The MAKING OF
4 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 s ills.
Over $50, 600 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.
II is 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
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound which we are continually pub.

of our best citizens in this county have

Who is speaking and working against

they have an unlimited fund for this
purpose.
There may be some speaking against
the measure from political motives to

following that may help to boost their

1t is safe to say that no single indi

amount of money necessary to dominate

President G. a. Ramsey OF the
Ardmore Chamber of Commerce
makes the following argument and
appeal for votes for the road bonds
tomorrow:
Every report from headquarters no"
shows that the battle has been won for
the state Good Roads Bond Bill just
as i'm other states similar bills have
been carried for the same purpose. 1t
only remains now for the voters TO 20

for the bonds and thus insure the com

one of the ten places where work will

AS the roads are now established by
the bill not less than Sl0,000,000 Of
the proceeds of the bonds will be spent
in this county and if the federal gov
ernment will match hte state funds
as the same shall be expended it will
mean not less than $4,000, 600 will be
spent in this county for hard surfaced
roads within the next five or six years
besides the amount that will be raised
each year for good roads other than the
state roads designated in the bill
If this measure carries this county
still retains its one-third of the gross
production tax to be divided equally

roads and one third of the auto tax for

needed to retire the bonds and pay the
annual interest will be the other two
thirds of the auto tax and the two
thirds of the gross production tax which |
is now being wasted on dirt roads |
