This company has a neat history. Dr. James B Lynas started making family remedies in 1866 in Logansport. They soared in popularity with people traveling great distances to get them. He had up to 1500 people selling nationwide and was one of the first unofficial franchises in the USA by the late 1890s. The business soon became too large and he had to build a laboratory to accommodate the huge demand. By 1900, he had offices in Tokyo, Paris, London, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, and Atlanta, and his workforce had increased to 6 thousand selling his products, many of whom traveled the country in horse-pulled carts. He was known for walking to work every morning wearing a morning coat and silk top hat.
