The last eruption occurred in 1007. An olhoc,onc is not now onlv duo, hut from Mn roll of the present year wo have heon aide to detect eidenees of the gradual, but certain, renwnkeniug of the volcano. The, bottom resembles very much n huge plntfonn covered with im mense rocks nnd also perforated with fumnrole from which guc nnd vnpors are' nhvays being exhaled. It was in this plntfonn. following tnv first deccnt into the emter when I found unmistakable signs of the re awakening of the volcano, tit t) t a lingo opening was Inter found. It hud u circumference of IfiO meter. nnd n depth of 70. In the formntion of this and in the fire which ppnrod out afterwards the flag I had nlnnt od at the bottom of the onitor on the occasion of my first dc-oont was completely destroyed. This opening took plnee on May 30, nnd f r n month afterward there was not Vinly n cjroitnnt ivturing forth of gn'.rs nnd vnor-, but alo of fire which nt times was omitted in gigmitio blasts of nn nVpalliug im Uuv.

In making this final de.-eoiit, we found the entire interior of the mouth iiioru-tcd with formations whioji showed unmixtukiihtv Hint dur ing the month of .Inly molten lava roo to the very bottom of tho ora tor. From whero we were obliged to stop in our decent, efforts to take the temperature deeper down proved futile. The 11nt time a thermometer was lowered by menus of a cable wire, the tlioniioinotor disappeared mul tlio cablo was pulled back, com pletely oxidized by the ga-o-. The second attempt resulted oven orc, the cable coming back in a fu-od stnto as u rc.Milt of the heat. llOSTOX, Mnes..

Only the MOST COM PLETE TOBACCO ORGANI ZATION IN THE WORLD, working with unlimited resources and infinite pa tience, COULD produce a cigarette like OMAR. From our own experts in Turkey we secured the MOST SUITABLE VARIE TIES of Turkish leaf. The greatest leaf -experts in America selected the do mestic tobaccos for OMAR. Hundreds of trial blends were then made, working always for the PERFECT BLEND. When we had a blend the equal of any al ready on the market, we considered it only as a START. . When we Finally Per fected the OMAR blend, we KNEW we had pro duced a cigarette which would sweep the country from coast to coast. OMAR is a combination of tobaccosNEVER BEFORE USED. It has all the at tractive SNAP and LIFE of the Turkish Blend--without the least "rough ness." OMAR can be SMOKED ALL DAY LONG with thorough enjoy ment. The success of OMAR is unparalleled in cigarette history. The fascination OMAR has for American smokers has literally rev olutionized the cigarette sales of the 'United Statw in LESS THAN 4G0 BAYS.
