"Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered ourselves.'' No one can realize the suffering attendant upon an attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual experience. There is probably no disease that causes so much physical and mental agony, or which so successfully defies medical aid. \ All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Cliamberlain's Cough Remedy. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneumonia or that has not recovered. For sale by Kaufmami Drug Co.'

WHO SI SKETCH OF THE LIFE And a True Story of How Had Its Birth and How it to be Offered for Pi This remarkable woman, whose maiden name was Estes, was born in Lynn, Mass., February 9th, 1819, coming from a good old Quaker family. For some years she taught school, and became known as a woman of an alert and investigating mind, an earnest seeiker after knowledge, and above all, possessed of a wonderfully sympathetic nature. In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkhara. a builder and real estate operator, and their early married life was marked by prosperity and happiness. They had four children, three sons and a daughter. In those good old fashioued days it was common for 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 experience many of them gained a wonderful knowledge of the curative properties of the various roots and herbs. Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest in the study of roots and herbs, their characteristics and power over disease. She maintained that just as nature so bountifully provides in the harvestfields and orchards vegetable foods of all kinds; so, if we but take the pains ^ -? ' ? j i - J 1 1_ - To una mem, in me roots a.nu nerus of the field there are remedies expressly designed to cure the various ills and weaknesses of the body, and it was her pleasure to search these out, and prepare simple and effective medicines for her own family and friends. Chief of these-was a rare combination of the choicest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses peculiar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pinkham'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, without money and without price, as a labor of love. But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were too much for the large real estate interests of the Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when the Centennial year dawned it found their property swept away. Some other source of income had to be found. At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's vegetable compound was maae Known to the world.

They argued that the medicine which was so good for their woman friends and neighbors was equally good for the women of the whole world. The Pinkhams 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 before they had given it away freely. They hired a job printer to run off some pamphlets setting forth the merits of the medicine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these 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 demand gradually increased. In 1877, by combined efforts the family had saved enough money to commence newspaper advertising and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise were assured, until today Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vegetable Compound have become household words everywhere, and manytons Of roots and herbs are used annually 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. During her long and eventful experience she was ever methodical in ner work and she was always 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 hundreds of thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collaboration of information regarding the 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, the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her vstst correspondence. To her hands naturally fell the direction of the work when its originator passed away. For nearly twentyfive years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when the first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her tpen, 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. Finkham continues tms great work.ana probably from the office of no other person have so many women been advised how to regain health. Sick women, this advice is "Yours for Health" freely given if you only write to ask fcr it. Such is the history of Lydia E. Pinkham'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 whose name it bears. fsnsio iPlnihinff UUSId) UaUlliill^ E NEW STORE. :ons in Lexington that we are once more formerly enjoyed, only entirely different, 1 a stock of entire new goods which were ill readily see by calling at Fitzmanrice's ore cost yon. nothing.
