing fast.
II merely wished to know two
things: whether it is your duty or
mine to speak to father of what Aunt
Amelia"
Fanny stamped her foot. you lit

you want to go troubling him with AN

"Then you're sure there isn't any
talk?"
Fanny disdained a reply in words.
She made kissing sound Of utter con-
tempt and snapped her fingers. Then
she asked scornfully: whats the
other thing you wanted to known"
Georges pallor increased. whether
it mightn't be better, under the cir
cumstances," he said, 'if this family
were not so intimate with the Morgan
family-at least for a time. 1t might
be better"
Fanny stared at him incredulously.

II hadn't thought of that side Of II

account of talk about my mother, I

gested that if all of us-for time
perhaps only for a time-it might be
better if"
"See here" she interrupted. "We1l
settle this nonsense right now. If Eu-
gene Morgan comes to this house, for
instance, to see me, your mother can't
get up and leave the place the minute
he gets here, can she? What do you
want her to do: insult him? Or per-
haps you'd prefer she'd insult Lucy?
That would do just as well. What is
1t you're up to, anyhow Do you really
love your Aunt Amelia so much that
you want to please her? Or do you
really hate your Aunt Fanny so much
that you want to-that you want to"
She choked and sought for her hand
kerchief; suddenly she began to cry.
"Oh, see here" George said. II don't
hate you, Aunt Fanny. That's silly.
don't"
"You dol You dol You want to-
you want to destroy the only thing
that THAT I ever" And, unable to
continue, she became inaudible In her
handkerchief.
George felt remorseful, and his own
troubles were lightened: all at once II
became clear to him that he had been
worrying about nothing. He perceived
that his Aunt Amelia was indeed an
old cat and that to give her scandal
Gus meanderings another thought
would be the height of folly. BY no
means insusceptible to such pathos as
that now exposed before him, he did

not lack pity for Fanny, whose almost
spoken confession was lamentable;
and he was granted the vision to un-
derstand that his mother also pitied
Fanny infinitely more than he did.
This seemed to explain everything.
He patted the unhappy lady awk-
wardly upon her shoulder. "There,
