WHO SHE WA
SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF
And a True Story of Mow the Vegetable Compound
Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of '73' Caused
it to be Offered for Public Sale In Drug Stores.
."V-r-
1 This remarkable woman, whose
teaiden name was Estes, was born in
Lynn, Mass., February Oth, 1S19, com-tug-
from s good old Quaker family.
For some years she taught school, and
became known as a woman of an alert
cd investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledp-e, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully syinpa
thetlc nature.
! In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham
a builder and real estate operator, und
their eariw married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own homo medicines from roots
and herbs, nature's own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. I?y tradition and ex
perience many of them gained a won
derful Knowledge or tne curative prop,
ertics of the various roots and herbs.
1 Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
In tho study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics anrt power over disease
She maintained that just ss nature so
bountifully provides in the harvest-
nel'ls ana orchards vegetable ioous oi
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
'to find them, in tho roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-
firessly designed to cure the various
lis and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi
r eines fur her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a rare combina
tion of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the iljs and weaknesses pecu
liar to the female sex, and Lydia 12. Pink
nam's 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 oi love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of tne ruikham rsuniiy, as this eiass
'of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen
nial year dawned it found their prop
erty awept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At thin point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.

miscellaneous buttons :
"Xou seem to be unusually well sup

,there Is one like my husband had on his

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women oi the waoie woria.
Tho Pinkhame had no money, ami
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were steeped on the stove,
gradually Suing a gross of Dottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a Job
printer to run off some pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi
cine, now called Lydia u. nnithainn
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
Uoston, New lork, and isrooklyn.
Tho wonderful curative properties of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-advertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de
mand gradually increased.
In 1877. by combined efforts the fam
ily had saved enorgh money to com
mence newspaper advertising and irom
that time the growth and success of
tho enterprise were assured, until to
day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vege
table Compound have become Louse
hold words everywhere, and many
ions of roots and herbs are used annu
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
Diiring her long and eventful expe
rience she was ever methodicnl in her
work and she was alwayscareful to pre
serve a record of every case thatcame to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were thousands received
careful study, and the details, includ
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast collabora
tion of information regarding tne
treatment of woman's Ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her
daughter -in -law, tho present Mrs.
Pinkham. she was carefully instructed
in all her hard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when its origina
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother of a large family-, took
it up. With women assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this great work, and
probably from the office of no other
person have so many women been ad
vised how to regain health. Sick wo
men, this advice Is "Yours for Health"
freely given if you only write to ask
for it.
Such is the history of Lydia E. Pinlt
ham's Vegetable Compound ; made
from simple roots and herbs ; the one
great medicine for women's ailments,
and the fitting monument to the noble
woman whoso name it bears.

Beat Preparation for Wheat,
If I could have my choice of ground
to sow on, says a Pennsylvania farmer,
I would chooso a field where a heavy
clover sod, or where cowpeus had been
plowed down and potatoes raised the
oresent year, using at least 1.500 nounda
high-grade fertilizer on the potatoes,
The potatoes bavins been kept clean,
and dug In good time, I would not plow
for the wheat, but harrow at least four
or Ave times, and then drill In the
wheat, drilling with it 400 pounds of
pni.l fprtiliKor with lonsr !t nir runt
quickly available nitrogen, 8 per cent
mhosnhorle acid and ner cent notasti.

Thou in the spring, if it did not start to
row promptly, I would sow broadcast,
150 pounds nitrate of soda per acre.

has been found possible to produce the
flavor of the required cheese from the
milk of any locality by introducing tho
appropriate plants. In a recent paper,
for example, C. Corlni shows that the

but they ore not clcaued as frequently
as should be the case. In winter, if
the yard contains absorbents, they ho
coins soaked during rains, and are dis
agreeable locations for pl'. Tho pig
prefers a dry location, as It suffers so
verely on damp, cold days. The ma

service If added to the manure heap
and a plentiful supply of cut straw

The Selection, of Seed Corn.
There is no time which is put lu to
better advantage or which fetches a
larger return than that devoted to se
lecting the seed corn during the latter
part of September aud the first half of
October. The advantnge which secur
ing the seed ears at this time has over
the ordinary method of selecting at
husking time lies In the fact that a
choice of tho earliest maturing ears
can be made, a distinction that Is im
possible wheu all of the crop Is ripe
I and ready to husk. For all the north
hair ot the corn belt that type of corn
is best which bears its ears low on the
stalk. This means as a rule that such
corn will mature early, and while the
ears produced may not bo quite bo
large as those which ope has to reach
above his head after they are much
moro likely to prgduce hard corn, which
will keep after It is put In the crib. The
I shape and depth of kernel and form
and type of ears are of very trivial Im-
portanco as compared with tho main
question as to whether the corn itself
I Is of a variety which will mature a
crop in the latitude In which It Is
planted.
Pop Corn In Nebraaka.
About 2,500 acres of pop corn are

2,000 pounds, though double that
amount lias been recorded In a few in-
stances. The average price for the last
ten years Has been a little more than
$1 100 pounds, giving a gross return
' upward of 5110 an acre. During the

Thcro are two classes of remedies; tl:oso of known qual
ity und vvhlcli aro permanently beneficial In elTeet, aetlnjr
gently, In Larmony witu nature, when iiaturo needs assist
ance; and another class, composed of preparations of
unknown, uncertain and Inferior character, acting tempo
rarily, but Injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural
functions unnecessarily. Ono of tho most exceptional of
tho remedies of known quality nl execllctico Is the ever
pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured ly tho California
Fig" Syrup Co., which represents the uctivo principles of
plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup,
in which tho wholesome Califoruian Hue i!?:s tiro used to con
tribute" their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It Is tho remedy
of all remedies to sweeten and refresh himI cleauso tho system
gently and natnrally, and to assist one in overcoming consti
pation and tho many ills resulting therefrom. Its active princi
ples and quality aro known to physicians generally, and the
remedy has therefore met with their approval, ns well as with
the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know
of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience
that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that
It will cure all manner of ills, but recommend It for what it really
represents, a laxative remedy of known qunlity und excellence,
containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character.
There are two classes of purchasers; those who aro Informed
as to tho quality of what they buy and the rcusous for the excellence
of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not Uck courago to go
elsewhere when a dealer offers an Imitation of any well known
article; but, unfortunately, there aro eoiuo people who do not know,
and who allow themselves to bo Imposed upon. They cannot expect
its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy.
To tho credit of tho druggists of the United States bo it said
that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional

imitations of tho
