A Scranton vitisen Il Pleased to Do

Here's case Of 1t:
Mrs. e. Williams, Of 1s7 North Sum-

severe pain in the small OF my back
extending upward and around my
waist. At night 1t was impossible to
sleep very long In one position and at
times the pain made me so nervous
l lay awake for hours turning from
comfortable position. There was also
kidney weakness that was very an
noying and distressing at times. I
was in such misery that I was unable
to do my work about the house. and
in fact was completely used up. I
resorted to the services of doctor and
he did me some good. but was far
from being a we'll woman. A lady
friend recommended Doan's Kidney
Pills to me so highly that I got them
at Matthews Bros. drug store. The

Wants a New Trial.

Reasons why the verdict should be
set aside and a new trial granted We're
filed yesterday by Attorney G. Balen-
tine in the case of Michael Cunning
ham. who was tried last week for
committing an aggravated assault and
battery on John Astock.
1t is alleged that the indictment on
which Cunningham was tried was not
signed by the foreman Of the grand
jury; that there was not sufficient
proof Of the loss Of the original indict-
ment and that the court erred in re-
celvins verdict in No. I, when the
defendant and his counsel We're wait
ing in No. 2 for the verdict T., be re.
turned,the case having been tried there
before Judge Love. No opportunity Y
was given the defendant to poll til
jury. 1t is also alleged that il is not
the verdict Of the jury for tie reason
that it was the intention to convic.
the defendant of simple assault ard
battery.
