LYDIA E. PINKHAM A BRIEF SKETCH OF HER LIFE How the Vegetable Compound Had Its Birth ana How the "Panic of '73" Caused it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores. THE STORY READS LIKE A ROMANCE SAKHAROFF ASSASS1HATE0 6YWQMAN REV0LUT10KIST The Murdres Called at Horn of the General and Fired Three Revolver Shots at Him. This remarkable woman, whose maiden name was Estes, was born In Lynn. Mass.. February 9th. 1819, con ing from a good old Quaker family. For many years she taught scnooi, ana during her career as a teacher she be came known as a woman of an alert and investigating mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all, she was possessed with a wonderfully sympathetic nature. In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham a builder and real estate operator, and had so often made from roots and herbs for 6uch of her women neigh bors and friends who were sick and ailing. Its success In those cases had been wonderful Its fame had spread, and calls were coming from miles around for this efficacious vegetable compound. They had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory was the kitchen, where roots and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling a gross of bottles. Then came the question of selling It, for always be fore they had given It away free. They hired a job printer to run off some pamphlets setting forth the mer its of the medicine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these pamphlets were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York and Brooklyn. The 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 family had saved enough money to commence newspaper advertising on a small scale, and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise was assured, until to-day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vegetable Compound have become household words every where, and thousands of pounds of London. The St. Petersburg corre spondent of the Daily Telegraph, In a dispatch dated December 6, sent Tla Edythkunen, East Prussia, says: "Lieutenant General Sakha.ro fT, for mer minister of war, was assassinated today. "The government had deputed Gen eral Sakharoff to visit the province of Saratoft for the purpose of quelling the agrarian riots there. "A woman belonging to the so- called 'flyins column" of the revolt tionary movement, called at the house of the governor of Saratoff at noon Wednesday and asked to see General Sakharoff. "She fired three revolver shots at the general, killing him on the spot. "The event has created a profound impression in St. Petersburg, owing to tears that the revolutionists here will follow the example thus set." 8HIP SUBSIDY BILL REVIVED.

Pinkham passed to her reward some years ago, the per petuation of her great work was guarded by her foresight. During her long and eventful experi ence she was ever methodical ln her work and was careful to preserve 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 the details. Includ ing symptoms, treatment and results, were recorded for future reference, and to-day these records, together with thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and repre sent a vast collaboration of informa tion regarding the treatment of wom an's ills which, for authenticity and accuracy, can hardly be equaled in any library in the world.. Another act of foresight on the part of Lydia E. Pinkham was to see that some one of her family was trained to carry on her work, and with that end ln view, for years before her death, had as her chief assistant her daughter-in-law, the present Mrs. Pinkham Therefore, under the guidance and careful training of Lydia E. Pinkham, and a vast experience of her own, covering twenty-five years, the present Mrs. Pinkham is exceptionally well equipped to advise sick women, which she is always glad to do free of charge. The record of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made of simple herbs and roots, is a proud and peer less one. It is a record of constant conquest over the obstinate ills of women, greater than that of any other one medicine of its kind ln the world, and will ever stand as a monument to that noble woman whose name Its bears. four children, three sons and a daugh ter. In those good old-fashioned days few drugs were used ln medicines; people relied upon nature's remedies, roots and herbs, which are to-day recognized as more potent and efficacious ln con trolling diseases than any combination of drugs. Mrs. Pinkham from her youth took a deep Interest ln medicine, in botany the study of roots and herbs, their characteristics, and power over dis ease; she believed that as nature so bountifully provides food for the body so she also provides medicine for the Ills and weaknesses of the body, ln the roots and herbs of the field, and as a wife, mother and sympathetic friend, she often made use of her knowledge of roots and herbs ln pre paring medicines for her family and friends. Knowing of so much suffering among her sex, after much study and re search, Mrs. Pinkham believed that the diseases of women have a com mon cause, and she set to work to And a common remedy not at that 'time as a source of profit, but simply 'that she might aid the suffering. How her efforts have been rewarded the women of the world know to-day. In 1873 the financial crisis 'Struck Lynn. Its length and severity was too much for the large real estate inter ests of the Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from this fearful depression, so when the Centennial year dawned it found their property swept away. At this point the history of Lydia E. Pinkham s Vegetable Compound com mences : The three sons and daughter, with their mother, combined forces to re store the family fortune.
