In thrfle days of tho "higher criti

shako the faith of the great mass of
Christians. In this as In most other
matters the noisiest faction is by no
means the strongest faction. Tho lilgh

tors aro few In number. In spite of a
groat deal of loose assertion to the
contrary it is constantly shown that,
rightly or wrongly, the Christian re
ligion Is the hope and trust and guide
of Jiiore people than ever before pro-fes-icd
It. Wo hear so much about the

and investigating mind, an earnest
Becker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa
thetic nature.
In 1843 she married Tsaac Pinkham.
a builder and real estate operator, ami
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sous and a
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common lor mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, nature's own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. By tradition and ex
perience many of them gained a won
derful knowledge ox the curative prop
erties of the various roots and herbs.
Jlrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power overdisea.se.
She maintained that juot as nature so
bountifully orovides in the harvest-
flclds and Orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of tho field there are remedies ex
pressly designed to cure tho various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these vas a rare combina
tion of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of tho ills and weaknesses pccti-
har to the female sex, and Lydia K. Pink
ham'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 of love.
But in 1873 tho financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of tho Pinkham family, a3 this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when thoCenten
nial year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of incomo had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkbam's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
Tho three sons and the daughter,
with their mother, combined forces to

restore tho family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
so good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for tho
women of tho whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, wltjro roots and
herbs wcro steeped on the stove,
gradually filling a gross of bottlco.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired a job
printer to run off BOine pamphlets
setting forth the merits of the medi
cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, and these were
distributed by the Pinkham sons in
isoston, New xwrlc, and Brooklyn.
The wonderful curative properties of
tho 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 enough money to com
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time r.io growth and success of
tlm enterprise were assured, until to
day Lydia K. Pinkham and her Vqjh.
table Compound have become noua-
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not
live to see TI'o great success of this
work. She passed to her reward years
ago, out not till sue had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During1 her lone; and eventful expo
rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful to pre
serve, a record of every case that came to
her attention. The "case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there were thousands received
careful study, and tho details, includ
ing symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records! together with
hundreds of thousands made since, aro
available to sick women tho world
over, and represent a vast collabora
tion of information regarding tho
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia R. Pinkham worked her
daughter-in-law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was cure fully instructed
in all her bard-won knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
To her hands naturally fell tha
direction of tho work when its origina.
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
live years she has continued it, and
nothing in tho work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her
pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother of a largo family, took
it up. With women assistants, some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs,
Pinkham continues this great work, and
probably from tho office of no othei
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. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound ; made
from simple roots and herbs; the omi
great medicine for women's ailments,
and the fitting monument to tho noble
woman whose nanio it bears.
