Death of Famous Pill Manufacturer Recalls
a Most Interesting Career—“Worth
a Guinea a Box.”
By the death of Mr. Thomas Beecham
at hla homo In Southport. England, on
Saturday. April c. a man whose name
was a household word In every hamlet,
village, town and olty on the face of
the globe haa passed Into the Great
Beyond, leaving his friends acquain
tance! and his commercial world to
mourn a most Interesting and lovabls
personality. He haa left a monument
to his memory In the gigantic business
establishment he crested and placed
upon a solid, lasting and prosperous
basis, and In the hearts of those who
know him both In business and In prl-
vate life.
Mr. Beecham was the founder of the
great pill manufactories In Europe and
America and which had their small be
ginning In the town of Wigan over half
a century ago. It soems almost In
credible that the great manufacturing
establishments of Beccham'e Pills
should have built their enormous suc
cess around an accidental remark
dropped by n lady customer, that these
Pills wero “Worth .a guinea a box.”
But this remark was the catchword,
the slogan of an advertising campaign
which, In 18(0, was roughly estimated
to cost 9500,000 a year—the largest
campaign of publicity and success
known to the commercial world. It
placed Mr. Beecham In the front rank
of men who had achieved a great suc
cess through natural aptitude and In
domitable energy.
Mr. B.cchatn, in business, laved
promptitude and had the thorough re
spect and love of his employees and
their full co-operation because of this
existing condition between employer
nnd employed. In the earlier days, be
fore the great developments had taken
place, lie waa In the factory at the
commencement of the day'e operations
until Its close, and was unceasing In
his watchfulness and care. His me
thodical habits Impressed themselves
upon those In his employ, and as a con
sequence hie world-famous Institu
tions. even from their beginning, were
models of order and cleanliness.
At the funeral which took place on
.Wednesday, April 10. at the 8t Helena
cemetery, the tribute paid to Mr.
'Beecham by the officiating clergyman,
the Rev. D. G. E. Cheeseman, fittingly
expresses the position held by the de
ceased In the esteem of those who know
him best. Dr. Cheoseman said In
part:
"Mr. Thomas Beecham was by na
ture a greatly gifted-man. He had a
genius for building up business, and
the foundations of the firm whoso rami
fications are now world-wide, were laid
by his far-seeing sagacity and perse-
verance. The man himself waa as re
markable aa the monument he has
reared to his name. He was trans
parently honeet. There were no lurking
deceits or cunning complexities In his
nature. He was open aa the dnyllglit,
a sincere and artless man, ne\\r pre
tending to be other than he was.
"He chose hid friends carefully, but
when once a friendship was formed
he was loysl to the core, never desert
ing a friend, never falling a friend In
adversity.
. "No man less ostentatious has lived
among us. When he gave to good
objects or deserving persons the gift
was generally secret, nor could he tol
erate that hla benefactions should be
biased abroad on subscription lists,
Oftener than even bis Intimate friends
suspected he would do good by stealth.
"lie was a model employer. Ho wns
on the friendliest personal footing
with all his employees Ills relation'
ship with hie staff of workers was ah
most luuriarchlal, and he never ah
lotqgd It to sink Into a mere money
nexus. His long lease of life waa the
reward which nature confers upon the
temperate."
Mr. Beecham was 86 years old. The
great establishment will be -continued
by his son and partner. Air. Joseph
Beecham, who has been for many
years an active factor In the conduct
of the business and who has personal
ly guided the tremendous advertising
campaign which has made Beccham's
Pills "worth a guinea a box,” a house
hold word In every civilised country.

PAVING CONTRACT
MISUNDERSTOOD
According to a statement made by
Colonel Clifford L. Anderson, chairman
of the board of county commissioners,
the board has no preference In regard
to who shall be given the contract for
the paving of Peachtree street . from
Sixth street to the city limits.- It was
stated In the local papers recently that
the county would agree to assist the
city In doing the work, provided S. H.
Venable should be given the contract.
It appears that the resolution adopt
ed by the commissioners was misin
terpreted. and that the condition was
“provided that S. H. Venable succeed*
In malting the contract with the city
for doing the work.” The condition was
based upon 5Ir. Venable and the city
reaching a satisfactory agreement, and
was not Intended to be arbitrary.
