Summit Crater Aged Native
Predicts Big Outbreak.

Otto A. Bierbach and Vida Thrum,
who week ago made a round trip on
the steamer Iwalani to survey the VOL
canic outbreak, have returned bringing
information from a party that visited
the summit crater from Kilauea. that
While several fire fountains We're in full
activity there was no overflow of lava
from the crater as late as Wednesday
morning.
Last Monday Mr.. Bidgood, brother of
the present manager of the Volcano
House, with Wilson, an timer over
the mountain tracts, started en- route
to the scene of the outbreak. They
spent the night at the Monsarrat ranch
completing the ascent on Tuesday and
returning on Wednesday. They re-
ported fire fountains in actual play,
three of them being in a state of con-
siderable activity. Lava was issuing
from these and forming in wide streams
on the crater floor. The lava is also
bubbling up in several other places.
The crater is surrounded on three sides
by cliffs from five to seven hundred
feet in height. The opening from which
lava might flow is two miles distant
from the present fire fountain. It. is
thought that breach in the crater
run will be made and the actual dis
charge occur towards Punaluu. There
is no lava overflow.

NURSING MOTHERS

" A richer milk than milk !"
is good food for nursing
mothers. SCOTS Emulsion is
the rich cream of cod liver
oil, and contains ten times as
much cream as milk does.
The nursing mother must
eat with the purpose of pro-
ducing good, nourishing milk
for her baby. A little SCOTS
Emulsion is often a very wise
addition to her daily diet. IF
through nervousness or weak
ness her milk is a failure,
SCOTS Emulsion will help
make it a success.
Inc baby gets the benefit,
too, when the mother takes
SCOTS Emulsion. The same
remedy brings new strength
and nourishment to both.
