BRITIsHERs LOOKING THIS WAY

The Goldfed and Tonopah districts are indebted to Mr.. Francis P. Bray a
mino operator Of California, for N extended and quite accurate account of
these districts published in the March Sd issue Of the Mining Journal of Lon
don, the representative mining paper of Great Britain. now in its list year of
continuous publication. Up until lately the British people have had little ac
cmate knowledge of Southern Nevada fields, but through such accurate articles
in the best publications, they re becoming acquainted with our enormous op-
portunites for profitable mining investments. The British are the greatest
mining investors in the world, and they are no provincial in their operations;
and it is to be expected that before a great WHILE much British money will be
IN evidence in this section. Already the great Venture Corporation of London
the most extensive operator in the world, has opened an Office in Goldfed and.
is looking for mines The British investor is in every good camp in the country
and that he is fixing mis- eye Oh Southern Nevada is evidenced by the numerous
ate information.

Hoe Young Men and Women Are
Prepared for Commercial Life.

Business men nowadays have little time to
train young persons entering their offices in the

not tolerate a typewriter who has TO learn To-

stenographer who has yet to learn the pot
hooks. Changing times have left behind the
business office that also a school for the
employees. and have brought into existence the
business schools scattered at frequent intervals
