The one topic, paramount over all
others, at the state capital just now Ia
the Cooper murder trial which is now
dragging It's SOW length along in the
Supreme court of Kennebec county.
Ii has been a long time since there
has been a murder trial in Maine, where
there were SO many witnesses all in the
furtherance Of almost strictly circnm-
sfantia evidence. How long the trial
will last can only be conjectured. Hon.
Her bert NJ. Heath senior counsel. who
is making the strenuous efforts 70 clear
the woman, is throwing heart aud soul
into the trial, and so far has carried on
the cross-examinstion up to the last
notch.
Just what the tEial will cost is diff
cult to determine a. this time, but peo-
pie in Augusta acquainted with criminal
litigation figure that il will not be far
from $50, 900. 'See that yalise there
said Mr. Heath, pointing to his bag on
the table, well, do you know, there are
900 court de cisions there. and | can
haul one out at any time 10 fit any part
of this case 30 you see any time |
object to anything want to back it up
30 strong that the argument will be
clinched' At the present time the
Cooper trial threatens to break all
records for length of time consumed of
any murder trial in Maine 1t may run
two weeks longer, making four weeks
10 all.

Letter to Somerset Reporter Readers
Hyomel to Cure Catarrh or
1t Costs Nothing.

Editor of the Somerset Reporter
In view of the prevalence of catarrhal
troubles at this season of the year we
want to tell your readers that we have
never sold anything that gave more sat
isfaction than Hyomei, when used in
catarrhal troubles You get immediate
relief from the treatment, and consistent
use will prove to every sufferer as it
has to many of our customers the virtue
of this preparation.
Personally we are interested in Hyomei
for it is made and sold on honor, and we
do not want your money unless you are
benefited and satisfied.
There ia no stomach dosing in con.
nection with Hyomei. 1t is thoroughly
local treatment for local disease, and
its soothing, healing medication goes
direct to the spot where 1t is needed
The complete Hyomei outfit consists
of pocket inhaler, medicine dropper,
and bottle of Hyomei, and the price is
only 81, while additional bottles can be
obtained for so cents
We positively guarantee a cure when
Hyomei 10 used in accordance with di
recton, or we will refund your money.
This certainly shows our faith and be
lief in the virtues of Hyomei.
Yours very truly,
Sampson & Avore.

When Andrew Carnegie says that mil
lion Tres rarely laugh, he only tells US
something that men and women Of ex-
perience have known for a long time.
Wealth, or its savage and unrelenting
pursuit, does not bring happiness,
though right minded and benevolent
persons may use their wealth to bring
happiness TO others. Look at John D.
Rockefeller today. AS far as we eau
learn he ia recluse, in fear and tremb-
lirg for bis life, guarded by an armed
force, and probably not enjoying II
minute of happiness. The whstlng,
healthy mechanic, who starts out 10 his
work In the morning, with his dinner
pail, to earn his daily bread who in the
evening is greeted by loving wife and
children, is king in comparison. Don't
imagine that wealth brings happiness.

Fuchow has long been one OF the great
tea shipping ports of China, but in re-
cent years the business Of the port in all
lines has largely decreased. One Of our
Consuls attributes the decline of the port
to the incl easing consumption of opium
by the Chinese. He asserts that In the
wide mountain valleys back of Fuchow
and Annoy many thousands of farmers
have become slaves of the opium hs Bit and
10 longer give to their tea and ott er crops
the care that is necessary to provide prime
commoditits for market. In book
which we have recently seen, written by
Archibald Little, he says that opium is
the greatest menace to the future of
China. -Four years ago the late Francis
Nichols wrote that the number of opium
victims in Shansi and Shensi alone
reaches many thousands every year;
that nearly every town of any siz9 con-
tairs at least one opium retreat or cure,
and that Chinese Of all classes with
whom he talked see in opium the black
est and most foreboding cloud that
hangs over China.
