Her lawsuit inspired the group of five women who went on to settle their historic and unprecedented lawsuit against the U.S. Radium Dial Corporation in 1928. Marguerite, like her sister, Sarah Carlough Maillefer, lost her life to radium poisoning. However, she saved countless lives by demanding how dial painters applied paint. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"8tn71\" data-offset-key=\"fn0pp-0-0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-offset-key=\"fn0pp-0-0\" class=\"_1mf _1mj\"\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"fn0pp-0-0\"\u003e\u003cbr data-text=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"8tn71\" data-offset-key=\"4m1e3-0-0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-offset-key=\"4m1e3-0-0\" class=\"_1mf _1mj\"\u003e\u003cspan data-offset-key=\"4m1e3-0-0\"\u003e\u003cspan data-text=\"true\"\u003eLearn how Marguerite’s bravery ended the practice of ‘lip pointing.’ The artwork created for Marguerite's paper doll is my artistic interpretation of her likeness based on the sources available to me.
