. continue the ascent
In the last 200 feet the top of the mountain
had been rent into hundreds OF clefts and
holes. through which steam constantly
escaped. The edge of the crater is mass
of black volcanic sand and pumice, with
outcrops of white and red rock The crater
is about 200 yards in diameter. and at a
depth Of 100 feet the vent decreases to fifty
feet. the steam escaping as though under

1t thus appears that the mighty streams
Of lava and volcanic ashes which from time
to time have inflicted so much destruction
and suffering upon the regions around the
mountain have reached the outer air through
a comparatively narrow vent. An erup-
ton In 1853 buried many plantations and
whole villages under thick mass of lava
and dust A similar calamity In 1914 killed
200 persons, and 500 lives were lost in the
eruption OF 1925.
Since that year there have been many
severe eruptions Of Mayor, including one
period in 1s88-s7 which continued about
nine months, the crater at times projecting
ashes, stones and igrcous vapors. In 1892
there was a very Doisy eruption which
greatly deformed the summit OF the crater

The expense Of this method OF living
Is commensurate with It's simplicity in

large enough for two people, is IS. II the
bachelor girl is alone q single portion is
sufficient for dinner and will lap over for
luncheon the next day. Tie breakfast
costs s.. 50 week for sin gle portion, but
it is seldom that this IL not found enough
for two, although like hotel portions it
varies in size.
In this way. and at this reasonable figure,
a small family can be served with WELL
cooked dinners at low prices. The trouble
of marketing and Incompetent servants
is done away with and with little additional
expense Injuries may be added in case Of
an unexpected guest.
The marketing is done by Aunt Mary
herself and the best the city affords in
vegetables, fruits, etc, is secured.
The kitchen is scene of great industry,
particularly in the late hours OF tho after
noon when the dinners are being put to-
gether ready to be sent out. Here the
cook is engrossed with her roasts, her
vegetables and her desserts and the maids
are employed dishing things up and run

Altogether the scheme of providing

There are, Of course. two sides to every
story except the love story. Tho other
side OF this story relates to the opinions
Of the patrons.
At one Of the big studios in Carnegie Hall
musician was visited and conversation
on this all absorbing topic Of feeding the
inner man ensued. He admitted that he
ordered his dinners In this way to save
time and expense.

ments leave me but little time and the
hours would spend dining here and there

he was sitting Mt the time with the basket
on chair in the studio. and paper was
propped up in front OF him.
This is the only objection that have to
the scheme" he admitted; -the tendency
that man has to revert to the primitive
as soon az he is left to himself.
People who have lived in the Arctic
regions tell mo that the worst thing that
has to be fought IL the susceptibility that .
man has. no matter how refined he may he
in civilization. to do away with all the little
niceties that he has thought important be-
fore. He degenerates into the merely
physical animal after very little while un-
less he takes the most strenuous caro- OF
himself
"Of course. this ian't exactly tho Arctic
regions, except from the point OF view that
every place that isn't warmed and invigor-
ated by woman's presence comes under
that head, and yet to certain extent the
temptations are along the same lines.

Two Americans recently reached the top

found and examined the crater at the sum-

that they are right in their assertion that
they were the first to reach the top of this
wideawake volcano.

natives are Of low intelligence. Polygamy

Every girl or woman is regarded as
property as much as cattle; and ruriously
enough the idea Of property in human
beings Is carried further than among most
tribes. The Wakamba hold that their
juvenile sons also are property.
