ALL DRUGGISTS SELL IT HKJYV I)KHOI,ATION OVKII rKHTILR HAWAIIAN LAND. Millions of ton of lava, which have been pouring from the great volcano of Kllaue during the pint three months, have burled approilmately twenty fir squar mile of country un der coating averaging loo feet In thlcknoM. The great flow, si res 111 1 ng In every direc tion from their source In the old rift, of 1808, mil are moving tlowly forward and at one point are irlthlo two mile of the eca. and twelve mile from th foun tain head. Tli glittering flood of crim son lava are coming from the southern dunk of KHauea. What was formerly a quiet expanse of anndy waste, dotted with green oases, now Is smoking tract of ruin and desolation. A few charred fragmenta mark the Ilea of former forext burled deep bull-nth th torrenta of molten atona ejected by, the volcano, Trained observer who huve watched Klluuea for many year say that It la extremely difficult lo find their way about or pick out the old lumhuerkl. Where. In former days, stretched the level sandy plain, plentifully sprinkled with olivines and vol canic rock, pow there rlncs a lava doiu three miles In length and upwards of 200 feet In height. Welling from an earthquake rift, flows have piled on lop of flows the crest creased by hot, cherry-red crack aome of which emit gns name. At the sum mit of the dome la a lurge hike of lava, nearly half a mile In length, having an average breadth of 3X) yards. From the surface of the lake lava foun tain are continually playing. Evidence of tremendous de struction are to be found In the section wher th lower forest used to Hand. Tull clil tree, now charred wrecks, but In some rase still burning, rise forlorn ly amid tbs general desolation. In on place there I to be seen the remnant of a heavy stone wall, which, before the last flow started, marke'd the boundary of the Kapapala ranch. The moving lava aurged against the wall, pushed It over and burled th greater length of It under the molten flood. The atretch of country aero which th present lava streams arc moving I a mast of under-the-iurface tube and tunnels formed by old flow, mostly In the great eruption of 1808. The present molten rivers, running through these and entering sealed caverns are continually blowing up the cavern roofs with loud explosions and shower of red-hot rock, which make de- tolled 'examination haxurdous. RUINED BY TIGHT PACKING Why Thtrt Should B a Certain Amount of Looseness Allowed In th Book Cat. Muny a good book bos been ruined by Uie way It la kept tn the case, ruck ing book o tight that they have to he pulled out by the loose binding nt the top of the back is ruinous. The binding toon break. It also tends to loosen the back of books to pack them tight, as they will cling to each other on the shelf and the binding works uwny from the page;. Don't puck your hooks so tight that they cannot he pulled eff the shelf without effort. A new bonk should be handled very carefully. Never open the book sud deiily. This Is a sure way to break the buck. Begin by laying Hie book on the table, opening first one cover, then the other, nnd then open n very few pages nt a time, laying them nl ternately flat on each other until the center of the book has been reached. In thli way tho glue on the buck of the book I cracked gently nud evenly and tho pages will not separate. How Scout May Aid Tree Census.

MAKE QUICK TRIP TO WORK How Miner In Tenne "Rid th Rail" Down Long and Stetp Mountain 8id. . The miner of the luman coal dis trict of Tennessee live on tho moun tain side, long distance froui the shaft openings of the mine In which they work. How they contrived to In vent a process to reach the mine In the valley below speedily and without fatigue la quite an Interesting story. One day some clever fellow dis covered that mule shoe would fit over the top of the T-roll that marked the course of the railway. The next step was to attach a short board and then slip the mountain rail tied over the track. Then all the miner had to do wus to alt down, pick up bis feet and trnnsKrt himself and dinner poll down the mountain to work. Karl: any morning the stranger can see the miner come along with their mule-shoe toboggans, calmly take n sunt and begin to descent. A pick handle, a stick or even the hoot serves aa a brake to regulate the speed of the sled. Sometimes two daring coal dig gers will race on opposite rolls from top to bottom. lint generally they tnke the trip cnrefully In order not to Interfere villi the rights of the road that may belong to a neighbor lu front of or behind them. Why Drink Water With MealiT Contrary to a long standing theory, water taken with meals Is now rec ommended. For years It has heen taught that water should not be drunk with nieuls, because such a procedure weakens the secretion of gastric Juice, also that digestion would be delayed or Inhibited. But It has now been proved that the drinking of water with meals stimulates the secretion of gas tric Juice, and that It causes Inhibition of the growth of Intestinal bacteria, that It produces an improved liver function, Hint It decreases Intestinal putrefaction, nnd that It enables the food to be ulllzed more economically further, the sullva acts more efficiently as an amylolytlc agent wheu diluted with water. For all these reasons we may Infer that It Is beneficial to drink water with meals, Why Corks Are Beit Stopper. The ancients kept their wines In ensks, and It was drawn off as wnnt- ed. When bottles first 'came Into use, primitive material used as stoppers consisted of 'the root of liquorice, which was cut and formed to the shape of corks, These roots are still often used In this country for the making of 'bottle stoppers, and It wns not till the manufacture of glassware became general that the practice arose of storing wine In bot tles, and then the value of cork as t stopper for bottles became generally acknowledged. Thence enme the say ing, "Tills wine Is corked" meaning It tastes of the cork. Impervlousness to air and water Is a rare quality which cork possesses over any other known material, and It conveys no disagreeable taste or flavor to the liquid. Why Tea Leayes Remove Scan. Painted wood marked and stained may be cleaned with tea leaves. After the tea has been made and used, take the leaves from the pot and place In a basin, Pour bolllmj water over them and let them remain In this for ten minutes. Dip a clean piece of flannel In the liquid and rub over the stained pieces. When the marks "have been removed I he surface should be rubbed with a dry cloth and on application .of llq'ikl vaseline applied. Rub this in so the dual effect Is not greasjr. - - W-SOM- MILADY'S CHIN WILL BE COMFY THIS YEAR Dam Fashion's ruling tn fur coat this winter ha at least tealed the mouth ot mere man.
