MRS. PETERSON'S'STORY.
I hnvo sufTercd wltli womb troublo
over Uf teen years. J had inflammation,
enlargement nnd displacement of tho
womb.
Tho doctor wanted me to tnko treat
ments, but I had just begun taking
Mrs. I'inkiiam's
Compound, and
my husband
Bald 1 had
better wait
and sec
how much
good that
would do
mo. I was'
so sick when I
began with hqr
medicine, I could
hardly be on my
feet. I had tho
backache con
stantly, also headache, and
was so dizzy. I had heart trouble, it
seemed as though my heart was in my
throat at times choking me. I could
not walk around and I could not Ho
down, for then my heart would beat bo
fast I would feel as though I was
Bmothcring. I had to sit up in bed
nights in order to breathe. I was bo
weak I could not do auythlng.
I iiave now taken Beveral bottles of
Lydla K. Plnkhnm's Vegetable Com
pound, nnd used three packages of
Sanative Wash, and can say I am
perfectly cured. I do not think I
could have lived long if Mrs. Pink
ham's medicine had not helped me.

SHERIFF MARTIN'S CASE
Concluded from Page 1.
'Would you lay aside your opinion
in tho trial of this casoV
"1 would."
"Take the Juror," said Mr. Martin.
"Your position Is like this: You rend
of tho case and formed an opinion
which it would take evidence to re
move," asked Mr. Lenahan.
"Yes."
"Vou can't state If your opinion
would color or Iniluence your Judg
ment?'' "I cannot."
Mr. Lenahan challenged for cause
which wns overruled.
Mr. Lenahan objected and the Judge
said It was impossible to have a man
read a newspaper nnd not form an
opinion.
"If that requirement wera demanded
,wo would never get a Jury."
Lenahan had the .juror stand aside
and he was excused from further at
tendance. Four other Jurors who wero exam
ined either were opposed to capital
punishment or had formed an opinion
which could not be shaken.
SEVEN JL'RORS SECURED.
At 11.40 Aaron Fall, rope maker, of
Wllkes-Barre, was accepted as the
third juror. Alfred Stevens, clerk of
Wilkes-Barre, was the fourth juror to
enter the box. A. H. Shields, carpen
ter, of Wilkes-Barre, thought li'o could
render a just verdict in accordance
with the evidence. He passed muster
on both sides and took 'his seat. He
was allowed to go to the box as the
fifth juror. Herman Gregory, farmer,
of Hunting township, raid he had read
of the ease but had no fixed opinion.
He was sworn as the sixth juror. Ad
am I.arvon, tinsmith of Susrar Loaf
township, svvoro he was not prejudiced
one way or the other and he was ac
cepted as the seventh juror. Thomas
Brown, one of the defendants, who
failed to answer when his name was
called at the morning session, appeared
before the bar and plead not guilty.
He then took 1.1s place with tho other
deputies. At G.50 the court announced
tnat no more jurors would be examined
for the day and adjournment was tak
en until 9 o'clock tomorrow.
In all forty jurors wero examined.
The work of examining them was very
slow and tedious. It is expected that
the other five Jurors will be secured
by noon tomorrow.
